Well, that was a surprise, wasn’t it? Last night, during The Game Awards 2019, Microsoft unveiled their next gen Xbox (previously codenamed Project Scarlett) – and the name has also […]

I’ve had a quiet week in gaming terms. With an awful lot on my plate in other areas, it was inevitable that something was going to suffer – and, unfortunately, […]
Christmas is coming and December’s ‘freebies’ for Gold subscribers are on their way too. The free-games-with-subs is always very subjective, no matter what’s on offer; if subscribers already own one […]
Version Played: Xbox 360Current CEX Price: £2.50 I never got around to playing the original Stuntman on PS2, though I’d always been intrigued by its premise. So I was extremely […]
Version Played: Xbox 360Current CEX Price: £2 2011’s The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn was a motion-captured animated film with some seriously heavyweight cinematic personnel behind the […]
Well, that was a weird week. Travelling to a very intimidating meeting for my day job and having a day out of work to attend a funeral for a beloved family member added to my general lack of energy this week – and yet…I still, somehow, managed to get an article published every day. Let’s see what I covered this […]
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £1 The first Mercenaries game was released in 2005 on the Playstation 2 and Xbox; it was a ton of chaotic fun, with what was – at the time – a massive sandbox environment and lots of ways to cause destruction on a big scale, limited only by the technology available.

Hello reader! How are you doing? I hope you’re well. I know what you’re thinking – has it really been another week? Yes. Yes it has. Here we are heading towards Halloween and even I – legendary scaredy cat that I am – seem to have been looking at (and writing about!) more scary stuff than I can usually handle, […]
Not being able to afford an Xbox when it was first released – being the owner of a Dreamcast, PS2 and GameCube at the time Microsoft’s console came out in […]
Version Played: Xbox 360Current CEX Price: £2 Gears of War really did influence an awful lot of games in the last generation – and it continues to do so to this day. EA clearly wanted in on the third person, bro-tastic action themselves – and Army of Two definitely feels like one of those games that wouldn’t have existed if […]
Though I’m not a fan of Gears of War, I do acknowledge the positive impact it had on gaming, with third person shooters becoming far more prevalent in number as […]
I finished Gears of War again at the weekend (yep, Game Pass strikes again!). I hadn’t played it since the original release and, this time, I’d played the Ultimate Edition which adds in further stages, which previously only appeared in the PC version of the game. Not only that, but the whole game has been given a lick of paint […]
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £1.50 Crackdown was a hugely popular game in its day; concerned about its reception when revealed, Microsoft took the unusual step of including […]
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: 50p Very early on in Mindjack, there’s a nicely choreographed fight in a cutscene, ending with what feels like a pretty unnecessary neck […]
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £3 I can’t believe I’m on my 20th Bargain Bin article already; I started out covering Wii games before getting hold of some […]
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £2 I’ve always had quite a substantial interest in Greek mythology, which was sparked – somewhat narcissistically – by the realisation that my […]
