The PSVita, possibly one of the most anticipated console releases in the history of gaming thus far is nearly upon the west. Launching firmly in the middle of next week (Wednesday 22nd), it will be intriguing to see how the technological behemoth will be received via the consuming market. Despite being visibly apparent that its [...]

Snake? Snakeeee? Snakeeeeeee!!! 2 classics from the last generation of consoles and 1 classic from the realm of portable bliss. 3 games for the price of 1 is always a sweet deal and made even [...]

Who says there is not room for traditional consoles in the handheld spectrum? You only have to look as far as the demand that consumers have for Nintendo, Pokemon and more oddly Monster Hunter. With the 3DS approaching a year in production, it is thrown into competition with the PSVita in terms of handheld gaming [...]

Lets get this out the way first. Under no circumstance is piracy forgiveable. The fact that people profit or manipulate someone else’s product, creative work etc for what is essentially theft is wrong. In this modern age where the internet is host to various manipulations and various forms of piracy theft, it seems right to regulate [...]

Starting of with games (which is my forte so why not), it has been an incredible year-for some. [...]

The video game awards, an annual pastime each year to celebrate the year’s best gaming entertainment. A growing critique of the show though is that the awards largely come second to the gaming press as well as chosen reveals for future releases. So didn’t realise it was on or just missed it? Have no fear [...]

As with each passing year, gaming brings with it a catalogue of stellar and quality titles. There is no doubting that 2012 will follow in 2011’s footsteps as a prolific year but what titles are worth buying? What titles will be the commercial and critical winners among the masses? With the year upon us lets [...]
