Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is a likely contender for being the best game this year. Award-winning developer Naughty Dog has done an amazing job with this title, bring action, humor, and romance to the PlayStation 3 in an almost movie-like experience. The game was released in Europe on October 16th 2009 and was met with many perfect reviews. The Official PlayStation Magazine (the US, UK and Australian editions) gave Uncharted 2 100%, as did EuroGamer, CVG and many other critics.
Assassins Creed 2 starts with a quick recap on the events of the first game to remind players of the confusing plot which intertwines events from the past and modern day. Once the recap is done the game puts you back in control of subject 17 also known as Desmond Miles. You take control of Desmond at the exact point that the previous game left off with Desmond standing in his Abstergo cell staring at a bloodied wall of cryptic messages.
Modern Warfare 2 begins five years after the events of the original game with the world in an unsettled state, on the brink of global warfare. The main reason behind this is a man called Vladimir Makarov, the leader of a Russian ultra-nationalist organisation, with ambitions of global chaos.
The PSPgo is the latest PSP model from Sony, released on October 1st 2009. The PSPgo is the smallest and lightest PSP yet, weighing in a just 160g. It’s 50% smaller and 40% lighter than the original PSP (PSP-1000). We’ve been playing with the PSPgo for a couple of days now and though it was about time we share out thoughts. In short, the new model is great but there are a few short-comings.
Set 50 years after the climactic events of the original Red Faction, Red Faction: Guerrilla allows players to take the role of an insurgent fighter, named Mason, with the newly re-established Red Faction movement as they battle for liberation from the oppressive Earth Defense Force (EDF). Your mission is to help the Red Faction eradicate the EDF from Mars. This sequel has moved away from the first-person perspective and uses third-person instead.
