This Week’s Game Pass Adventures
I’d intended for this article to be published earlier this week, but it became clear when I was some way through my piece that I’d be better off repurposing it […]
Forza Horizon 4 – Lego Speed Champions DLC
Out Now – Version Played: Xbox One X (£15.99) I need to start this review with a few important details – firstly, I don’t drive in real life. There’s quite […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 12: Jambo! Safari
Version Played: Wii Current CEX Price: £2 The late 90s/early 00s was a time when arcades still felt like they had new experiences to offer that you couldn’t replicate at home, or at least not to the same effect. Sega was releasing some absolutely wonderful games; though some received home conversions – and ports like Crazy Taxi for Dreamcast went […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 11: Driver: San Francisco
Version Played: Xbox 360Current CEX Price: £4 I recently tried the Wii version of Driver: Parallel Lines and found it to be an excellent substitute for GTA, on a console bereft of any versions of Rockstar’s classic open-world series. It was good to see that the Driver series had finally found its feet, after going from full on driving into […]
A Trip to the Arcade: Swanage
As my previous arcade article went down so well, I thought I’d follow it up with another – especially as I ventured further out than Bournemouth at the weekend, ending […]
A Trip to the Arcade: Bournemouth
This weekend, I made an effort to go and see an old friend. An old friend who, unfortunately, is a shadow of their former self. The arcade. I went to […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 9: Driver: Parallel Lines
Version Played: Wii Current CEX Price: £1 I have a confession to make that may make me very unpopular indeed – I never really enjoyed the first three Driver games. […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 6: Transformers – Dark of the Moon: Stealth Force Edition
Version Played: Wii Current CEX Price: £1.50 I’m a huge Transformers fan. Always have been; I religiously watched the original cartoon on The Wide Awake Club and Wacaday back in […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 5: Spongebob Squarepants: Creature from the Krusty Krab
Version Played: Wii Current CEX Price: £2.50 I was – technically – way too old for Spongebob when it first came out; however, I must admit that even the title […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin – 1: The Wheelman
Format played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £1 I’m not going to lie – despite reaching my 100 consecutive daily article goal yesterday, it’s been a bit weird to consider […]
Transformers Prime: The Game – Wii U
I really wanted to like Transformers Prime: The Game. I’m a big fan of the CG-animated series that spawned it; though essentially aimed at kids, it was a surprisingly dark […]
Emergency Mayhem – Wii
My quest to uncover hidden gems – as cheaply as possible – in the Wii’s enormous library continues. Not to be confused with Emergency Heroes, Emergency Mayhem is a much more slapstick-style romp through an insanely dangerous and malfunctioning city, overrun with disasters, crime…and monkeys. Where Emergency Heroes took itself quite seriously, Emergency Mayhem definitely does not. At first glance, […]
Emergency Heroes – Wii
In my quest for super cheap, hidden gems for the Wii, I came across Emergency Heroes, which I’d never heard of before. For the princely sum of £1, why not give it a go? Early signs are promising. There’s some great anime-inspired character, vehicle and city design; the visuals are bold, bright and colourful too. The city and vehicles have […]
