Inversion quick play preview
HANDS-ON Gamescom 2011: hands-on 22 August 2011 17:05 GMT TweetInversion is a game that doesn’t so much defy your expectations as - literally - turn them upside down. What looks like a straightforward third-person shooter in the Gears of War mould turns out to have a distinctive twist.

Resistance 3 quick play preview
HANDS-ON Gamescom 2011: Can you resist? 19 August 2011 13:00 GMT TweetResistance is the perennial nearly man of the blockbuster sci-fi FPS crowd.

The Darkness II quick play preview
HANDS-ON Gamescom 2011: Tentacles-on, more like 19 August 2011 11:35 GMT TweetThe Darkness is one of the most under-rated FPS games of this generation.

Hands on and first impressions of the new driving game from Ubisoft 21 June 2010 10:00 GMT TweetOver a decade in the making, the latest iteration of Driver sees it head over to San Francisco for some driving action, but can a "shift" in gameplay refresh the franchise?

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - quick play preview
Hands on and first impressions of the new multiplayer game from Ubisoft 21 June 2010 9:00 GMT TweetIs it more a case of Assassin's Creed 2.5 than a true sequel? Will this stand-alone episode continue the storyline of the first two outings? Is Ezio still the main protagonist? So many questions, and we have some of the answers.
