Tags: 360 Shooting Perpetual Gamer Reviews

Section 8 (like it's filmic namesake District 9) is a shooter that walks its own path. Although this has resulted in a slightly muted single player, it is more than made up for this by a raft of fresh ideas for mutliplayer gaming. This game with its heart on its sleeve creates so many new ways to loose yourself in perpetual multiplayer bliss.

Batman: Arkham Asylum PS3
Tags: PS3 Fighting Perpetual Gamer Reviews

The geek in me gets to finally revel in the wonder and awe that is Batman: Arkham Asylum on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, I found myself thrilled to finally be able to control my comic hero in quite simply the best game I've played in a long time.

Prince of Persia 360
Tags: 360 Platforming Perpetual Gamer Reviews

Rebooting a franchise can be a tricky task but Prince of Persia does an excellent job in re-launching the series from the roots. I found the game challenging the conventional fairy tale in its delivery, plot, and more definitely in its ending. Borrowing elements from the famous mythological book, a 1001 Arabian Nights, Prince of Persia made me feel as if I was living in that mystical era. I felt the message of the game was all about, appropriately, letting go of the past, and showing me that we can once again believe in magical lands where good and evil are as simple as black and white.

With Tiger Wood 09 firmly in my favourites spot next to my Wii, I look towards the potential for greatness of Tiger Wood 10.

Tiger Woods 09 All Play Wii
Tags: Wii Sporting Perpetual Gamer Reviews

This true swinging golf is the closest I've ever come to playing without ever striking a real ball. With impressively engrossing environments Tiger Woods 09 ticks all but the most important of my boxes - online play is an empty experience where the other golfers seem no more real than their invisible offline computer counterparts. This world needs populating - I feel lonely.

Tags: DS Adventuring Perpetual Gamer Reviews

From an intrinsic dislike of that little blue hedgehog, I became pleasantly surprised by this role play game. It looks lovely and works flawlessly. If you're one of those people who tried The World Ends With You DS but found it over complex, then Sonic Chronicles hits the spot. I think I'm coming round to the way of the hedgehog.
