Drakengard 2, Sony Playstation

Drakengard 2 is a role-playing action game featuring knights and dragons that builds on the scenario of the original Drakengard title, brought to us by the role-playing geniuses at Japanese uber-publisher, Square Enix (they of Final Fantasy fame). Drakengard 2 was released in Japan last June and became an immediate success, topping the Japanese sales charts and selling more than 100,000 copies in its first week of release. So it is bound to be a hit with The game's storyline is that it has been more than 18 years since the world-shattering events of the original Drakengard game, and the Union has once again appeared, in the guise of a group known as the Knights of the Seal. It appears that the world has found peace, but it is a deceptive peace. Behind the scenes, thousands of powerless people are trampled in the name of the evil Seal. In the game you play the young hero Nowe, a man raised by a dragon and taken in by the Knights of the Seal. Nowe has flown the skies on his dragon mount, his sword drawn, all in the name of the Order. Your somewhat unusual upbringing and skills as a swordsman have earned you something of a reputation amongst your fellow knights. Nowe's destiny changes forever when you meet a certain young woman. Manah has chosen to protect the world by making the world itself her enemy. Together, Manah and Nowe join forces to take on the Knights of the Seal and their legions of warriors in a quest for a true peace.

WWE Crush Hour
This game caught us out. When WWE Crush Hour was first mooted, we naturally assumed THQ had another wrestle-em-up on the way. But not this time. In a strange turn of events, Crush Hour heads in the direction of Twisted Metal and Monster Jam for the ultimate mechanical brawl featuring the WWE's greatest wrestlers. Before players can get into the game proper, they must first select both a character ...

Chaos Legion
Every now and then, a developer releases a title that seems to just sneak up on an industry normally preoccupied with racing games and incessant movie tie-ins. This is one of those times. On this occasion, we look at Capcom's Chaos Legion for PS2. Many have heard of it, but it's a bizarre title and some will know little about it. Let us shed some light on Capcom's latest venture. Chaos Legion is a...

Two turn-based (and preferably two-player) titles bundled together - proof, if we really needed it, that pigs and worms can live at close quarters in peace and...uh-oh, hang on a minute!

Choose your battalion of worms and it's forwards to victory, or otherwise, set against the most bizarre landscapes, and...
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
There really isn't any point in us trying to disguise how excited we are about the imminent release of the new Wallace and Gromit film. We've tried to ignore as much of the hype as we could in the run up to the release of the new Aardman Animations masterpiece, and we're hoping that the marrow-thieving Were-Rabbit is as worthy an adversary as the sinister 'chicken', Feathers McGraw. We're bursting...
The Matrix: Path of Neo
The Matrix. For many of the more nerdily inclined among us it was the biggest thing since Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Retailers of tight black t-shirts around the world rejoiced, and makers of long leather trenchcoats and many-buckled boots were no less jubilant. They weren't the only happy ones though, as videogame publishers everywhere took no time to notice that the hit film's imaginative univers...
