    Review | Reset Generation

    N-Gaging.

    At first glance, Reset Generation shares common elements with many other mobile games. The gameplay revolves around falling coloured blocks. The control system is simple, requiring only two buttons and one thumb. The music sounds like it's being banged out on a miniature Commodore 64 by a pixie in a biscuit tin. However, there are two key factors which set Reset Generation apart. Firstly, it hasn't been designed with a casual audience in mind, and secondly, it's not rubbish.

    Should the Army use games to recruit?

    British former Major argues the toss.

    Former Major Neil Powell has said that in terms of age, gender and background, gamers are "precisely the target audience the British Army wants". However, the establishment is so timid and out-of-touch that it "would never dream" of emulating the US Army, which funds its own interest-boosting game, America's Army.

    Review | Darksiders

    When Hyrule the World.

    Difficulty setting: Easy, Normal, Apocalyptic? Darksiders is having fun with the end of the world, rebranding the four horsemen so that they sound like American Gladiators (tempted by the sound of Strife and Fury? They're both totally killer at Powerball), pillaging its favourite pieces of God of War and - yay! - Zelda, and lavishing the whole thing with Joe Madureira's hulking comic book art. If the combined id of antisocial teenage nerds the world over ever vomits up a game, it's going to look a lot like this.

    Review | The Saboteur

    Resistance is futile.

    Apologies for mangling a quote I can only half remember, but I'm pretty sure someone clever once said the true appeal of fascism is largely aesthetic. That's a fairly depressing notion: the 'philosophy' that reduced so much of Europe to a crumbling cinder was, at least in part, born from Hitler being crazy enough to have an idea about how the world should actually look.

    Review | Star Wars: The Old Republic

    Sith sense.

    You can't fault BioWare and LucasArts' showmanship, but when you're working with what they're working with, it's almost too easy. At a recent EA press event, we were shown and allowed to play their Star Wars MMO, The Old Republic, behind closed doors. We suspect this was only so they could have a hydraulic octagonal door to put the game behind, with a Stormtrooper guarding it, quacking officiously at loitering journos. Cheesy? Perhaps, but it's impossible to stop a little genuine excitement slipping into your cynical smile.
