    Kung Fu Chaos - Xbox review

    3.5 REVIEW 14 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    The four player game's gameplay is based on a...

  • The storyline is the special operative style, doing lots of little critical missions to change the course of the war, and help out your allies on the way.

    Medal of Honor Frontline - PS2 review

    4.0 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    Medal of Honor was one of the best selling games on the PlayStation, so good in fact, that it had a sequel, Underground, and a PC version, Allied Assault (with expansion pack, Spearhead). The acronym has become synonymous with the military world, so it...

    MechAssault - Xbox review

    4.5 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    The Battletech and MechWarrior series has always had a good following. With over six instalments on the PC, Microsoft has finally brought the game to the X-Box. Taking all the craft and simplifying it somehow, the conversion overall is a very good one.

    4.5 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    With digital technologies converging, the days when man could get by with a little black phone book, a couple of notes scrawled on the back of a bar receipt and a mobile phone in the other pocket are long gone. Today the modern business exec needs something...

    Dead or Alive - Xtreme Beach Volleyball - Xbox review

    4.0 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    Where does one start with this title? Of course you could champion that the game fills that all-important void in the beach volleyball video game category. You could also argue that surely it is better to have the youth of today playing team sports rather...

  • Brute Force - Xbox. Gaming, Xbox, FPS, Microsoft 0

    Brute Force - Xbox review

    4.0 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    To clear something up from the beginning - Brute Force is not the strategic tactical squad-based game that Microsoft want to you believe it is - a sort of Halo on speed with more players and better co-op mode. Those looking for a Counter-Strike, one-shot...

  • Creative Jukebox 3

    Creative Jukebox 3 review

    3.5 REVIEW 1 October 2003 0:00 GMT

    When the Creative Jukebox was first released in 2000, it was a big, clumpy heavy thing. Now two years down the line and like mobile phones, Creative has managed to trim this machine down in both size and weight (it is now 107 grams lighter) and the player...

    Otogi: Myth of Demons - Xbox review

    3.5 REVIEW 23 September 2003 0:00 GMT

    A minimal storyline suggests this game is for one thing, and one thing only - carving your way through the action.

    Based around your average Japanese demon story, you play Raikoh a ninja styled dude, freeing trapped demons within each level...

  • Dane-elec zMate Pen USB

    Dane-elec zMate Pen USB review

    4.0 REVIEW 23 September 2003 0:00 GMT

    When we were all a lot younger, it seemed a floppy disk would suffice for all our file and data transferring needs. Surely we would never need to transfer files greater than 1.44Mb. If we did we'd simply split it across a couple of disks and be done with...

  • The SST-768

    Harmony SST-768 remote control review

    4.5 REVIEW 1 September 2003 0:00 GMT

    Any home entertainment user will tell you. The main problem with their system is not placing the five or more speakers in the room, nor trying to get the right bracket to hang the plasma from it's what to do with all the damn remotes.

  • Graphics are very similar to the first version and therefore similar to other FPS of late.

    Red Faction 2 - PC review

    4.0 REVIEW 28 August 2003 0:00 GMT

    When Red Faction hit the shelves some 15 months ago, it was one of those first person shooters than changed the way FPS where looked at. Like RTS, there is a very strong danger that every new game can look and act like the old, merely in a different location....

  • Alien versus Predator Extinction - Xbox

    Alien versus Predator Extinction - Xbox review

    2.5 REVIEW 17 August 2003 0:00 GMT

    When the first version of Aliens versus Predator burst on to our PC screens some five years ago, the word on everyone’s lips was of fear. Rebellion, the games developers had managed to create a First Person Shooter (FPS) that broke boundaries. For starters...

    Olympus C-50 review

    4.0 REVIEW 23 July 2003 23:21 GMT

    Compacted in a rather small if not heavy case, the C-50 is no slouch when it comes to offering the photographer what they want. For starters the camera boasts five mega pixels, a 3x optical and 5x digital zoom and if that wasn't enough, it's all contained...

  • Olympus C-350. Cameras, Compact cameras, 3 megapixels, Olympus, Digital cameras 0

    Olympus C-350 review

    3.5 REVIEW 23 July 2003 23:16 GMT

    When the C-300 was launched last year many complained that it was too large and bulky to be taken seriously as a three million pixel camera. Now its predecessor, the C-350, has addressed style, weight and bulkiness to become a leaner, meaner 3Mp camera....

    Pinnacle Instant Copy review

    0.5 REVIEW 14 July 2003 0:00 GMT

    While some software packages pride themselves on being the best that they can be, others seem to not only fall short of the mark, but miss the boat completely. Pinnacle has in the past been renowned for making great movie editing suites, whether it's...

    As the name would suggest, this is the latest basketball title for the Xbox from Microsoft and offers a host of options for diehard fans of the game that also happen to have a Xbox. Of course to us Brits, Basketball isn't as popular unless you count the...

    Halo: Combat Evolved - XBox review

    4.5 REVIEW Master Chief is here to save the day 14 July 2003 0:00 GMT

    If we where to say that soon there'll be a game that crosses the graphical interface of such titles as Oni and Aliens vs Predator 2 and with a story line to the value of Half life, it might just make you sit up and read on. It's no hoax, for Bungie,...
