The original Star Wars Holiday Special was an unmitigated disaster. Quickly produced for TV in 1978 – just a year after the first movie was released – it was a […]
Tapping into the same addictive character spotting, scene scanning fun that you get from the Where’s Wally (or Waldo, if you’re across the Atlantic) books, Hidden Through Time is a […]
The original Battletoads – which was released on Nintendo’s 8-bit console the NES back in 1991 – is infamously challenging, with a number of levels that are so tough that they can feel incredibly unfair at times – it’s a game that’s often fondly remembered until you try it again, at which point you realise how frustratingly difficult it is […]

I wasn’t a Daft Punk fan at first. Their first album – Homework – just felt way too repetitive; it sounded like a collection of songs built to dance to […]
Based on a cartoon that was broadcast between 2008-2011, Batman: The Brave and the Bold (which released in 2010) takes the show’s concept of featuring a different super hero team up in each episode and turns it into a fun, straightforward platformer with a few neat touches.
