TMNT - Finished
I knew the game wasn't going to be great. But I really wanted a solid platform game (Prince Of Persia-esque) which focused more on the single player than the multiplayer (rare for the...
Starfox is a franchise that's been a big part of my life ever since the SNES version was released. I went to extraordinary lengths back in 1992 to get myself an import copy (back in the days...
Tearing myself away from my points whoring I finally got around to putting Fable in there. I went in thinking it was going to be full of let downs from what I've read of the criticism (mostly...
So the selling point of the new Commodore PC's is that they have a 'tricked out' case. Pardon my ignorance, but since when has putting a screen print on a basic £14.99 shell been...
Boring story, pretty shallow repetitive gameplay. The mech's were quite fun except that the majority of weapons are useless to you except for the chain gun and the grenade launcher. Started...
Only took around 9-10 hours in total. Not a very good game at all really, some rather severe instances of slow-down too which isn't good to see in a 360 game. I could go back and replay it to get...
It's true in some regards that it is Second-Life from a offline based branded company who are targetting non tech-savvy console users who don't regulary use PC's. Although I ask the question how...
So after 42 hours playing time (according to the ingame clock), I finally completed Enchanted Arms Even though the level progression is a bit whack in places and the golem(monster) collecting...
When the Wii was announced I was of the opinion that I totally wasn't going to waste my money on it after the fiasco that was the Gamecube & the N64. Two consoles of which I maybe bought 2 games...
This week my Email concerning Starfox on the Wii got read out by Jeff on the Hotspot. Needless to say I'm very happy about that!. Despite the fact that he accentuated where I live as my surname....
Greg going?. Shocking. Despite only hanging around this website myself for 3 years or so under this alias and a previous one (Ffelfurt). It's not hard to notice what a great contribution of...
Altered Beast - £8. Nintendo, are you having a bloody laugh?. I think SEGA were charging that much for it back in 1994!. I hope to god that no-one is actually paying these ridiculously...
Just for the record, it's the 19th of December. Parents are frantically rushing around trying to find somewhere which stocks a Wii. As of today I now own one. It makes a nice decoration next...
So according to my GS collection I now own over 100 games. Not exactly a hardcore figure in the grand scheme of things but still quite alot in the eyes of a casual gamer i'd have thought!. I'd...
Okay this was an excercise in points whoring but in my defense just about anyone serious about points has played this game too!. I rented it from Choices (no way am I laying down £39.99). I...
Completed Canis Ca.., Bully.. today. Despite it being stupidly easy it was still quite alot of fun. A compelling story, interesting characters and a fair amount of variety. For me it...
I wish there was a way to turn off everything that non subscribers post. Or better still have seperate boards for the subscribers and the advertisement filled mess for the other people. This would...
I finally finished MGS3 with about 28 hours game time. Pretty much unlocked everything minus a few special suits because I couldn't be bothered using the Tranq. gun every time. The Boss was...
I just completed the boss battle against 'The Fury' after about 20 incredibly frustrating goes. In the walkthrough it described it like it's a piece of piss, but heck no. It'd would have been...
I finally finished RE4 last night with a total of 26 hours gametime. The Krauser fight I found was especially difficult. I'm sure that battle wasn't designed to be fought with about 4 magnum...
