Portal was an incredible success when it was released in 2007. It was a witty, charming, addictive romp through a virtual puzzle world. The puzzle design was inspired, forcing gamers to think laterally. With 19 test rooms and a final battle with the sarcastic computer AI GlaDOS it was awarded game of the year by many publications and still remains in the list of top ten PC titles of all time for many people.

But all that in mind, this is still the one of the only games to lose many weeks on many playthroughs. I gotta be honest, with my experience in Warcraft, this will be a most interesting series of playthroughs, and should be a solid guide.

Politics, intrigue, assassination and plotting. Going to war against infidels and pleasing the Pope. Claiming land from your neighbors and getting rid of inconvenient family members. That's good old Middle Ages, for you. Read through Mario's review of Crusader Kings II and please, please, do not attempt at home the things he's done.

The other disappointing aspect of the game is that it is generally set in only one type of environment. Given the wide variety we've seen in previous games such as the second and third PS3 games, to go backwards like that is again disappointing. Clearly the PlayStation Vita system has to have some concessions made for it and the fact we are even considering it close to a PS3 level game is a feather in its cap, but with that comparison, some down sides appear. It's definitely closer to Uncharted 1 rather than 2 and 3 in this respect.
However with that said the game is stunning to say the least. It is probably the most beautiful portable game we have seen to date. Obviously with the power of the new system behind it that wasn't going to be hard, but the environments are as intricately detailed and structured as its bigger brother which is quite an achievement for a handheld game. The game also includes full voice acting and sound effects which come out loud and clear from the PlayStation Vita system and is of a quality that the PS3 games have including strong voice work from Nolan North.

Capcom are back with the launch of Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor and rather than develop, or re-use a custom controller they are basing this game on the Xbox 360 Kinect functionality. With an interesting history in the franchise and developed by the team behind games such as Dark Souls can Heavy Armor take a place as the latest key Kinect title?

From the moment you hit the launch button to when you expire in a burning and crumpled mess, the impact of the Hawken Mech Combat FSP video game is almost mesmerizing. Meteor Entertainment and Adhesive Games have produced a gripping and fast paced game that is challenging, and very engaging. Benchmark Reviews has had the opportunity to preview the game during the Open-Beta events 1 and 2.

Asura's Wrath is a new type of game which seamlessly blends action and narrative in an episodic structure more akin to an anime TV drama. We are going to take a look at just what exactly makes this game so unique and whether or not this new approach is an enjoyable one.

In all the Fallout games there has always been a downed alien space ship and if you had been exploring the wastelands of Fallout 3 you would have already noticed it .... sending out an ominous distress call. This call gets answered and once again Bethesda Game Studios have a foundation for another downloadable expansion pack for their hugely successful futuristic title.
