Review

Dark Void is a new game from developer Airtight Games, trying to bring something new to the; "take cover, shoot bad guys over chest-high walls" games that have cropped up in recent years. They do this, by adding some fun flying sections to the game, and a verticle cover system. It's quite an interesting concept, but is it done well enough to be a good new franchise?

Alley Gator by Dan Pearson | 04-02-10

As a kid there was the an urban legend, pet alligators being flushed down the toilet and mutating to huge sizes in the New York sewerage system chowing down on all that dared to cross their path. Alley Gator has similar beginnings but he is more interested in running through the sewers eating chillies and trying to escape to a tropical island. Doesn’t he know he is freshwater he will surly perish, foolish gator!

Darksiders by Michael Black | 02-02-10

The great thing about Darksiders having so many clear influences is you get to have what you love about a great swathe of games in one place; the visceral satisfaction from God of War, the balletic combat of Devil May Cry and the gadget fuelled exploration of Zelda. These don't get in the way of each other, are all done extremely well and all feature in Darksiders. You play the game wondering why nobody mixed those things before. It’s like witnessing the first time someone put peanut butter and jam together and om-nom-nomming all over it.
