Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Sacred Citadel
Posted on 12 May, 2013 | No CommentsThe Sacred franchise may not be the biggest name in the videogames industry, but it’s developed enough of a following to support not only a third title, but also a spin-off in another genre. Sacred Citadel is the unlikely scrolling beat-‘em-up offspring of an action... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Poker Night 2
Posted on 10 May, 2013 | No CommentsTelltale Games are developing a reputation for adapting existing franchises into interactive experiences that offer an obvious juxtaposition to the source material. Their latest release, Poker Night 2, does exactly this with a number of beloved characters, and is both respectful and humorous with it.... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
Posted on 1 May, 2013 | No CommentsLaunching on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC today via each system’s respective digital service(s), Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is somewhat of an unusual videogame production. Its self-effacing humour isn’t unique but it’s far from common; even more so from a big publisher and... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Motocross Madness
Posted on 16 April, 2013 | No CommentsAvailable to download from the Xbox LIVE Arcade now, Motocross Madness crept out of nowhere with very little in the way of an announcement or even screenshots, trailers or press coverage. Considering the misguided view of the Xbox 360’s line-up as lacking in exclusive titles,... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Alien Spidy
Posted on 3 April, 2013 | No CommentsKalypso Media’s campaign to make an impression on the console gaming scene in 2013 continues this week with the launch of Alien Spidy. Sandwiched between the strategy and mayhem of Omerta – City of Gangsters and Dollar Dash, and the upcoming stealth action of DARK,... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Terraria
Posted on 27 March, 2013 | No CommentsConsidered to be the indie darling in Minecraft’s shadow (forgetting that Minecraft itself started life as a indie title) Terraria today makes it’s console debut via 505 Games, a publisher that is more frequently becoming associated with taking risks in impressively innovative titles as opposed... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Darkstalkers Resurrection
Posted on 26 March, 2013 | 1 CommentWhether fans of the modern beat-‘em-up genre acknowledge it or not, they have a lot to thank the Darkstalkers franchise for. While Street Fighter maintained its status as Capcom’s cash cow, it was Darkstalkers that allowed the company to experiment, to address alternatives and gauge... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Dollar Dash
Posted on 6 March, 2013 | No CommentsLaunching on the Xbox LIVE Arcade and PC today (and coming to PlayStation Network in the bear future) Candygun Games’ Dollar Dash is the kind of experience that console digital distribution systems were made for, and yet are so rarely seen these days. A gentle... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Serious Sam Double D XXL
Posted on 19 February, 2013 | No CommentsMaking its console debut after a successful outing on PC, Serious Sam Double D XXL is not the videogame you may be expecting. Prior to the launch of Serious Sam 3: BFE on PC, Devolver Digital had hired three independent studios to expand the franchise... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Retro City Rampage
Posted on 8 January, 2013 | No CommentsHaving begun life in 2002, you could say that Retro City Rampage has taken its sweet time coming to mainstream platforms. However, this would only be half the story as Retro City Rampage is more than just a single videogame production: its one man’s long... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Planets Under Attack
Posted on 2 January, 2013 | No CommentsTopWare Interactive’s Planets Under Attack has seen a number of cosmetic overhauls since it’s initial announcement, reveal through the spread of screenshots and video footage made available in the intervening period, but with a title as deeply strategic as this one has to winder just... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Sonic the Fighters
Posted on 28 December, 2012 | No CommentsThe third title in SEGA’s first sweep of the Model 2 arcade re-releases for modern digital platforms, Sonic the Fighters is perhaps the most curious of all. Not because of its popularity (being a relatively minor release in both arcade and home console editions) nor... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Fighting Vipers
Posted on 26 December, 2012 | No CommentsThe second of three of SEGA’s Model 2 arcade beat-‘em-ups released in the 90’s that have recently found a home on modern console digital distribution services, Fighting Vipers is perhaps one of SEGA’s least popular intellectual properties (IP). Not in terms of fandom, but in... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Black Knight Sword
Posted on 25 December, 2012 | No CommentsThe latest title from Grasshopper Manufacture has received very little attention in the run up to release. Indeed, for a developer that is widely considered to be one of the most consistently innovative of all those working on current-generation consoles, Black Knight Sword has been... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Virtua Fighter 2
Posted on 24 December, 2012 | No CommentsOriginally released in 1994, Virtua Fighter 2 was considered a remodelling of the original Virtua Fighter to make use of the new hardware available at the time (Model 2 arcade boards) as opposed to a fully fledged sequel. It was the then-definitive version of SEGA’s... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: SEGA Vintage Collection: ToeJam & Earl
Posted on 8 November, 2012 | No CommentsThe tales of ToeJam & Earl’s immense misfortune at the hands of a rogue hedgehog stretch far-and-wide, with many gamers well versed in the could-have-beens for SEGA one-time leading light. However, that the impost on ToeJam & Earl changed from ‘defining’ to ‘also ran’ is... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Pool Nation
Posted on 31 October, 2012 | No CommentsA debut title from new UK studio Cherry Pop, Pool Nation is an interesting choice of product to deliver as your as a first impression. While a virtualisation of pool may not strike everybody as a ‘must have’ title in the same way as a... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Serious Sam 3: BFE
Posted on 29 October, 2012 | No CommentsHaving made its PC debut last year, Serious Sam 3: BFE is already widely known to be an intense action first-person shooter (FPS). A balls-to-the-wall affair unlike that which we commonly see in today’s marketplace. In its heyday Serious Sam was a franchise born of... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Zombie Driver HD
Posted on 28 October, 2012 | No CommentsExor Studios is not the most well known development studio, but this is mainly due to the outfit’s relative youth. With a handful of popular casual videogames under their belt, Zombie Driver HD is their first attempt at a console release. While it may not... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Happy Wars
Posted on 21 October, 2012 | No CommentsDespite the outward appearance that Microsoft Studios is reluctant to support free-to-play videogames on Xbox 360 the publisher has been just as quick to trial the new venture as Sony Computer Entertainment. Whereas the PlayStation 3’s DUST 514’s perpetual beta continues forth, Microsoft Studios has... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Naughty Bear: Panic in Paradise
Posted on 10 October, 2012 | No CommentsReleased in 2010, the original Naughty Bear was unfairly criticised by many. While it’s true that the experience was a somewhat bug ridden affair it remained a hugely enjoyable high-score romp akin to a Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater videogame, a facet that many impatient gamers... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Realms of Ancient War
Posted on 10 October, 2012 | No CommentsThe latest digital release from Focus Home Interactive sees the understated Realms of Ancient War released on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. A new title from Wizarbox, a studio which itself is somewhat understated, Realms of Ancient War is an original production that aims... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit
Posted on 2 October, 2012 | No CommentsDespite being promoted by one of the biggest names ever seen in the videogames industry (despite being a far less imposing force than the company once was), Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit hasn’t received much attention in the run-up to its launch as... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: NiGHTS Into Dreams…
Posted on 2 October, 2012 | No CommentsThe latest of SEGA’s continuing stream of modern revisions of classic videogames brings us to another cult classic, a Sonic Team spin-off that is a legend unto itself, thanks to the unique controller the publisher offered alongside special editions of the product. A misjudged re-launch... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Jet Set Radio
Posted on 21 September, 2012 | No CommentsJet Set Radio originally launched on SEGA’s ill-fated Dreamcast console to overwhelming critical acclaim. Considered one of the console’s true gems, a cult classic title that received a Game Boy Advance rendition and a sequel on the original Xbox, it’s been ten years since SEGA... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Mark of the Ninja
Posted on 19 September, 2012 | No CommentsFor a relatively young company, Klei Entertainment has already developed an impressive catalogue of videogame titles that the core gaming demographic have been keen to adopt. Specialists in developing for digital distribution services, Klei Entertainment’s greatest success lies in their extraordinary ability to make every... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Dogfight 1942
Posted on 5 September, 2012 | No CommentsCity Interactive’s Dogfight 1942 is creeping onto the Xbox LIVE Arcade later today with far less attention than many of its peers. Whether it’s because of the less commonly critiqued publisher, the uninspired title or simply the subject matter not being to everyone’s tastes, overlooking... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Rock Band Blitz
Posted on 4 September, 2012 | No CommentsWhile Electronic Arts may have lost confidence in the Rock Band franchise, developer Harmonix certainly hasn’t; using it to launch a brand new virtual platform is a strikingly bold move. The recently released Rock Band Blitz functions less like a traditional Rock Band videogame and... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: The Expendables 2 Videogame
Posted on 23 August, 2012 | No CommentsAs a motion-picture franchise The Expendables lends itself to videogame adaptation more than most: enter the guise of a 1990’s action hero and blow stuff up. It’s such a simple premise that it’s hard to believe it’s taken two bug screen instalments for a publisher... -
Electronic Theatre In-depth Review: Trials Evolution
Posted on 15 August, 2012 | No CommentsThe launch of Trials Evolution earlier this month was met with a great deal of anticipation. The follow-up to one of the most talked about Xbox LIVE Arcade releases ever, brought to market along with Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition as one of the highlights of...
