Dragon Age : origins PC review

Story So it is another Bioware game, if you have played their other games it’s pretty easy to guess what’s going to happen here.

This time it is all thanks to a bunch of crazy monks making deals with demons. The main aspect of the...

Why Does Left 4 Dead Servers Suck / Lag?

I’ll tell you why! Just to personally annoy me, nevermind everyone else – me! It’s so annoying. Valve, steam, whoever, really neeed to sort it out. The ‘Dead Air’ Campaign is the worst I’ve noticed, try and get an expert server match for that, half the time it throws me into a PVP server, so I have to return to lobby, and search again.  Then I’ll get 2...

PC Games Industry in Decline?

Just a little random thought I’ve had recently, just as I was remembering about how PC games use to be in big cardboard boxes, 10 times the size of its contents, and of course always in front of you as you went inside the shop door… …Now not so much, I walk into ‘Game Station’ and struggle to find the 2 small shelving units of PC games, with not even a hint of any...

Dawn of War II : Quick Beta Thoughts

Obviously I’m not going to do a full review, that would be a bit silly as this is a beta, athough the curiously named ‘beta’ seemed a little much for something which has clearly passed beta stage. Anyway… lets have a quick look then… What is Dawn of Ware II? Well if your pale skinned, not a vampire, and enjoy computing, your most likely to have encountered Warhammer...

When you think of gaming in general what games pop into mind? You may think off games like Halo, GTA, Tomb Raider, or any other generic mainstream game (of which there has been a lot of releases lately).

Left 4 Dead CPU Problem (including overheating, lag spikes)

Hi Guy’s – Here’s the L4d CPU Fix! I recently in another post talked about my problem with game lag, I did temporarily fix it by cleaning my pc out from tons of dust which was making it overheat. Since then it started again and I found a solution which at least makes the game playable. My cpu is a AMD 6000+ 3.01 GhZ & and I run it with an 8800 GTX. The Fix which worked for...

Fallout 3 for the pc Story The main story follows along the path of “Unknown event leads to quest into an unknown land of unknown-ness”, pretty generic fantasy stuff.

Red Alert 3 Review – What’s Good & What’s Bad

I know this is an ea game, and I do realise I’m boycotting EA, however I have still played this game, and thus I can review it. Plus I’m reviewing the game itself. EA may publish it, but they didn’t create it. Now I’m rarely into campaigns in games, as I tend to get bored of them easily, and this was no excepection, so this review is aimed those who play skirmishes,...

Left 4 Dead Review

It’s sometimes hard not to be bias when you’ve been waiting expectedly for a game for so long, however I will do my best not be! Also I guess it’s fair to say this review wouldn’t be 100% either as the game has only  been out in the UK since yesterday, though I have played it for 5 hours according to my steam account. Overall Buy this game! It’s great fun,...
