Return to Castle Wolfenstein Review [PC]
I would say alongside ‘Max Payne’ this game had to be one of the most eagerly awaited titles of last year. I never really got to enjoy the original Wolfenstein (mainly because I didn’t have a PC till two years after its release!) but when I......

Red Faction Review [PC]
All the time games come out that you’ve heard almost nothing about or one that claims to be “The next big thing”, yet you soon realise is just another run-of-the mill title to add to the hordes of wannabe titles. First person shooters are......

Aliens Versus Predator 2 Review [PC]
I wasn’t keen on this when I first saw it. Ben showed me magazine after magazine of screenshots but it didn’t matter to me. I thought this has been done before, and when I read the blurb that went with the previews I hardly saw any difference......

For you people who were living in a cave last year, Operation Flashpoint was a PC game that was very popular and became a very big title for 2001. When you look at the box the first thing you say is “It’s a first person shooter”, well......

Max Payne Review [PC]
Perhaps one of the most talked about and eagerly anticipated games of last year, Max Payne finally reached the shelves. It was doubtful at times whether or not this title was ever going to make it to a fully fledged PC game as many thought it was......

Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Review [PC]
With Star Wars Episode 2 now upon us, like me you may have gone a little Star Wars crazy a few months back. You might not have got to that stage where you don a dark cape, helmet and start practicing your heavy breathing skills, but you might have......

Battlefield 1942 Review [PC]
I’ve read three reviews of B1942 already (damn, they were quicker than me to get them out!), and each one has said the same thing… “You cannot compare Battlefield 1942 to Medal of Honor”. Why the hell not?!?
To be quite honest......

Unreal II: The Awakening Review [PC]
The original Unreal was a success. Not only did it break the Quake engine's stranglehold of the FPS market, offering itself to be a healthy competitor, but it also helped opened up the whole multiplayer deathmatch phenomenon which still influences......

Freelancer Review [PC]
Once upon a time, in the good ‘ol days of yore, came a game called Elite. Released originally on the BBC Micro way back in 1984, and later on numerous platforms thereafter. It was in was in a class of its own. One of the first games to ever......

Vietcong Review [PC]
The demo of Vietcong was released a while ago now, last year sometime. Suffice to say it was way before the release date of the retail game. The Vietcong demo was a multiplayer mission called ‘Save the Pilot’ where gamers would play as the US......

Star Trek: Elite Force II Review [PC]
Star Trek fans are only too aware that great games based on this popular Sci-fi series are a rare commodity. Trek games seem to suffer from a curse of being incredibly average, almost like the famous Star Trek film curse where only the even number......

Battlefield 1942: Galactic Conquest Mod Review [PC]
Summer gaming for me has been a bit of a let down. There has been very little released that has caught my eye, and the games I was looking forward to are suffering from countless delays. This issue has forced me, unwillingly of course, to endure......

Max Payne 2 Review [PC]
Sequels are always very difficult thing to get right. A sequel has to somehow be just as exciting, fresh and innovative as the first one, yet still be a logical jump from the first instalment without spoiling it. Add too little and people complain......

Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III Review [GameCube]
2004 can expect to see a whole load of Star Wars related titles in the run up to the 2005 release of Episode III, just so that you don’t forget about the event that occurred all that time ago in that galaxy far, far away. Nintendo console owners......

Far Cry Review [PC]
When I bought Unreal Tournament 2004 I was in my element, blasting away at those lovely looking polygons and generally thinking “my pc is cool! Much better than my consoles!” as you do. You see, I have quietly got bored of waiting for Doom3......

X2 - The Threat Review [PC]

Unreal Tournament 2004 Review [PC]
For the last five years the FPS genre has been dominated by the multiplayer deathmatch shooter. Single player epics have pretty much been relegated on the side lines whilst this deathmatch phenomenon takes hold. How long this phase in the FPS......

Doom 3 Review [PC]
Doom 3, it's been lingering in the world of speculation, rumour, counter rumour and leaked alpha's for what to many Doom fans and FPS addicts must seem like an age. It's finally here though (hence the review, obviously), but is it too late?......
