Prototype 2 Review
This generation of consoles, and gaming in general, has recently been inundated with sequels. Not that there is anything intrinsically wrong with that, of course. The original Prototype was one of these rarely seen new intellectual properties that have been released this generation. An open-world action game with an emphasis on the superhuman powers, Prototype [...]
Journey Review
Expectations are self-imposed barriers to experiences. When you carve out a belief of what something should be like, anything from a relationship to a video game, you put on a set of blinkers that can end up leaving you missing out on the full picture.

Batman: Arkham City Review
Batman: Arkham City is one of my most anticipated games of the year, so I was hugely pleased to get hold of a pre-release copy for review. This review is on the Xbox360, although I don’t anticipate it will be much different on the PS3. So, without further ado, here’s the 1000Games Batman Arkham City [...]
