    Review | Ratchet and Clank All 4 One

    Quad pro quo.

    Outside of the more tactically minded shooters, "co-op" is fast becoming one of the most abused terms in gaming. Lots of games boast about it but few offer a genuinely co-operative experience. Sticking two players in a gameworld and occasionally asking them to press buttons at the same time to open a door shouldn't really count.

    Interview | Eskil Steenberg: Love Maker

    "I am an entire team! I've had to be an entire team."

    In the days before MineCraft, another Swedish MMO (loosely defined) ruled the roost: Love. Constructed by one man, Love is a watercolour world of base-building, co-operation and conflict, all presided over by an alarmingly sophisticated AI. What takes entire teams of developers days to create can be knocked up by Love maker Eskil Steenberg effortlessly, thanks to an arsenal of powerful, home-grown, time-saving developer tools. As an example of what one man can achieve, Love is awe-inspiring.

    Review | Dead or Alive: Paradise

    Greatest tits.

    To experience the best of Dead or Alive: Paradise, all you need to do is watch the opening cut-scene. Jiggling boobs! Wiggling bottoms! Hair-flipping! Tree-climbing! Two girls barely old enough to take the Key Stage 3 exam licking an ice cream - at the same time! From the shower scene to the final shot of the lady in the pink canoe, it's a cavalcade of impossibly subtle visual metaphors that serves to remind us just how far women have come in their quest for equality.

    One of the pleasures of reviewing downloadable content is that the game itself is a known quantity.

    Review | Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love

    Mecha critic.
