Ben 10 gets his wheels with Galactic Racing
If you have a small boy aged between about 4 and 7, you’re likely to be very familiar with Ben 10. Just quickly, for the uninitiated, Ben 10 is Ben Tennyson, ‘an ordinary boy’ who finds a weird alien watch, which turns out to be Omnitrix (or the Ultramatrix as it becomes in later series). This alien device turns Ben into a number of aliens,…
PS Vita: A hand holding guide to your new handheld

Alienware X51: Big things in a small package
There are some people to whom gaming is not just a game. You know who you are. And you know deep down that it’s *just* a game right? You can have a really engaging round of tiddlywinks if you have the right people. I know you’re shaking your head in disgust so I’ll tell what you want to hear. If you crave power, performance and…
PS Vita: High end handheld gaming but strictly for the hardcore
Alright, okay. Calm down! Chillax! What’s all the hubbub about this bloomin’ PS Vita thing then? Well, with on-the-go gaming now done primarily on the good ol’ smart phone device, many other great tech and gadget websites have been arguing that it’s a little bit silly to be producing a brand new hand-held console in the rather sultry shape of the PS Vita. Indeed, first…
Hands on with OnLive and the future of gaming
OnLive, the Spotify of gaming, has been around for a while with its quiet promises of revolutionising home entertainment. If you’ve not yet read the pamphlet (or Jack’s in-depth article on the service here), OnLive are hoping to move the gaming industry into the future, enabling users to stream the latest games into their houses via relatively small and inexpensive software. The OnLive Micro-Console isn’t…
Hottest Video Games to buy this Christmas
Ask any casual gamer which title they would like most to have this Christmas, and you can bet any money you want that Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 will be on the tip of their tongue. Yes yes, we know, we have heard it all before – surely there’s more to video games this year than the multi-million selling first person shooter? Of course…
Gear up for war! Logitech announce new Call of Duty-inspired keyboards and mice
With the world and his uncle gibbering in excitement by the prospect of playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, what better way to prepare yourself by investing in a COD-styled keyboard and mouse set? The Logitech G105 gaming keyboard and G9X mouse have been especially designed to improve your gameplay and allows you to pull off tricky maneuvers that would be nigh on impossible…
Smartphone gaming, convergence and the LG Optimus 3D
Convergence is one of the big watchwords in smartphones and mobile devices manufactures have long been promising us “one handset to rule the all”. And in many cases it’s quite a valid case. My iPod is all but dead to me, as most smartphones offer a comparable listening experience. In fact with their always-one Internet connection, an all-you-can-eat data plan and apps such as Instacast…
Hector: Ep1 HD – We Negotiate with Terrorists
The iPad’s status as a viable gaming platform is a constant source of debate amongst overly passionate console devotees with empty lives. However as the number of game studios developing for the platform grows it’s harder to argue against the fact that people seem to enjoy playing games on their iPads (ten nerds have just spat out their coco-pops in fury). Whilst some are simply…
Nintendo at E3: Wii U and endless unanswered questions
Nintendo has just finished its E3 press conference and as many had predicted they did show off their new console which has been named Wii U – but in true Nintendo fashion they did their way by only showing off the revolutionary controller and not the actual console itself. It was more like a half unveil with the actual console being shown off properly sometime…
Sony at E3: Alive & kicking with PS Vita and Playstation 3D TV
Sony had their E3 press conference recently and it showed that the Playstation brand is in rude health as Sony unveiled 2 new pieces of hardware and plenty of new games. Before any of the announcements Sony US boss Jack Tretton took to the stage and talked about the Playstation Network hack and offered his and the companies sincere apologies. Addressing consumers, he said: “You…
Roxio Game Capture
The Roxio Game Capture has been designed to let you record and edit your Xbox 360 and PS3 best moments on your computer. That’s great, but we’ve got a better use for it: plugging your PS3 into your laptop. If you’re under 18, you’ll know what it’s like. You have your powerhouse of a laptop, but your super-hot games console is tied to your living…
Nintendo 3DS review of reviews
The Nintendo DS, along with the Wii, has managed to change the face of gaming. Even the least games-playing types have managed to have a go at Brain Training, or have squeezed in an exercise session in on the Wii Fit. Certainly among primary-school children the DS is the gaming console of choice, whether they’re in the car or on a train – and it’s…
Zone – console gaming on the cheap
Everyone loves a bargain. Unfortunately, when that bargain happens to look like something more expensive with much worse functionality, people are bound to be disappointed. Enter the Zone 3D, 60 and 100. Each of Zone’s products closely resembles a market competitor: the Zone 3D is Playstation-like, the 60 is all Wii (complete with accessories) and the 100 has a more-than-passing resemblance to the Xbox 360….
