History in Handheld: A Donkey Kong retrospective

Thu, 23 May 2013 11:30:00 GMT

Yes, Donkey Kong has yet to star in his own adventure on the Nintendo 3DS. No, we won't have to wait too long for Nintendo to address that matter. You see, Mario & Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move may well have leapt onto the 3DS eShop a couple of weeks ago, but Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, a 3DS port of the original Nintendo Wii classic, is set to debut tomorrow. Of course, these outings d...

Review: Raa Raa the Noisy Lion: Jingly Jangly Jungle Adventures

Thu, 16 May 2013 11:30:00 GMT

Can I assume that if you are reading this, you, at the very least, have kids? That you are regularly forced to endure the saccharine nonsense of children's TV, and may even be aware of Raa Raa the Noisy Lion? If you don't, I suggest you leave now. Years spent writing reviews has instilled in me an instinct to savage games like Raa Raa the Noisy Lion, in the same way he would - in reality - s...

8 reasons why football video games are better than the real thing

Sat, 11 May 2013 12:00:00 GMT

As you probably already know, the football season in this part of the world is - slowly but surely - drawing to a close for another year. In fact, most Premiership teams have just two games left to play. If - like I - you need a regular football fix during the off-season, then, you have two choices. You can either head over to your local 5-a-side footy centre and compete against similarly 'l...

Zelda fan, eh? Prove it, and win big with Pocket Gamer

Tue, 7 May 2013 13:00:00 GMT

I don't think there's a gamer alive today that isn't familiar with the terms 'Link', 'Rupees', 'Hyrule' from Nintendo's much-loved The Legend of Zelda series. We have our suspicions that some of you reading this right now are bigger Zelda fans than most, mind. So, here's the deal: we want YOU to send us photo evidence (typical decency rules apply here, by the way) that you're the biggest Zel...

History in Handheld: Celebrate Iron Man 3 with a rundown of Shellhead's portable gaming appearances

Fri, 26 Apr 2013 16:00:00 GMT

The many Marvel fans among you will already know that the latest instalment in the hugely popular Iron Man movie franchise has just exploded onto cinema screens around the world. I don't know about you, but I always get the urge to reenact the massive fight scenes at the core of action-packed movies like Iron Man as soon as I exit the cinema. Unfortunately, I can't. Not in the real world, an...
