9 November, 2011
By

Electronic Theatre ImageThe forthcoming LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 is perhaps on of the most highly-anticipated family videogame releases set to launch this winter. Familiarity is both a blessing and a curse for many when considering the LEGO franchise videogames, but while the core videogame demographic may have become bored with the coin collecting platform antics of the series, there’s no denying that the family audience will readily lap it up.

Electronic Theatre Preview: Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure

8 October, 2011
By

Now many of you will instantly read the title and assume Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure is another cheap and cheerful Spyro game for kids to enjoy, and not much more than that. Given the recent history of the Spyro the Dragon franchise you’d not be criticised for taking such a stance, but in fact you’d be very wrong. Yes, that lovable purple dragon does feature in Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure, but it’s not solely about the cute fire breathing mythological beast, you can choose to be other characters and will need to in order to complete this new adventure from Activision.

Ubisoft’s Wii exclusive Just Dance caused quite a stir in the latter part of last year and even early into 2010. Repeatedly topping the UK sales charts unexpectedly too all – Ubisoft included, it would appear – the modest package of course deserves a sequel, if not for it’s underdog status then simply to meet the newfound demand for inventive dance games. Just Dance 2 carries that character through in its hyperactive presentation, as despite its predecessor’s success the series is most likely to play second fiddle to Ubisoft’s other forthcoming dancing title, Michael Jackson: The Experience.
