Electronic Theatre Preview: Metal Slug: Super Vehicle
Posted on 26 May, 2005 | No CommentsMetal Slug is a bit of an odd-ball when it comes to mainstream releases. Present in the arcades during my childhood, the title vanished into obscurity shortly after due to its limited release on all-too-scarce Neo-Geo machines. Briefly surfacing in the poorest edition in... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Half-Life 2
Posted on 26 May, 2005 | No CommentsHalf-Life 2 couldn’t have been received with any greater praise when it was released late in 2004 for the PC. With graphics, physics and gameplay unparalleled by any first-person-shooter available for the PC to date it comes as no surprise to learn that is... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Stargate SG-1
Posted on 26 May, 2005 | 1 CommentStargate SG-1 is a title of many expectations. For the fans of the series it has a lot to stand-up to and, for those not particularly well-versed with the escapades of Colonel Jack O’Neil and Captain Samantha Carter, the title has a lot to... -
E3 2005: Game Boy Micro
Posted on 25 May, 2005 | No CommentsThe Game Boy Micro. Nintendo’s latest bid in the recently re-opened war for handheld dominance takes the Game Boy series into the extreme style territory. Pausing for only a moment to gasp at the clarity of the tiny screen fused into the device, it’s... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Herby: Fully Loaded
Posted on 24 May, 2005 | No CommentsBefore I get started with this one – don’t start spitting at the screen in disgust. Yes, this is Herby. No, this is not some cheap cash-in on a 30-year-old film; this is a brand new, well thought-out production. However, whether or not a... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Posted on 24 May, 2005 | 1 CommentFire Emblem: Path of Radiance is a turn based role-playing strategy game, the first Fire Emblem title for the GameCube. At first I found it very difficult to get into, having not playing the Game Boy Advance predecessors, turn based games with lots of statistics... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe
Posted on 24 May, 2005 | No CommentsWhen I found out that a game (and a movie) was being made of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, my heart sank. There goes another of my childhood memories down the pan. But I was a little pleasantly surprised... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Geist
Posted on 24 May, 2005 | No CommentsGeist for the GameCube has been long anticipated by many (including myself) and getting the chance to play it at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) was one of the highlights. Although they only let us play the multi-player rather than the main game (grrr…)... -

Electronic Theatre Preview: Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix
Posted on 23 May, 2005 | No CommentsFinally, Konami have made a Dance game for the GameCube – with a classic Nintendo twist of course. Dance, Dance Revolution: Mario Mix is pretty similar to Konami’s other dancing games. For those not familiar with the Dance Revolution franchise there are four pads on... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows
Posted on 23 May, 2005 | No CommentsGauntlet: Seven Sorrows for the Xbox is what many fans have been waiting for. I started off playing the title in single player although the game allows other players to jump in at any time just by hitting the A button. You can play as... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects
Posted on 23 May, 2005 | No CommentsWith videogames crossing with other entertainment sectors as if they can’t come up with any new ideas of their own, it’ll be no surprise to see that EA have jumped on the comic-book-cross-over band wagon. Marvel Nemesis: Rise Of The Imperfects is the latest... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Tim Burtons’ The Nightmare Before Christmas
Posted on 22 May, 2005 | No CommentsTim Burtons’ The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King shall be released for the Game Boy Advance in conjunction with games for the home consoles. The title appears to be aimed at younger players as it is a very straightforward 2D-platformer. It doesn’t appear to... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Killer7
Posted on 22 May, 2005 | No CommentsFor a title that has managed to elude the media’s judgement since its original announcement, Killer7 will need little introduction to Nintendo fans. The basic premise of the title is that, through Harman Smith, players will control one of seven alter-egos each with varying... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: StarCraft: Ghost
Posted on 22 May, 2005 | No CommentsHaving been in delay-hell for what seems to be, well, forever, StarCraft: Ghost now appears to be reaching completion.

Electronic Theatre Preview: The Sims 2
Posted on 22 May, 2005 | 1 CommentThe Sims 2 for Xbox was being previewed at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) and although they wouldn’t let me get my mitts on the control pad at all; they were more than happy to show me what the game was all about – denoting... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: 24: The Game
Posted on 22 May, 2005 | No Comments24: The Game is a spin off from the hit TV series 24. It is said to be set between season 2 and 3 and will hopefully fill in some of the blanks left by the show. From what was seen in the Electronic Entertainment... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsNintendo are back on form, proving once again that it is not the Final Fantasy series, nor the Dragon Quest franchise that dominates the RPG genre, but The Legend Of Zelda. Having been able to sneak nearly an hours worth of play out of... -
E3 2005: Xbox
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsWhile many have Microsoft’s Xbox360 announcement pegged as the greatest of the show, you’d be very mistaken to think the company’s Xbox showing was lack-lustre. While any truly amazing first-party products were a bit thin on the ground, their second and third-party offerings were... -
E3 2005: PlayStation2
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsI’m sure that it’ll be no shock to any regulars at the Electronic Theatre to learn that of all the systems previewing software at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) this year, none had as much software on such a grand scale as the PlayStation2.... -
E3 2005: Game Boy Advance
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsWith all the hype surrounding the PSP and NintendoDS – and the all new Game Boy Micro – you’d be forgiven for thinking that the Game Boy Advance had a poor showing. You’d be forgiven, but you’d still be wrong. With the Game Boy... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Shadow the Hedgehog
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsIt seems this game doesn’t quite know what it’s doing. I believe it supposed to be a 3D-Platformer, although it tries to be very fast paced as other Sonic games, which doesn’t marry into a good combination. On one of the levels which was playable... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Soul Calibur III
Posted on 21 May, 2005 | No CommentsThe next instalment in the Soul Calibur franchise comes as a PlayStation2 exclusive. With over 25 characters, three of which were playable on the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) Demo on different modes, from the old favourites such as Mitsurugi, recent additions such as Talim and... -
E3 2005: GameCube
Posted on 20 May, 2005 | No CommentsWhile many UK gamers have deemed the GameCube all but dead-and-buried, the industry itself would have a hard time considering the system anything but in its prime. With Revolution details still pretty thin on the ground, even after the systems’ unveiling, continuing to establish... -
Electronic Theatre Preview: Hello Kitty: Roller Rescue
Posted on 20 May, 2005 | No CommentsWelcome to the colourful world of Sanriotown. A bright and cheerful place which has been overrun by aliens which look like boxes.

Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Spawn Armageddon
Posted on 30 April, 2005 | No CommentsWhile the Spawn comic-book series may have broken into films, animated series, action figures and much more associated merchandise, its videogame legacy is much more forgettable. Only in recent years has Spawn managed to prove himself a draw worthy of console releases of note,... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Banjo Pilot
Posted on 26 April, 2005 | No CommentsOn the verge of the release of the mighty PlayStation Portable (PSP) and merely a few weeks after the launch of the incredible NintendoDS, I decided to look at another handheld’s releases – does every game have to be big and flashy? A call to... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Tak2: The Staff of Dreams
Posted on 14 April, 2005 | No CommentsThe first Tak title launched on all three major formats in 2004 to much appreciation from the industry – a refreshing look at creating a “kids” game that adults could enjoy. With humour akin to The Simpsons both adults and children could find enjoyment... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Soul Calibur II
Posted on 6 April, 2005 | No CommentsSoul Calibur launched as the descendant of Soul Blade on the DreamCast to much admiration. A follow-up was ensured, but the discontinuation of DreamCast hardware and subsiding of the Arcade market, Namco’s brutal battler had to find a new home. With three power-hungry beasts on... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: DOOM3
Posted on 4 April, 2005 | No CommentsThe Doom franchise bought the First-Person-Shooter genre to the forefront of the gaming industry. Contrary to popular belief, Doom was not actually the first FPS, nor was it actually the best of it’s era, but none-the-less, the Doom franchise goes down in history as being...
