First Impressions Wanted: Weapons Of Fate on Playstation 3
After initially being wowed by the stylish opening menu screen of Wanted: Weapons Of Fate, we were a little let down by the subpar graphics and the monotony of the gameplay
You can curve your bullets, hide behind cover and sneak up on enemies. And well, that's about all we got to experience really. Hopefully the game picks up a bit in the full...

First Impressions Resistance Retribution on Playstation Portable
We're big fans of the Resistance series
We thoroughly enjoyed the slow-paced gameplay of Fall Of Man and loved the scale of Resistance 2. Hearing that the series was making it's way to the PSP we were mildly excited but somewhat sceptical. How the hell can they port a game like Resistance to the PSP? It's been done with mixed response. Resistance...
First Impressions Killzone 2 Demo
We've played through the Killzone 2 demo seven times in the last couple of hours and in that time we've gone through a journey from unruly scepticism to raw admiration
If you've only played the demo once and have come away from those short few minutes of gameplay with a sour taste we urge you to replay a few times. This game takes time to...
First Impressions Resident Evil 5 on Playstation 3
Controls seem to be the staple mark of the Resident Evil experience
Ever since the Resident Evil 5 demo hit the XBOX Live last week hordes of Gears Of War-elitists got to put their trigger fingers to the test in the latest iteration of the popular survival horror franchise. Their response? "Sucks". Let's clarify that this was the general...

First Impressions F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin on Playstation 3
We're told that the original F
E.A.R.</a> was a good game. Told because we didn't actually play it. Apparently the series is a mix of sci-fi, horror and bullet-time. Given this list of cliches we were a bit sceptical dropping into Project Origin but, fear not, our worries have been temporarily quashed. F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin feels...

There's no denying the comparisons between Mirror's Edge and 1984
It's just a futuristic version. Let's face it - Orwell's vision didn't quite come true but if we look further into the future we can see the same ideals just in a different world. Orwell's vision is carried forward in Mirror's Edge where the government confines and censors information...

First Impressions Mega Man 9 On Playstation 3 Initial Thoughts & Opinion
Too damn hard
I do like these "spin off" T-shirts though. Guess where it only ships to?
First Impressions SOCOM: Confrontation BETA on Playstation 3 Thoughts & Opinion
I got into the SOCOM: Confrontation BETA today and I keep reminding myself that I have to take the game exactly for what it is, a beta
It's kinda hard though when the game in question is such a shambles that this particular blogger found it nigh-on impossible to even get in a game. We're talking 2 hours hopping screens and menus gave a return of one...

First Impressions echoChrome on Playstation 3 Initial Thoughts
If you overlook the horribly "modern" spelling of echoChrome-I'm-too-cool-to-use-capital-letters-at-the-start-of-my-games-name then what you're actually going to find for £6
99 available in the UK/EU Playstation Store now is a very sophisticated, innovative and difficult game. Similar to fl0w in many ways, both downloads not only share bad spelling...
