WTF SCEI Reviewed On: PSP Street: 10.17 Have you ever wanted to be a worker in a Third World labor market? Does the term ‘sweat shop’ make you tingle? Does pointless repetition really melt your butter? If you answered yes to any of these questions then not only do you have a problem, but I

Prey Human Head Studios Reviewed On: XBox 360 / PC Street: 07.11 It seems that sci-fi first person shooter (fps) games are everywhere these days. Games like Halo, Half Life and Doom (and all of their sequels) have established this genre as big money for game developers and guaranteed plenty of mediocre rip offs for gamers.

FlatOut 2 Bugbear/Vivendi Reviewed On:Xbox Street: 08.06 Last year Bugbear released FlatOut to some fairly dismal reviews. Not one to give up so easily, they climbed back up on the mighty horse of game development and released FlatOut 2 and this time around things are much improved. I started out with some derby racing, which

Pocket Racers Konami Reviewed On:PSP Street: 11.06 One in a while I encounter a game that is so flawed (not only in execution but in story and game play) that there is almost a fascination in playing it just to bear witness to it’s mediocrity. Pocket Racers is about a bunch of hip youth whose

Race Driver 2006 Sumo Digital/Codemasters Reviewed On:PSP Street: 06.06 There are plenty of arcade style racers already here but Race Driver 2006 is one of the first attempts at a serious racing simulator on the PSP. As you might expect from a dated game (this is a port of TOCA Race Driver2), the graphics are

Gears of War Epic Games/Microsoft Game Studios Reviewed On: Xbox 360 Street: 11.06 Gears of War was the action game of 2006 and one of the most popular games to be released on the Xbox 360 to date. Not only does the game look great and have some hair-raising action but it steps beyond the

All the King’s Men Steve Zaillian Columbia Pictures Street: 12.06.2006 Based on Robert Warren’s book which is based upon the life of Louisiana politician Huey Long All the King’s Men is a well executed but sometimes overdone vehicle for Sean Penn to flex his southern diction as Willie Stark. The film follows Stark from a

1966 World Tour Joel Gilbert Highway 61 Entertainment Street: 06.06.2006   From the look of the cover you might think this movie is about Bob Dylan’s 1966 world tour. You might think that you’re going to see and hear some of the tour or even some of Bob Dylan. You might expect an interesting glimpse

Killzone: Liberation Guerrilla/SCEA Reviewed On: PSP Street: 11-06 It’s hard to say what exactly it is that makes Killzone so much fun to play. The graphics are just above average, the game play can be frustrating and the camera angles actually make some parts of the game much harder than they should be. But nevertheless
