By Gavin Mannion
November 2, 2007 - 18 years ago

So I just finished playing Stranglehold this week and I thought I would share some thoughts on it since it is about to be released on PS3 as well. I was not very interested in getting this game but as fate would have it someone wanted to swap it for a book I had so I was lucky enough to …

November 1, 2007 - 18 years ago

So when Virtua Fighter 5 was first announced we were told that the reason it was a PlayStation 3 exclusive is because the 360 couldn’t handle it… Well it is no longer an exclusive and the first reviews are coming in… After all that ?only PS3 can do Virtua Fighter 5? talk, we?re proud to say the 360 version is …

F1 coming to the 360?

By Gavin Mannion
November 1, 2007 - 18 years ago

There is one question that I get asked often by my petrol head friends and that is “Why isn’t there a F1 game on the 360?” Well the reason was that Sony has had the exclusive licence since 2003, however there have been rumblings that Sony are going to lose this licence and we could well expect a F1 game …

Midway developer getting confused

By Gavin Mannion
November 1, 2007 - 18 years ago

Mike Bilder from Midway has been making some strange claims in an interview. He is basically saying that all games should be made for the PS3 first and then ported down to the Xbox 360 and PC… Making the PS3 the lead platform.. So why is this a strange claim? Well because Midway are the guys who cannot seem to develop anything …

Yahtzee goes back to his roots

November 1, 2007 - 18 years ago

While I am a huge fan of Yahtzee and his Zero Punctuation reviews I have to admit his most recent attempts have lacked that pure humour from before… Well I am glad to say he is back and is as good as ever, I think the key is that his evil bosses (Escapist Magazine) have recently been giving him good …

November 1, 2007 - 18 years ago

So after all that nonsense earlier in the week about the PS3 version of COD 4 being delayed it seems to have been a storm in a teacup… I received information from Megarom (the local distributor) that the PS3 version of COD4 has in fact arrived on time and there is no reason why you couldn’t collect your pre-ordered copy …

Yet another game delayed for South Africa. Hellgate: London is happily being released all over the world except for in South Africa. So why the delay?
