And when you're sick of losing to the computer, you can always go online and get whupped by a bunch of 14-year-olds instead. The only problem is, EA Online has more connection problems than O'Hare during an ice storm. Players will be invisible to each other over the network, they'll get kicked from... read more

John Woo has been pretty quiet since Mission Impossible 2 came out (we'll ignore Paycheck), but it looks like he's been working on something else, the semi-sequel to one of his best films (Hard Boiled) in a computer game format, Stranglehold. In what looks like a Max Payne rip off, you have to kill everything that moves in the most stylish way possible.... read more

Stop right here if you don't have a strange and twisted sense of humour. Still with me? Good... Sam and Max is probably the funniest computer game I have ever played. Sam and Max are Freelance Police which pretty much gives them the chance to solve these very strange and sometimes damn right bizarre... read more

I've been keeping my eye on this one for a while, but unfortunetally details have been far and few between. All we know is that it's to be an 'epic' fantasy game. The previous tech demo videos released were amazing in showing of what will be possible in the game, but gave no real idea of how it would play. This latest video is different, it gives us... read more

I'm eagerly waiting for this title to hit, with the announcement that the demo will soon be here and very hyped. Here's a video showing off some of the cool things you can do in the game: One thing that does worry me a lot is just at the 3 min mark, the commentator says: "you can catch grenades and throw them back at an enemy, which I haven't... read more

Now I'm pretty sick of WW2 first person shooters, as far as I was concerned COD2 was boring, since I had been there and done it before, numerous times before. So when I came to this in the latest Brothers in Arms series I wasn't expecting much... I was given nice surprise. I was amazed by the way the NPCs were reacting, and the effects when you... read more

The folks over at GameSpot have got their hands on the new Gears of War, lucky ducks! Here is a snippet: As good as Gears of War looked on the Xbox 360 (and it looked great), it's got nothing on what it looks like on a high-end PC. That's the first thing that struck us as we got to see and play the upcoming PC version of last year's blockbuster... read more

The developer, Crackpot Entertainment, is staffed with members of the dev teams behind Full Throttle, Day of the Tentacle, Grim Fandango and Curse of Monkey Island. Infested with puns, yes, but it still looks like an awesome adventure game concept and maybe the most promising cockroach adventure since Bad Mojo. It's got my vote with people from... read more

Hitman: Codename 47 Hmmm, where to start? I remember seeing previews and reading up on an upcoming game based around an assassin thinking how cool an idea it was,... read more

Our Company of Heroes review has just been uploaded, this is a wonderful game, although a litle old now, we thought it deserved a review on GTR. We still play it often and now it's so cheap, there is no reason to not pick this up and have a play, WW2 style! read more

See, I am easily old enough to remember the old version of this, with fond, very fond memories, just reading the old blurb and looking at the website of yesteryear brings a tears of joy to my eyes! The new stuff! The Electronic Sports World Cup 2007 finals event taking place in Paris next month is to play host to a playable version of the PC remake... read more

The preview Wanderlust and Violence - Hearing about the open nature of Rapture's levels had us wondering how large these zones really would be. Those expecting some sort of Oblivion experience have been barking up the wrong tree but the levels are definitely large enough to get lost in. Multiple levels with side passages and meandering pathways can... read more

I had never heard of this game before stumbling across it on some website so I wasn't at all prepared for the sheer quality and awe-inspiring graphics and playability of this game... We all have a favourite RTS and mine most def was C&C Generals and Zero Hour, very good games, especially in multiplayer,... read more
