There was a trailer at E3 that had me scrambling for the sickbag. A trailer so sick and subversive that it made my stomach churn a little bit. Nope, not Doom; I’m talking about the campaign reveal of Halo 5: Guardians. Coming in to E3, there were already concerns amongst …

With some trepidation, I approach Anniversary the second time around. There’s a double dose of nostalgia lying in wait here, first for the console-defining original Tomb Raider and second for Crystal Dynamics’ outstanding remake, which, through my rose-tinted bifocals (available at selected opticians), is the series’ finest hour. Not to …

You don’t need to be wired into the Skynet mainframe to know that Terminator fever is upon us again. Not only is Arnold Schwarzenegger returning to the iconic role of the T-800 in Terminator Genisys – out 2 July – but James Cameron’s classic original Terminator is back on the …

The main sticking …

The world of CG-animated ‘90s kids show Reboot is coming back (opens in new tab) online with 26 new episodes and a new cast of characters. When I heard the news, I was ecstatic. So much so that I decided to watch an episode ASAP, preferably wearing my Sonic pajamas …

Love is a complex force, capable of binding opposed minds together, but also tearing lives apart. Evidently, Intelligent Systems realises that ‘It’s complicated’ is more than a trite Facebook status, because its newest Fire Emblem game (subtitled If in Japan) is as much about warring hearts as clashing blades.

‘Well excuuuuse me, Princess!’ ‘Excuses, excuses’ – where in the world would we be without them? Probably turning up to all of those social functions we’d drunkenly agreed to, or heaven forbid, actually out using our gym memberships. Eurgh Well, I for one don’t want to live in a world …
