KOTOR 3 Poll Results...

... 4 want it, 1 is undecided...

Since the news I blogged about here, however, it looks extremly unlikely to ever happen.

Oh well...

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for PC - Review and Screenshots

Same story as the first game really - loads of fun but not enough challenge and not long enough. Still, worth a look if you can get it cheap - which you should be able to do easily enough.

SWTOR...

Star Wars: The Old Republic is an MMORPG based in the Star Wars universe, set a few centuries after the events of Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2 (which hopefully means there'll be room for a third KOTOR game!). Click Here for more details.

Screenshots from #51 in my Top 100 Games List

Some people loved it, some people hated it... I was one of the former. Jedi Academy wasn't the most demanding game ever, but it was a lot of fun.



Create your character...



Select a mission...



Take aim (lightsabers just don't do the job sometimes...)



That's gotta hurt...



Fear my mighty force powers! I shall smite thee mightily... just see if I don't!

Sam & Max Season One - Review

Well, this turned out to be a great little game - it would have been nice to have more episodes, but it was still thoroughly enjoyable and I definitely recommend it. This game is available on certain consoles, but for me the mouse will never be surpassed as the best controller for point and click adventures!!

Sam & Max Season 1

Speaking of games which are looking really good so far, Sam & Max: Season 1 has really impressed me so far. I want to actually complete it before reviewing it, as I can't quite decide whether it's a 4-star or 5-star game yet... the last 2 episodes (there are 6 in all) will decide that! I have to admit that the idea of an episodic adventure game works far better than I'd expected.

Full review coming soon! (Well, unless I get really stuck on the last couple of episodes...)

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Having recently completed and reviewed Harry Potter and the Philospher's Stone, I've started playing The Chamber of Screts and had been wondering if it would be more of the same - enjoyable but with a feeling that it was a rushed job, and with a little more polish could have been excellent. Well, so far it seems that this is the finished article - the developers have basically kept everything that was good about the first game, enhanced it, tidied up a few weak areas and added some great extra content. So far, so good... full review coming sometime soon.

Harry Potter and the Philospher's Stone for PC - Review

Not a bad little game, a lot of fun and good variety in the gameplay; unfortunately it had a few problems and aesthetically was very unimpressive. Still if you liked the book / film, I think you'll get some enjoyment out of it, and you can buy the first three Harry Potter games together in one pack quite cheaply nowadays.

Since the graphics aren't up to much I'll give you the cover artwork instead!

Read my full review of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for PC. (In the States and elsewhere [I guess] it's called Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Perhaps the term "Philospher's Stone" is uniquely English?!?!)

Top right of the blog... would you like to see a third KOTOR (Knights of the Old Republic) game? I certainly would... if they get the storyline right, anyway.

New PC Game Review - "Beyond Divinity"

This is a very good RPG (though some of the voice acting is truly dire!) - fans of the genre should check it out.

Read my Beyond Divinity Review. If you've ever played the game "Divine Divinity" (I haven't), this is the sequel - but then you probably already know that!!
