Just in case you haven’t been following us closely enough to have read our reviews of the first two episodes (for shame!), a Blue Toad episode runs thus: Twelve Professor Layton – style puzzles are scattered throughout a lighthearted detective mystery plotline, told entirely through cartoonish cut scenes (you also need to identify ‘whodunnit’ at the end). You can play through on your own or with up to three other people, in which case you’ll be swapping a single controller around old skool stylee.

Bioshock 2 does what we all wanted from the original and fixes you inside the lumbering, stompy boots of the Big Daddy. You have the tools, the sounds and the responsibilities that made the gentle, yet fearsomely deadly giants great.

The plot, you see, revolves around a serial killer who murders young boys. The whole thing is played almost constantly po – faced (understandably) but we shan’t delve much further into the plot here. Story is everything in Heavy Rain because, love it or hate it, everyone can surely agree that this is more story than game.

Even if you haven’t seen any, chances are you’ve at least heard of one of the Aliens or Predator movies or maybe even the ones where they crossed paths. They’ve also been involved in a number of games too and Rebellion, who already have a few under their belt, have taken another stab at perfecting the mix of xenomorphic creatures, hyper advanced hunters and squishy moving targets.

So he ventures into Hell, where he is forced to face the true extent of his sins in order to absolve Beatrice – and, perhaps, himself.
Naturally, this involves repeatedly hitting hundreds of ugly beasties with something long and pointy.

MAG: review
Zipper Interactive made bold claims when they announced MAG. The thought of a 256 player online FPS had many salivating at the prospect of a full-on online war game, which went beyond the snack sized Team Deathmatch modes offered in other shooters. So how does MAG stand up to the peerless Call of Duty and Battlefield franchises?
Army of Two The 40th Day: review
The first Army of Two game set out with ambitious goals to make cooperative play the key feature at its core. In fact, cooperative gameplay in recent years has fast become as popular as verses modes. With the proliferation of cooperative play, Army of Two: The 40th Day has to try hard to stand out.
