Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (Xbox 360)

from: Electronic Arts

May 11, 2007
Most of you would think that because this game is on a 360, the controls will be horrible and confusing..... WRONG!!!

The controls are easy and you will be able to play this with ease within half an hour of learning.

Graphics are amazing and the animations of the bases are brilliant.

3 races to play from, GDI,NOD and SCAIN. All have different tech tree's and systems.

A massive campaign (38 levels) i believe, which will keep you entertained for hours.

SUPERWEAPONS!!!!! I love using these, especially on XBL, just total ownage they are.

Overall an excellent game and you won't regret buying this!!!!

Medal of Honor: Airborne (PC DVD)

from: Electronic Arts

September 05, 2007
This game has only one flaw and that is the large machine gun totting SS man in the final chapters...but that aside it is well worth the money.

I have read all of the revues of this game and find some of them laughable. If it is too short try playing it on the hardest level...if it doesn't run on your machine check the spec required first.

I have played every MOH and Brothers in Arms and Call of Duty as they appear and this is by far the best...Call4 is a close second but this is top.

If you have to buy a game for pure pleasure go for this one...if you just want to complain try anything from CDV or better yet Bioshock.

Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth II (Xbox 360)

from: Electronic Arts

July 14, 2006
I really liked this game, the controls are effective and feel natural the missiopns are enjoyable never frustrating and the presentation is excellent. Much like command and conquer it is very familiar all round but the gameplay is not bogged down by annoying cut scenes and novelty missions.

NHL 09 (PS3)

from: Electronic Arts

September 26, 2008
I haven't played any ice hockey games for a number of years, but after the so-so demos for Fifa 09 and PES2009, I decided to take the plunge. I'm so glad I did as this is brilliant.

The graphics and presentation are top notch as you would expect from an EA sports title. The excellent Be a Pro mode (available in all EA sports titles this year) is available and allows you to create your own pro or use an existing one to use for a campaign. You never feel out of place and the arrows telling you where you should be are easy to follow. You also get a lage array of league and national teams to use in all tournaments, leagues etc. You even have a choice of using the new analogue control system or the far simpler NHL 94 controls for the nostalgic amongst you.

Command & Conquer: Kane's Wrath (Xbox 360)

from: Electronic Arts

June 27, 2008
Picture the scene.

You're online, your fighting your mates in a big old battle, you've built up a massive airforce and you're ready to attack. You look for said airforce and you can't find it. It's been destroyed because, all on their own, the units have flown over to the bottom left hand corner of the map. In come the ludicrously overpowered black hand walkers and its game over. EA have admitted its not worth issuing a patch to correct this, as not enough people own the game on the Xbox.

Couple this with the fact that the EA servers are usually down at least three times a week between 5 and 11 and you've got an accurate picture of the frustration this game causes.

Packed full of bugs and rushed out EA have managed to make a classic ... Read More:

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Nintendo DS)

from: Electronic Arts

June 28, 2007
I will begin with my positive thoughts of this game. I really enjoy casting spells which makes good use of the stylus and touch screen and the overall game is not too imposible (which I personally like). However, my negative point is that there is a huge amount of running about and the directional arrow that you have to follow can get a little confusing ocassionally. I think if this game were to be re-designed, Hogwarts should be smaller so it doesn't take as long to get from one place to another and some of the graphics should be a bit better.
Overall, I would recommend this game if you don't want anything too challenging and are a fan of Harry Potter.

Medal of Honor: Vanguard (PS2)

from: Electronic Arts

March 30, 2007
I always look forward to Medal of Honor releases, ever since I had the joy of playing the original game back in 1999.
The game play is classic medal of honor. The levels are split between 4 campaigns taking you from the D-day landings to Operation Market Garden.
The graphics have improved since European Assult, but I felt the gameplay hadn't improved at all. Don't get me wrong the levels are enjoyable, they are no where near as good as some of the levels seen in rival games such as call of duty, or Brothers in Arms.
Medal of Honor games used to lead the way in new ideas for WWII shooters, but this lacks effort even the sound track is taken from previous instalments, and the game is way too short and can easily be completed in a few hours.
Attention to detail is missing ... Read More:

Black & White 2 (PC DVD)

from: Electronic Arts

October 07, 2005
I may be the first to admit, but having played through the entireity of both Black + White games I found that although it has it's flaws BW2 really grew on me with time.

OK, so the actual gameplay was disappointingly short, but once you've completed it you can really appreciate the other things. The BEAUTIFULLY crafted landscapes. The sensual + brilliant soundtrack score. The pleasure of watching a villager progress from infant, to adult, to the retirement home.

Lionhead games have never really been about 'completing the game', they were about appreciating the little things along the way, but if you are the sought of person who blitzes through games just to get to the end then this isn't the sought of game for you.

FIFA 08 (PSP)

from: Electronic Arts

September 28, 2007
I thought fifa 08 was a great game. The psp had great graphics and that is very good for a football game.It was a great game because it has lots of modes and things to do! I the challenge mode there are lots of challenges to go through and best of all you can do lots of things with the points you earn for completing a challenge. In manager mode you get lots of games and get to change players and formation and lots more. You can change the difficulty the camera view bookings injeries and offside. I think this was a good use of my time
