Oh look, a fantasy RTS game…why am I not excited. Well, since Red Alert I haven’t played a single RTS game, apart from the glorious Shogun, that has done anything remarkably different to Westwood’s classic to make me want to play it. Battle Realms is the name of the game, an oriental flavoured RTS revolving [...]

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
The Elder Scrolls series of games (Arena; Daggerfall) has long been a favorite in the cult of the computer role player. Developer Bethesda’s design philosophy with their role playing games is to allow a completely open-ended system where a player can do what they want. Morrowind, the third in the series, not only provides that [...]
Solider Of Fortune 2 : Double Helix
Now I don’t live in a trailer park, neither am I a ‘god-darn’ hillbilly dressed in a lumberjack shirt and body warmer, most of all I am not American and therefore, overall, I know nothing about guns. But, Soldier of Fortune is THE game for all those of you who like to ‘lock n load’, [...]
Underlight
The MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role playing game) genre is something of a misnomer. Visit an MMORPG board and you’re bound to find a post here or there that mourns the lack of actual role playing involved. Though several upcoming MMORPGs hope for good role playing to bloom, the simple economics add up to a [...]
Gothic PC Review
I’m quite happy for you to quote me on saying that Baldurs Gate 2 is perhaps the finest game ever made and deserves praise outside the games industry for its sheer depth of interaction, I also remembering giving Secret of Mana a small round of applause when I finished it all those years ago. This [...]
Flight Simulator 2002 Review
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 is the new edition of Microsoft’s highly realistic, graphically advanced flight simulator, the best-selling PC flight simulation game ever – not that there has been a heck of a lot of competition. Flight Simulator 2002 represented a leap for the FS series, because it includes real-time, interactive Air Traffic Control (ATC), [...]
Red Faction PC Review
Half Life must be the bane of FPS game designers, a constant reminder of what can be achieved and what is required of their game to get it noticed. Over three years after its release, people are still playing Half Life, and we haven’t seen a single player FPS game since that can touch it. [...]
Baldur’s Gate II: Throne of Bhaal PC Review
The question of whether it is better to burn out or fade away may have been on the minds of the Bioware/Black Isle developers as they set about creating what was to be the concluding chapter of the monumental Baldur’s Gate (BG) series of CRPGs. As evident with Throne of Bhaal (ToB) – a Baldur’s [...]
Sacrifice PC Review
Before reviewing, I like to have a clear picture of a game in my mind. I had trouble with Sacrifice because of it’s subtle blending of genres. In fact, I had to resort to using Microsoft’s Game ClassifierÔ to pigeonhole it. After a few crashes, the program reluctantly churned out that Sacrifice is a “goreladen [...]
Max Payne Review
Oh my how long have we been waiting for this one! I don’t know how many times I’ve said, “WOW!” today, but I think I have just witnessed an evolution in the shooter genre.The game starts with a cool tutorial where you can get to grips with the new “Bullet Time” feature. Bullet Time is [...]
