The 3rd Birthday Gamescom 2010 Hands-On Preview

Naturally the third game in the Parasite Eve series, The 3rd Birthday is an upcoming action role-playing game from Square Enix for the PSP . With a strong development team and some unusual concepts, this feisty PSP title is an interesting proposition.

There is only one new entry to speak of in the game sale charts this week but that game is also the new number one. The charts are as following:

Crysis 2 Gamescom 2010 Hands-On Multiplayer Preview

Our preview of a Crysis 2 single player mission at E3 had the GameOn team suitably impressed. The series' obscenely good visuals were somehow improved upon and the campaign gameplay looked impressive enough to match. However, who really remembers the original Crysis' multiplayer?

Dead Rising 2: Case Zero Released

Dead Rising 2: Case Zero has now been released upon the Xbox Live Arcade for a measily sum of 400 MS Points.

Paradox Interactive Gamescom Lineup

Paradox Interactive has a number of new titles due to be released over the course of the next 18 months. We find ourselves overwhelmed by games by one of the best strategic publishers going. We have: Magicka, a fantasy RPG revolving around wizards and spells; Sword of the Stars II, the sequel to the tactical science-fiction title Sword of the Stars and finally Crusader Kings II, a sequel recently announced set between the 11th Century and the 15th Century.

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days Xbox 360 Review

Underdeveloped. Unresponsive. Unsatisfying. No, I'm not talking about my sex life, these were all words I used when reviewing the original Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. Thankfully, they'll all come in handy when describing the recently released sequel. Buckle up everyone: it's going to be a rough ride...

Yoostar 2 Gamescom 2010 Hands-On Preview

We took some time out from the hustle and bustle of Gamescom to try out Yoostar 2, a ‘movie karaoke' game that lets anyone realistically star in their favourite films with minimal hassle. So sit back, grab some popcorn and read a little about a premise that could provide the foundation for a blockbuster ‘social video-game'.

Alan Wake: The Signal DLC Xbox 360 Review

Alan Wake, Remedy Entertainment's long-awaited horror title managed to impress with its intriguing story and unusual light-based combat. However, some repetitive enemy types and a few monotonous battles took some of the shine off an otherwise highly polished title. The Signal is the first piece of downloadable content to be released, so does it address these criticisms?

Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga Gamescom 2010 Preview

Developed by Larian Studios, Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga will contain a revamped version of the original game, Divinity II: Ego Draconis, and a new add-on called Flames of Vengeance. At Gamescom we spent some time getting to know what makes Divinity II special in an age of excess action RPG titles.

WTFBBQ - Do you like PRETZ?

In this weeks weekly WTFBBQ we bring you three adverts (in one) for PRETZ
There really isnt any more we can say on this one. 

Red Dead Redemption Xbox 360 Review

Rockstar Games is undoubtedly one of the most widely recognisable developers with a reputation for controversial sandbox titles. Despite the media storm that usually follows every release, their games never fail to perform incredibly well, both critically and commercially. Their latest release, Red Dead Redemption has been described as "Grand Theft Western", but is this necessarily true?

Instant Jam Gamescom 2010 Hands-On Preview

One game which was a surprise package at Gamescom was Instant Jam. Not of the food variety but a free-to-play music rhythm game that seems to look and feel like Guitar Hero. However, underneath the notes and guitars is an interesting new concept that could rock the gaming world.

FIFA Manager 11 Gamescom 2010 Preview

The task of creating the best all-round football management game is not an easy undertaking as we found out with FIFA Manager last time around. We spent some time with Bright Future at Gamescom to find out if the progression over the last year means that the outlook of FIFA Manager 11 is indeed bright.
