GT5 Prologue Dated for the Colonies

Yep those Americans will be getting there's on April the 17th, so say CVG, and as usual us Brits will just have to hold our whining and sit tight for our own date. Now posting such news on a UK Gaming site might seem a bit pointless but I was so dum struck by the screen shots and other details about the game I could not help myself.

Turns out you'll be able to download this half game demo thing directly from the PSN Store or buy it on blue ray disk and get a making of feature too. What really made me speechless, ok almost, is the level of detail on the interiors of this game, you see the stitching on his gloves for christs sake! and the dials and knobs are very much reach out and touch.  Still the level of realism wont really be enough for me until I can buy fury dice off the PSN Store and hang them of the rear view mirror.....and smelly pine tree..........and put a twix in cup holder.

Chess (Wood)

Having worked through a few retro video games lately I thought I'd try one of the earliest I could find. Similar in play to something like Final Fantasy Tactics on the Game Boy Advanced, Chess is a deep game, easy enough to pick up but becomes brain hemorrhagingly complex very quickly. Oddly for games of this period it's multiplayer only, similar to say Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 with no single player mode. You actually have to have friends to play this and, much like the Game Boy Advanced, they must be sat in front in of you. Mercifully, batteries and link cables are not required which could explain some of its popularity. Chess has evolved a rich tournament following too and global competitions are held regularly, accumulating five times the viewers of the League of Legends World Championships. The game does have its draw backs. It’s very easy for novices to get into a none winnable situation, two pieces following each other round the board until someone nods off. A little of ...

Pokemon Sapphire (GBA)

Here we have the 3 rd Generation of Pokémon Games for the Nintendo handheld console. Sapphire and Ruby. Not a great deal has changed since the first generation and nor will it for the next six. The game consists of you skuttling around a made-up Japanese island hunting creatures into servitude. The poor beings follow you on a long excursion of frequent and arduous battles with other trainers. Eventually culminating in your crowning as Pokémon master of masters of the universe! or some such. The game is a heavily disguised version of more traditional Role-Playing Games. Rather than fighting yourself though, you thrust your hapless creatures in the role of ready cannon fodder. Carefully selecting moves against opponent types in an overly complex version of rock, paper scissors. Your minions evolve, change (sometimes unrecognisably from before) and learn completely new moves. The evolution of these little buddies is quite satisfying, and you soon become quite attached to a few of t...

Devil May Cry 4, Is Reviewed

I'm scarred, I'm scarred because here will be another game that I will buy, spend about 5mins playing before I question my PS3's parentage and sexual activity in loud squeaky voice. I know this will happen mainly because of this line in the review , "the game is kick-in-the-balls tough", yep really looking forward to this. I also KNOW this will happen because exactly the same thing happened to me with DMC3, think I got the bit just after the 3 headed dog (The FIRST boss), then lost my save....Have not played it since. But I know I'll buy it again because I love DMC, 1 was breath of fresh minty air not seen again until God of War came out, 2 was large poo baguette but then 3 while very difficult I did enjoy, once I'd calmed down. Oh but then there is a small glimmer of hope for me, "DMC4 is easier than the third instalment" Thank GOD! Note: Previous incidents mentioned above have honestly almost got me kicked out halls in uni, DOA2, nuff said. CVG
