Soul Calibur V - Review
Originally released in 1997, Namco's Soul Blade was the first game to bring a knife to a fist-fight. Fast forward and Namco is stepping back into the arena with SoulCalibur V on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. And thanks to a few smart tweaks to the series' traditional gameplay, it's arguably the best Calibur to date.

UFC 2010 Undisputed - Review
However, sales of the game were sufficient to not only inspire this sequel, UFC 2010 Undisputed, but also to turn the opinion of EA the giant publisher who had previously turned down the UFC's offer to make an MMA title.

Fight Night Champion - Review
Fight Night Champion is the latest evolution in boxing simulations. But rather than enter the ring with a cocky look of self-assurance, it defends its title with the tenacity of a seasoned veteran. The punching animations look slicker, the ebb and flow of combat is more convincing and the principles of the sport it represents are more naturally realised with a focus on believable stamina and full-body movement.

Dissidia 012[Duodecim]: Final Fantasy - Review
Dissidia 012 is a perfectly pitched follow-up. It offers enough new content to be a worthy purchase for fans of the original while smoothing over the barriers which made it a tad daunting for beginners. It's a series offshoot that entirely different from just about anything else out there

Marvel vs Capcom 3 Fate of Two Worlds - Review
It's been three years since Street Fighter IV revolutionised the world of fighting games with Capcom's startling, distinguished take on the 2D fighter. In its considered execution, taking the flat sprites of the genre's heyday in the early 1990s and turning them into eye-popping 3D models that move with just as much grace and efficiency, a fighting revolution was reborn.
