Reviews

  • Halo 3: ODST

    An awesome campaign and addictive new Firefight mode make ODST a thrilling new entry in the Halo franchise.

  • Halo Wars

    Halo Wars is a fun strategy outing for fans of the universe, but it feels simplistic and short alongside other games in the genre.

  • Panasonic Viera TX-37LZ800M

    This flagship 2008 Panasonic Viera LCD TV delivers brilliant colours and soulful sounds, but is held back by a less than ideal PC resolution support and a broken anti-judder 24p function.

  • Mass Effect

    An excellent story and fun battles make this a universe worth exploring.

  • Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    The single-player campaign is over in a flash, but the high quality of that campaign and its terrific multiplayer options make Call of Duty 4 a fantastic package.

  • Halo 3

    Halo 3 builds upon the concepts of Halo 2 in ways that you'd expect, but there are also new modes and options that send the series in exciting new directions.

  • Shadowrun

    Shadowrun is an online FPS combining a mixture of magic and technology. It is also one of the first games to allow PC players to face-off against Xbox 360 players.

  • Gears of War

    Believe the hype -- Gears of War is a great action shooter, and is one of the first games to look truly next-gen. It may not deliver too much when it comes to gameplay innovation, but you'll be having too much fun to notice.

  • Dead or Alive 4

    Dead or Alive 4 is one of the must-have games for new Xbox 360 owners.

  • Perfect Dark Zero

    This awesome, high-tech first-person shooter champions the Xbox 360 with its excellent assortment of single- and multiplayer game types, as well as its incredible good looks and dynamic, intense action.

  • Call of Duty 2

    On the Xbox 360, this first-rate WWII first-person shooter is every bit as intense and hard-hitting as the PC version of the game.

  • Xbox 360

    The first 'next generation' console to hit Australia, the Xbox 360 promises plenty of extras aside from gaming. Should you rush out and buy one? Read our extensive Australian review to find out.

  • Rainbow Six Lockdown

    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six series has always been known amongst first person shooter aficionados as a tactical look into the world of modern combat. How does the latest in the series, Lockdown, fit into the picture?

  • Conker: Live and Reloaded

    Conker was oh-so-edgy for the Nintendo 64 five years ago, but now he's back for the Xbox. Have the years been kind to our favourite foul mouthed squirrel?

  • Pariah: Xbox review

    The Xbox may not have as comprehensive a library as the PlayStation 2, but one thing it's certainly not lacking is quality first person shooters. Into this crowded space headed by the likes of Halo 2 and the recently released Unreal Championship 2 comes Pariah, a new futuristic shooter from Digital Extremes.

  • Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict

    What do you get if you cross Prince of Persia, Soul Calibur and Quake, and then pump the volume up to 11? Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict.

  • Doom 3: Xbox review

    Ladies and gentlemen, start your chainsaws. Hell finally comes to your Xbox.

  • Pariah: Xbox and PC preview

    Can Pariah hope to fill Halo's shoes? Early indications are looking good. Read our Australian preview.

  • Star Wars Republic Commando

    A well-paced, albeit brief, single-player campaign will keep adrenaline junkies thrilled from the first dropship landing to the final dust-off.

  • Halo 2

    Despite a rather short campaign and a disappointing storyline, Halo 2 is an exceptional shooter that frequently delivers thrilling, memorable, and unique moments in its online, co-op, and single-player modes.
