No, That's NOT Sexy... At All

I have no idea which part is worse: the fact that Mariah Carey has a new song out, or the fact that a 45 second preview of its video has just been released and it's absolutely hideous. It's a tough choice, but I think I'll go with the second one. You can watch the preview in question below and make up ...

Britney's New Video: Piece of S...omething Good?

Well, I lived to see this day... now I can pretty much die a peaceful death and go to hell quietly, my heart bursting with the joy of having seen a preview of Brit Brit's latest music video.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

Guitar Hero has become a modern rockin' phenomenon just like Woodstock, Rock Am Ring or.... Tenacious D. Even if it's not a band, an event or a new Metallica album, the game is still a media product that can turn into a rocker's hobby or a pop fan's favorite pastime. We're 3 days away from t...

The Simpsons Game

"Woo-hoo!" is probably one of the most familiar lines from the Simpsons TV show together with "Mmm…chocolate…" and of course Homer's trademark "D'oh!". That's why I went "woo-hoo!" when I found out that EA Games are about to release a title featuring the famous Springfield-based characters. Lisa, Marg...

Clive Barker's Jericho

Halloween is coming with its usual October launches of horror movies and games, so it's only obvious that we're bound to see an Xbox 360 title that makes us tremble and start losing sleep over it. It's not Silent Hill, nor is it Resident Evil 5, but it will land on the PC and PS3, delivering a terrifi...

Crash of the Titans

Crash Bandicoot stands for a vivid image from my childhood and one of the characters that rocked my winter afternoons and lazy summer days.

NBA 2K8

I know that we shouldn't judge games that are not out yet, but we can still compare two demos and tons of gameplay videos of the latest basketball sims: NBA Live 08 and NBA 2K8. As with NBA 2K7, the title is a hit and it's a much better choice than NBA Live 08, that failed to impress me so far. The crowd i...

skate

Is there any other skateboarding title out there besides the ones pertaining to the Tony Hawk series?

NBA Live 08

Fresh after some pleasant shock treatment branded NHL 08, I've had the chance to experience some pro-balling action thanks to NBA Live 08. NHL 08 was OK, FIFA 08 promises to be a hit, but let's see how things are on the basketball court... I've got to tell you right from the start that NBA always tend...

It's September already and the weather's getting a bit too cold for football, but if you're an NHL fan you must have heard the good news. That's right!

Fallout 3 Leipzig Demo

Fallout 3 is the best Oblivion mode so far. Wait a minute, that didn't come out right but after seeing the short demo from Bethesda at Leipzig I just couldn't shake the feeling that something is amidst.

Heavenly Sword

It gives me the greatest of joys to be the one and only reviewer to benefit from this great title, well at least its demo version. I may not be the first, but it doesn't matter since the gaming experience that Heavenly Sword provides is a reward in itself. The game is probably the most anticipated PS3 title of ...

It's common knowledge that not everybody can act. But it seems that someone forgot to tell this to Jessica Simpson. So the big-chested singer went on and played the leading part in her very own movie, which is called (and really is nothing more than her own) "Blond Ambition". The movie has been ready for some ti...
