Originally released in 2010 as an exclusive Xbox Live Arcade title, PC gamers now have the chance to lay their powerful fingers on a little grey gem called Limbo. Also called, stylishly, LIMBO, we are here concerned with the place the Catholic Church thinks doesn’t really exist anymore, where occupants, usually deemed good, had not ... [»]
If you’ve been longing for a return of the games of yesteryear, complete with massive single levels and collectible weapons and gadgets that mix intuitive gameplay with challenging stages and fight sequences, then ITSP may just be the game that you’re looking for. But can it match the advances made in today's arcade titles, or does its old school flavour drag this ambitious ... [»]
The Call of Juarez franchise has always been a decidedly above average affair, taking players back in time to the old west, and revolving around a tale of family bonds and legendary treasure. While the previous title, bound in blood, didn’t exactly set the charts on fire, it was still a solid game with a strong storyline.
Now, The Cartel takes players away from ... [»]
The first Fruit Ninja review that I’ve read has left me excited and disappointed at the same time. I’ve had Fruit Ninja on my phone for ages now and it’s easily one of the simplest and yet most entertaining titles available on phones at the moment but even ... [»]
One of my all time favourite iPhone titles,Cut the Rope, has had its sequel released towards the end of last week and I’ve been ignoring friends and family all weekend to get this review to you this morning.
Well that was the plan but it didn’t end up that way, take a ... [»]

Commander started as EDH, Elder Dragon Highlander, and is a format that wasn’t made or endorsed by Wizards of the Coast, even though they were aware of it. Now, Magic: The Gathering has released five pre-constructed decks, all in wedge colours (two paired colours and one opposing colour). This official endorsement of EDH into the MTG fold is an awesome idea, especially for those who haven’t been playing for long periods of time, ... [»]

Most of us remember that when the original F.E.A.R. game came out, it was one of those gaming yardsticks. If you could run it, a hush would follow your confirmation of this fact. F.E.A.R. was considered beautiful, evocative and enthralling. Who didn’t love being able to see your character’s feet and hands on ladders – limbs most FPS titles refuse to grant protagonists (I’m looking at you, ... [»]
Its not often that we get to play God lately in our games, and even rarer, that we actually get to feel like one. From Dust has players assume the role of the breath, a force of nature that can be either malevolent or noble to its worshippers, as they struggle to survive in the hostile environment of this strange world, and regain some ...

So here I was about to play a game completely out of genre for me, to say I am comfortable with shooters is about the same as saying ice-cubes are comfortable with bonfires, but wow was I surprised. I’m going to ruin the suspense of the review right in the first paragraph: Red Faction Armageddon is an awesome game.
In RFA you play ... [»]

As is known by the traffic department and my neighbour’s cat (now deceased), I’m not a good driver. Handling tons of metal that travels over a hundred kilometres an hour is something that terrifies me. Driving games provide me an opportunity to test these driving “skills”, with the only major consequence being my pride (assuming I have any).
Many racing ... [»]
The Last Harry Potter game, much like the movie it was based on, really, was a fairly dull affair. Slow and languid, both set out to increase suspense and tension for the final chapter. Where the movie succeeded, the game ... [»]

The Sims Medieval is a stand-alone game, though it may well spawn its own line of expansion packs. For veteran Sims players like myself, it’s a breath of fresh air. The focus here is not on micromanaging every moment of your Sim’s existence and sending them to the loo every few minutes. Instead, it mixes in a few elements of roleplaying to make things a bit more interesting.

The Nintendo 3DS has hadn’t the best launch so far to date for a new console. Its a great piece of hardware that stands alone, fending for itself with a rather meagre assortment of games. But can Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D finally give the fledgling console something to boast about?
If you’ve never played The Mercenaries before, here’s a quick recap. Essentially a mini-game that comes with ... [»]
Nearly 14 years ago, Nintendo released a game that was hailed – by critics and gamers alike – as not just a great game, but one of the best of all time. Truly revolutionary, the enduring classic introduced many elements that are now so commonplace – like a working 3D camera and a lock-on targeting system – that they’re taken for granted. It is of course, The Legend of ... [»]
It’s not often that we review hardware here on Lazygamer but at the same time it’s not often that we’re able go get our hands on a piece of hardware that is utterly dedicated to gaming so when I was offered the chance to review the ASUS G53 I couldn’t really say no now could I.
The first thing I noticed when unpacking the G53 is its weight, it’s not a complete monster but this isn’t a laptop you ... [»]
