Review Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns (Xbox) - A Pricey Expansion That Doesn't Last Long
Is it worth your hard earned koins?
A year after the release of Mortal Kombat 1, NetherRealm Studios has now delivered Khaos Reigns - a story expansion for Liu Kang’s new era. Titan Havik is craving even more "kombat" after the finale of the main game and is now out to plunge the realms into chaos by merging the timelines. And so, the story begins...
Mission Un-failed
Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has been debated, discussed and deemed a surefire disaster ever since it was first properly revealed back in the early stages of 2023. There was, according to what we experienced of the general consensus at least, no way in hell that this most distinguished of devs could...
Review Gotham Knights (Xbox) - A Dark, Dense And Surprisingly Gripping Adventure
The Bat Fam Rises... on Xbox Game Pass this Tuesday!
Update (Mon 2nd Oct, 2023): With Gotham Knights arriving as part of the Xbox Game Pass October 2023 lineup, we thought we'd share our own PX review of the game once again - this is based on the version that launched last year. Gotham Knights has since received a few updates that have improved
Review Mortal Kombat 1 (Xbox) - 30 Years In The Making, But Does It Live Up To The Legacy?
Welcome to Liu Kang's reborn universe
Where do you start with a series as big as Mortal Kombat? The brutal and bloody game has not only popularised and evolved the fighting genre over the past 30 years but also helped transform the video game industry. It had jaws dropping (in more ways than one) during the era of arcade gaming with its unique...
Review Hogwarts Legacy - A Harry Potter Fan's Dream, The Best Game In Franchise History
Somehow, it's lived up to the hype
Harry Potter games have always been popular on Xbox dating back to the early 2000s, but we've never had a particularly great one, perhaps aside from LEGO's Harry Potter Collection. Sure, the Philosopher's Stone and Chamber of Secrets games were definite highlights on the original Xbox, and maybe you even liked some...
Review Back 4 Blood - A Worthy Spiritual Successor To Left 4 Dead
Come slay with me
The first two Left 4 Dead games were classics on the Xbox 360, and Back 4 Blood unapologetically attempts to take that formula and modernise it over a decade later, but the big difference this time is that Valve has nothing to do with it, and the reigns have been taken over by Turtle Rock Studios and Warner Bros. Games. That might...
Review Dying Light: The Following (Xbox One)
Parks and Recreation and Zombies
Dying Light: The Following is a strange proposition that's available in a whole bunch of ways. It's an expansion pack that also alters the main game in a few areas, which can be purchased standalone if you own the original Dying Light without the season pass, will be delivered free if you DO own the season pass, and...
Review Batman: Arkham Knight (Xbox One)
Tanks for the memories
When it was announced that the Batmobile would be making its début in Arkham Knight, there was much skepticism amongst fans of the Arkham series. While the promise of commanding such a capable vehicle and battling an army of tanks sounded like a blast on its own, the concern resided with how this method of transportation...
Are you afraid of the dark?
To say that Dying Light is influenced by developer Techland's other main franchise, Dead Island, would be something of an understatement. Entire gameplay features are reemployed in this title, which admittedly, contains a heck of a lot more polish and refinement than any of the Dead Island games. That isn't to say that...
Review Hot Wheels: World's Best Driver (Xbox 360)
Can't handle it
The Hot Wheels brand has been around for over 40 years now, and feels as synonymous with American culture as hot dogs, apple pie, and baseball. In fact, we’d be surprised to learn of any boy that didn’t have at least one of these classic die-cast cars in their toy-box at some point in their young life. To this day we harbor...
Review Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster (Xbox 360)
"C" is for "charming"
It’s every child’s dream to be able to play with their favourite TV characters. To them, they’re not pretend; they’re just as much a part of their reality as anything else. The talented folks at Double Fine have teamed up with Sesame Workshop to give kids the chance to play with their favourite Sesame Street monsters in...
Review Game Party in Motion (Xbox 360)
Motional breakdown
Kinect's marketing would have you believe the system is a game-changer, bringing new ways of interaction to the home and banishing uninvolving, inaccurate and unplayable minigame compilations to the darkest depths of history. Then along comes Game Party in Motion, lurching to the sensor like a rotting cadaver, leaving only...
