Reviews

  • Buzz! Brain of Oz

    If you fancy yourself as an expert on Australiana, Buzz! Brain of Oz might be the go for you. Be careful, though, the questions do get rather obscure and tricky at times, and there's the odd brain stumper about the motherland in there too.

  • Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues

    The second Indiana Jones adventure expands and builds upon the previous, making for the best game yet in the Lego series.

  • Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier

    Solid gameplay, challenging platform puzzles and a touch of whacky humour make Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier a good addition to Sony's much-loved series.

  • Colin McRae: DiRT 2

    If you have any interest whatsoever in off-road racing you'd do well to take this beautiful and thrilling game for a spin.

  • Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter

    Despite its originality and charm, Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter is a mediocre platforming game.

  • Fight Night Round 4

    Though definitely an improvement over its predecessor, this boxing game isn't without a few problems.

  • Style Boutique

    One part fashion mix and match, one part introduction to consumerism. Style Boutique's a weird little game, especially coming from Nintendo, but tween girls will love it regardless.

  • Cars Race-O-Rama

    Cars Race-O-Rama is a terribly generic racer aimed at the younger crowd. It's neither great nor awful, just absolutely middle-of-the-road gaming.

  • Best televisions for gaming

    So you've bought yourself a spanking new PlayStation 3 and you're thinking about buying a flatscreen, but what should you choose?

  • Best sports games

    Most of us aren't born with the ball-thwacking ability of Tiger Woods, the wheel twirling skills of Michael Schumacher or the heading ability of Tim Cahill.

  • ABC iView live on PS3

    Less of a "channel" and more of a "bookmark", ABC's iView service went live after months of anticipation on the Sony PlayStation 3 on the weekend. Is this a new area of video-on-demand free of the shackles of Freeview?
