Remember the amazing-looking teaser trailer released earlier this year? A whole bunch of screenshots have been released for Platinum Games' FPS that look equally fantastic.

Demo Impressions: Kane & Lynch 2

Let's not beat around the bush, the original Kane and Lynch was bad. Butt ugly with difficult controls and horrible AI, it certainly didn’t look like sequel material and yet, almost three years later, here we are... with early demo access.

Demo Impressions: Lost Planet 2 Versus

It’s not that Lost Planet 2 looks to be a bad game, but the formula simply doesn’t translate into competitive play.

Demo Impressions: Skate 3

I’m not saying that Skate 3 is a bad game, I had a brilliant time playing around in the demo but it just didn’t seem that different to Skate 2.

Splinter Cell ConViction Demo Impressions

It's taken over two years for the game to ready for public use even if only in the form of a bitesize demo. How is it, you ask? Have a look.

Blur Multiplayer Beta Impressions

You can't fault the presentation of the game. It's the game itself that's at fault: it tries to blend together realistic driving simulation with arcade aspects to create a hybrid racing game and the end product isn't as great as it sounds.

Heavy Rain Demo Impressions

No puns here, I’ve got my serious face on. I have a problem with Heavy Rain and I want to resolve it. A demo of Quantic Dream’s long-awaited interactive experience Heavy Rain was released to the general public last week. I say experience because I still can’t decide whether I should call Heavy Rain a game or not and therein lies my problem. I’m a film guy nowadays but I have been gaming for many years. I’ve...

Fallout: New Vegas Screens and Info

The March issue of PC Gamer UK has the scoop on Fallout: New Vegas with screens and info. Unfortunately, judging by the reused assets and general feeling of déjà vu, early signs are suggesting that New Vegas will be more of the same rather than a revolutionary step forward for the series.  Below is a gallery of screens as well as information compiled from the issue for you to make up your own less jaded and sceptic mind. • There is an...

Dark Void Demo Impressions

If the majority of the game is aerial combat that it will do alright, but if I'm stuck with too much average third person shooting then Dark Void could be one of the early disappointments of the year.

Dante’s Inferno Demo Impressions

In the first 10 minutes of the somewhat lengthy demo, you stitch a giant cross directly onto your chest, slay dozens of enemy fodder, rip a knife out of your back, defy Death himself and steal Death's own scythe to utterly obliterate him with it.

EGX 09: The Saboteur Hands-On

I was shocked then, when I saw the scope of the game and even more so when I saw the cohesion with which the games many elements fit together. The Saboteur does a lot and it does it well.

EGX 09: Assassins Creed 2 Hands-On

AC2 is a sequel that plays it safe, with improved graphics, gameplay, presentation, far more variety and twice the hidden blades it looks to be what we expected, one of the best games of the year.

EGX 09: Split Second Hands-On

Black Rock are on to a winner here, as Split Second doesn’t just blow you away, it blows everything around you away too. With a lot of racing titles, some very high quality titles at that, on their way or already out, it seems that Black Rock either are ignoring this or feel that they have something that can topple the competition with Split Second. The likes of Forza 3, Need For Speed Shift and DiRT 2 among others have raised the bar...

EGX 09: Red Steel 2 Hands-On

I got the opportunity to play some Red Steel 2, and while the graphical quality of the game was high, unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the game itself.Nintendo had a lot on show at the Expo, and Red Steel 2 was just one of the games available to play on their console. However, despite advertising four screens for Red Steel 2, only one was available to play the game on. When the game became available, I jumped in, hoping that...

EGX 09: NVidia 3D Hands-On

I got to have a go with NVidia’s 3D technology at the Expo, and even though the PR guy said that it wasn’t finished yet, it still was fantastic. Almost hidden in plain sight, NVidia had set up a small, 4 PC size 3D gaming showcase in the middle of the showfloor. Surrounded by some of the biggest games on platforms, and with the other PC showcases being in corners of the rooms, NVidia weren’t going to be the biggest thing...

EGX 09: New Super Mario Bros. Wii Hands-On

One of Nintendo’s more interesting games on show at the Expo, New Super Mario Bros Wii certainly felt new, and like Super Mario Bros should. So that’s a good thing.New Super Mario Bros Wii is the latest in a very respectable line of games featuring everyone’s favourite Italian plumber & his friends. The Wii adaptation as you’d expect, since it’s a full retail game, implements the Wiimote, but where this...

EGX 09: Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Hands-On

DICE pull out all the stops and give us a serious competitor to COD. Okay, lets address the elephant in the room right away.  The Bad Company series has always struggled to escape the shadow of Modern Warfare.  The original Bad Company was released 8 months after Call of Duty 4 and still struggled to draw in the dedicated (arguably obsessive) followers of COD4.  Having played Bad Company 2 this weekend however, I can report that DICE...

EGX 09: Avatar 3D Hands-On

Ubisoft pulled out all the stops at the Eurogamer Expo 09, but one of the most intriguing additions was the 3D version of Avatar. I got some time with it, and while the look of it was brilliant, I had this feeling that 3D gaming won’t become standard in the future. For those living under a rock, Avatar is an almost experimental film from James Cameron (Terminator 2), which aims to be the next step in the film industry. Whether or not...

EGX 09: God of War 3 Hands-On

The latest God of War game, the long anticipated next-generation outing, was available in demo form at the expo, and despite the hype being monumental, it lives up to it in gloriously brutal fashion. Every second I played of the demo, I enjoyed. When God of War 3 was getting a lot of built up anticipation, I was skeptical. Yes, the two main titles and its PSP cousin were great games, but could numero trois really be as good as its being...

EGX 09: Developer Session: Brink (Splash Damage)

Paul Wedgwood, the CEO of Splash Damage, gave us a run-through of Brink, and I have to say, I was blown away.Before going to this session, all I knew about Brink was that there were guns, and that is is a video game. I’m glad of that, because I along with a packed room of eager gamers waiting to see what Splash Damage had cooked up, were left very excited by what they’d accomplished. Brink is set in the future, where the police...

EGX 09: Developer Session: Heavy Rain (Quantic Dream)

One of the most highly anticipated video games based on innovation and graphical quality has been on show for the past two days, and Heavy Rain editor and writer David Cage walked us through the game, and just exactly what it is about. Described by David as a “dark interactive thriller”, Heavy Rain takes you on a journey through the lives of four people whose stories have been intertwined by the Origami Killer, a serial killer...
