The humans have managed to push the Locust back and now it's time for the final charge into the enemy hive to end the war once and for all. It's a desperate attack on the Hive, a mission that aims to kill the Locust Queen and save the human race. Sound a little like a Hollywood movie? Make no mistake: Epic have gone out of their way to produce, quite literally, an epic action film in a video game. So sit back and…
It hasn't been a good time for Australian basketball. Turnouts have been down thanks to aggressive marketing campaigns from the football codes, and funds are running dry with the Sydney Kings dying last year (and being renamed into the Sydney Spirit, which sounds like a netball team).

If PopCap didn't exist; if ridiculously, insanely addictive games like Bejeweled and Peggle didn't exist, the whole world would get more done. Thanks to PopCap, office life has changed forever. Some of my work colleagues – myself…
Golden Axe: Beast Rider is a remake of SEGA's side-scrolling beat'em'up classic Golden Axe in 1989. It's also an unofficial remake of God Of War, because Golden Axe tries to rip off God Of War's serial-killer-in-third-person brand of gameplay. The difference is God Of War is fun. While God Of War has you butchering through hundreds of enemies, experiencing gigantic, colourful environments and a combat system that…
