Looking Back... On Worms
The Worms franchise is the very definition of “an oldie but a goodie”. With the first game released in 1995, it has had a healthy eighteen-year lifespan and only gets better as the titles go on. 'But sir,' I hear you ask. 'what makes Worms so different from any other turn based strategy game out...

22/04/2013 Rumours are that Microsoft will unveil their new console (which fans have nicknamed the Xbox 720 and Xbox Infinity) in a few months. I will be pre-ordering the new Xbox as soon as its unveiled, but I can't help but feel that there a few problems with the current Xbox that...
Looking Back on Tenchu
01/02/2013
It seems like eons since there has been a Tenchu game. It has been 5 years since the release of the decidedly average Tenchu: Shadow Assassins on the Nintendo Wii and Sony PSP, and 7 years since Tenchu Z and Tenchu: Dark Secret were released on Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS respectively. It...
