Star Trek: Starfleet Command Review

This game has a somewhat steep learning curve, you really have to understand all the myriad capabilities of your ship, as well as your enemy to survive and prosper, but for the dedicated Star Trek fan its well worth it.

Homeworld 2 Review

To summarise, I think I can honestly say that HW2 will be the 4th game never removed from my HD. I still prefer the original, but that may change as I play HW2 more and more.

Most of my problem with the game lies at its heart. EU: Crown of the North is a boring game…there I said it.

Chariots of War Review

I don’t care what anyone else thinks but to my mind the very thought of marching into battle with only a sword, shield and wearing a mini-skirt, takes testicular warehousing which has pretty much left the human race.

American Conquest Review

Despite these minor niggles (which you soon become accustomed to and work round), the game is eminently playable and a worthy addition to any collection, especially for the history lessons.

Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin Review

Well first off, despite the cries of the truly devoted, Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin (or CMBB to those “in the know”) will not cleanse the world of all sin, drive our enemies out of The Temple and usher in 1000 yrs of peace.

Starships Unlimited: Divided Galaxies Review

In today’s age of supah doopah graphics engines & instant action, Starships Unlimited shouldn’t really have a place to fit in.

MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries Review

Mechwarrior: Mercenaries is a blast - literally. It’s non-stop action from the word go as you pilot your mech around the landscape, destroying all before you (hopefully) and watching out for your ‘lancemates’.

In a nutshell, imagine combining Civilization with Age of Empires, as well as throwing in a smattering of Risk or Total War and you get a game that looks, sounds and IS very impressive.
