Newest Review: ... have been released online about the hardware of the 720 and actually got so out of hand, S.W.A.T raided one guy's house and ... more

 ... arrested him! That's what you get for signing away your freedom of speech in an agreement to preview hardware. Exactly the problem with the power behind big American corporations... The PS4 will supposedly feature similar tech to the 720, and rightly so because games need to be made to fit on both platforms. The best processing power will benefit the most but I honestly think if the leaked documents are true, we could be in for a big surprise with regards to speed and basic GPU power. It is rumoured that Kinect V2 w...more

Does anyone really care which console is the most successful? Only the games companies and developers themselves will really care. As long as they all have a chance and offer us some great games, then I'm happy. I own a Playstation. It has hundreds of games, but are most of them any good? Well I'd say that around 50 of them are worth buying, but there are far too many games on the console that most games will not succeed. I can tell you that the Playstation has sold 70million units worldwide in 5 years. This isn't a figure to laugh and snigger at. It is an amazing achievement, it's clear that Sony has dominated the ...  Read the complete review

I have to inform everyone that my role as a part time gamer is to play games. I don't really care what advertising goes into the game - or who makes the game - I don't really care which format it's on - but as long as the game is good - i.e. There is enough reliable evidence to suggest the game is worth purchasing then I will, providing my financial status is in good steed, purchase the game. At present there are no Playstation2s readily available - and I feel that Sony has betrayed all their devotees and gone and betrayed the whole games industry - OK so the PS2 has DVD - but in Japan it is basically seen as a DVD player ONLY - the games ...  Read the complete review

PS4 Announcement: Xbox 720 to soon follow? (471 words)

so with the recent announcement of the Playstation 4, we have yet to wait for the Xbox 720 announcement. It is expected to be announced some time in April but as of yet, they're keeping a lid on everything. The big issue with the new consoles, for me at least, is their ability to watermark and therefore block any used games. As a score junkie i find this hard news to swallow. That means the end of the fun score hunting games and back to the usual games before score, where you played without achievements. (I know, hard to imagine right?!) So far several leaks have been released online about the hardware of the 720 and actually got so out of hand, S.W.A.T raided ...  Read the complete review

What is the best next generation console to get? Playstation 2, X-box or the game cube. There is no telling how good they are until they all come out. The playstation 2 will do vary well as people liked the playstation 1 so much. The playstation 2 will have a DVD player, but so will the X-box. Microsoft has found many company’s to support the X-box, but people may not like the idea of Microsoft making a console. Metal gear solid 2 will be coming to the Playstation 2, but it’s coming out to the X-box except with the name Metal gear X. There have been rumours of being able to play PC games on the X-Box but this is not true, but it would have been ...  Read the complete review
