BioShock Infinite PC Game Reviews

BioShock Infinite

While it might not have a multi-player mode and doesn’t stray as far from the familiar Bioshock experience as you might think, Infinite is an outstanding game with a lot to offer. With intense combat, an eye opening storyline and unwillingness to back away from sensitive topics, Infinite is a game that should not be missed.

Gameplay: Familiar yet fresh, Infinite is a worthy successor to the Bioshock franchise.

Graphics: Looks great even on moderate hardware.

Sound: Excellent voice acting and a great musical score

Bioshock 2 PC Game Reviews

Bioshock 2

A great sequel that makes a lot of improvements over the original but at times feels too much like an expansion pack rather than a full fledged title. It is still a blast to play and has some great insights into the world of Rapture but don’t expect the plot to be as mind blowing as the first. Things really pick up towards the end so stick with it.

Gameplay: All the tweaks and improvements you could ask for.

Graphics: Very nice but its clear to see that the PC version is being held back by the games console roots.

Sound: Atmospheric and moody

Verdun Players Can Now Take Part In A Christmas Truce News

Verdun Players Can Now Take Part In A Christmas Truce

Throwing snowballs at other players or playing football matches are not things that are associated with realistic First World War games, but that is exactly what is happening in Verdun. The developers of this first person shooter have added a brand new dedicated winter map to the game where players can engage in these activities and more. Even more amazing is the fact that it is historically accurate as French, German and British troops actually held a truce during Christmas!

Aliens vs. Predator™ PC Game Reviews

Aliens vs. Predator™

An atmospheric human campaign, frantic wall and ceiling crawling Alien campaign and stealthy Predator campaign all combine for an entertaining package. I would have loved to see more variety in the locations but the game was fun to play despite its flaws. Definitely worth it if you spot it at a bargain price.

Gameplay: Standard FPS fare as the marine but the Alien and Predator campaigns offer something new.

Graphics: Nice graphics and great animations.

Sound: Lance Henrikson does a great job but the rest of the voice overs are so so

Duke Nukem Forever: The Doctor Who Cloned Me PC Game Reviews

Duke Nukem Forever: The Doctor Who Cloned Me

While The Doctor Who Cloned me is a entertaining experience it is not going to change the minds of those who have turned their back on the main game. With a four to five hour campaign feature plenty of shooting and new locations it is worth the price but don’t expect any visual improvements or drastic changes.

Gameplay: More focused than the main game but still some annoyances.

Graphics: No real improvements over the main campaign.

Sound: Some more quips from Duke but the music is less memorable

Eledees Console Reviews

Eledees

The storyline is rather childish but the gameplay is quite addictive in this non-violent shooter. Raising havoc is a lot of fun and chasing down all the little critters can be tricky but overall this game shouldn’t pose too much of a challenge. The controls work rather well bar a few instances and it is a good showcase for the Wii hardware.

Gameplay: Perfectly suited to the Wii controls.

Graphics: Not exactly cutting edge but does the job.

Sound: Good but not great

Deadfall Adventures PC Game Reviews

Deadfall Adventures

Deadfall Adventures is not without its flaws, but overall it is a solid and enjoyable game with some nice locations and tricky puzzles. There is nothing here that hasn’t already been done before, but it blends all the elements together for an action packed experience that isn’t afraid to tax your grey matter either. Hopefully this isn’t the last time we join the adventures of James Lee Quatermain.

Gameplay: A nice mixture of action and puzzle solving.

Graphics: Exotic locations and great attention to detail.

Sound: The voice acting could have been better, but the music and sound effects are solid

Spirits of Xanadu PC Game Reviews

Spirits of Xanadu

Desolate spaceships out in the depths of space always make for good game settings, and Spirits of Xanadu is no exception. The game draws its inspiration from titles such as System Shock 2 but obviously cannot compete in terms of size and depth. It is still an impressive offering from a very small team, though, and makes for an engaging experience. The voice acting, in particular, is a highlight, but the interactive environments are also a great touch. If you enjoy exploration-based games and creepy locations, don’t pass up on Spirits of Xanadu.

Gameplay: The focus is more on exploration than puzzle solving, but it is still very enjoyable.

Graphics: The visuals are not cutting-edge but still impressive enough for a small indie title.

Sound: The audio is decent, but the voice acting is very good

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl PC Game Reviews

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

It’s easy to hate Stalker for all the things that it does wrong but if you take the time and effort to really get into the game instead of judging it by the standards of other First Person Shooters you will find a deeply engrossing and gripping experience that will keep you coming back for more.

Gameplay: Tough as nails and very unforgiving but stick with it and you will be hooked.

Graphics: Might not be cutting edge but still looks very good.

Sound: Barring some weird voice glitches its all very good
