... from the industry's most credible critics

GameSpot 8.0 Crysis (PS3)

Crysis comes to consoles, and four years after its release on the PC, there's still nothing quite like it.

Monday, October 10, 2011

IGN 8.0 Crysis (PS3)

Maximize your options.

Tuesday, October 04, 2011

GamePro 8.0 Rage (PS3)

Surprisingly fun vehicle combat and a colorful post-apocalypse solidly places Rage in the upper tier of this year's first-person shooters, technical issues aside.

GiantBomb 8.0 Rage (PS3)

Rage won't set new standards for game design, but if you want to drive and shoot in an incredible-looking wasteland, this is your game.

Monday, October 03, 2011

GameSpot 8.0 Rage (PS3)

Rage creates an engrossing world full of dazzling detail and entertaining shooter action.

1UP 6.9 Rage (PS3)

Despite the painfully unoriginal setting, Rage saves itself simply by being an enjoyable FPS from a developer that knows their way around them.

Splitkick 7.0 Resistance 3 (PS3)

I have had mixed experiences with the Resistance series. Like a lot of people in the UK, I picked up the first entry as part of a bundle designed to push the PlayStation 3 while it struggled to gain traction. I had a lot of fun with the game; it was a decent first person shooter with a reasonable hook. Unfortunately, the second game was an infuriating trial, one that seemed to lean far too heavily on the Ratchet & Clank series’ gameplay design without any of the fun. With that experience under my belt, I entered into Resistance 3 hesitantly.

Tuesday, September 06, 2011

GamePro 9.0 Resistance 3 (PS3)

Don't resist the urge to experience the best game in the Resistance series to date.

GameSpot 8.5 Resistance 3 (PS3)

Tightly balanced action and a superb array of guns make Resistance 3 a blast.

GiantBomb 8.0 Resistance 3 (PS3)

Insomniac does a terrific job of making you forget about Resistance 2 with a sad, beautiful journey through the apocalypse.

1UP 7.7 Resistance 3 (PS3)

While Resistance 3 clearly steps forward as a improvement to the series, it's still not quite a great game overall.

Game Informer 7.0 Resistance 3 (PS3)

Insomniac’s Third Installment Continues The Downward Trend

Monday, September 05, 2011

IGN 9.0 Resistance 3 (PS3)

An intense shooter experience that proves hard to resist.

Wednesday, August 03, 2011

IGN 6.0 Section 8: Prejudice (PS3)

Landing With a Thud.

Wednesday, July 27, 2011

GameSpot 7.5 Section 8: Prejudice (PS3)

Section 8: Prejudice explores well-worn territory, but a smart campaign and volatile competitive mode make this shooter rise above its generic aesthetic.
