KickBeat Pirouettes onto PS Vita

Music combat

While martial arts and music don’t appear to have much in common, Zen Studios has found a way to connect the two disparate activities. Inspired by the heavily rhythmic choreography of old-school kung-fu movies, the developer has concocted KickBeat, a brand new music title developed exclusively for Vita. The game introduces familiar...

LEGO Batman 2 Trailer Introduces Open World

Blocky

Yes, yes, we know: another LEGO game. But LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes is no average block buster, as it introduces an open world setting for the very first time. You’ll be able to scale the streets of Gotham City, solving crime as your favourite DC characters. It looks pretty neat, doesn’t it? We're still not sure about the voice...

Breaking barriers

DUST 514 is probably the most ambitious game announced for PlayStation 3 right now.

Dungeon Twister Swivels onto PS3

Twist and shout

We have to admit we’re a little bit disappointed with this launch trailer for Dungeon Twister. Upon learning that the title was based on a “popular board game”, we wrongly assumed that it would be about contortionists adopting unusual body positions in a fantasy setting. But no, it's nothing like that at all. In the game, two...

Moonraker

New Medal of Honor Warfighter Trailer Explodes Online

Firefight

EA’s released the brand new Medal of Honor Warfighter trailer which debuted during last night’s dramatic Champions League final.

Mad Riders Speeds onto PSN on 30th May

Price of a pizza

The 15 people that actually played Techland’s off-road racer Nail’d will tell you that, terrible name aside, it was pretty good fun. We were one of those 15 people, and we agree. The big problem with Nail’d was its delivery method and price. For a few pennies on the PlayStation Store it would have been a roaring success, but...

Fearsome Creatures Conjured in Final Sorcery Diary

Medievil

Outstanding controls and engaging audio are all well and good, but what is the point of them without creatures to kill?

First EX Troopers Trailer Looks... Awesome

Seriously

You could be forgiven for reading yesterday’s EX Troopers announcement with a cynical mindset. The Lost Planet franchise — upon which the spin-off is based — has never really lived up to its potential, and the details provided as part of the Famitsu report didn’t sound particularly engaging. But it turns out we just needed actual...
