Jurassic Park Not Operation Genesis, in which you made your own dino-park. Although that was rather great, in a ‘Rollercoaster Tycoon with claws, screaming and guests fouling themselves when the Tyrannosaurus leaves his paddock for a stroll’ sort of way. I speak --as if you didn’t know-- of the Mega Drive/Genesis release, Jurassic Park. But not…

Mewtwo GAH! Hold on to your underpants and lock grandma in the closet (for her own protection, naturally), it’s Mewtwo! Anybody who vainly endeavored to catch this bugger back in 1998 knows what a fiend Mewtwo is. Your buddy Brian lied and told you that hammering the Up and A buttons helped, but it didn’t. It…

DLC I'm not too sure if DLC was a byproduct of consumer's needs or simply to make money for the studios. I sincerely expect it was the latter, if not simply because that isn't how consumers think. I guess it's not too risque of me to say that people are generally unhappy with the idea…

Mayhem Continuing our journey into the more obscure corners of the Gamingsphere, we have another indie release. This time, we’re fleshing out one of video games’ more neglected genres: the Help Tiny Cartoon Dudes Not to Pee on the Floor 'em up. Because that’s totally a thing, mostly courtesy of Men’s Room Mayhem. This arcade title…

Polterguy My favourite console (bar none), the Mega Drive, had quite a long and relatively prolific life. Sonic the iconic, Alex Kidd with the craptacular sideburns, the RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE wonders of Altered Beast, it was all there. Which means, naturally, that retro heads will find all kinds of weirdness in its library. Among it…

MediEvil Here’s a game that knows the surest path to my affections: have a craptacular pun in your title. Cult classic MediEvil was released for the PlayStation in 1998. It’s an oddly gothic action-adventure from what is now Killzone’s Guerrilla Studios, and is often regarded as among the console’s best. Grab your sword, shield and... bizarre…

Super Mario Oh yes indeed. Everybody knows these cheeky buggers. They’re gaming’s most adorable ghosts, with their hiding-faces-in-their-hands-like-a-three-year-old shenanigans. The last thing you’d ever expect to KILL YOU RIGHT IN THE FACE. Don’t turn your back on them! The Boos made their first appearance in Super Mario Bros. 3. Back then, their official name was the puntacular…

Tomodachi Life Some video games are just uniquely Japanese. They have an inimitable sense of the wackily charming and the charmingly wacky. This same spirit brought forth the Miis, the adorable little player avatars of the Wii and 3DS. And now, here they are in the fairly obscure release Tomodachi Life. This Eastern handheld sensation is…

Laptops Being mobile today is a must and more and more gamers are moving from their desktop computers to gaming laptops for the added mobility benefits and the ability to game on the go. Therefore, we've decided to check out tens of cheap gaming laptops, compare them, find the top ones to get and share…

Mario Kart Mario Kart 8 has been plying its trade on Wii Us the world over for a couple of weeks now. Shells, banana peels and fancy new boomerang flowers have been flying all over the darn place. As has a heaping helping of profanity. This is Mario Kart after all, and a dose of…
