Lost: Via Domus Xbox 360 Review

I'll start by saying that I am a massive Lost fan so you can imagine my delight when I heard they were making a game set in the same world. Details have been fairly sparse and an unusually short development cycle (less than a year between acquiring the rights and release date) had me worried; […]

CoD4 Veteran Mode: The easy way through the hard bits

This is a quick guide / walkthrough to the three hardest parts of Call Of Duty 4 on Veteran mode. I got quite frustrated with these sections because most of the time you get killed either by grenades or due to the sheer number of enemies that continually respawn, making it more luck than skill […]

How To Play DivX Files Off Your IPod Video On Your Xbox 360

The recent dashboard update means it's now possible to play DivX (and XviD I believe?) files on your Xbox 360. This has to be good news! Well, as I have a memory stick that is only 256MB big and don't really want to be burning discs all the time, I decided to have a little […]

How To Stream AVI (DivX / XviD) To Your Xbox 360 From A PC

This guide will talk you through setting up VLC360 to stream Avi movie files to your Xbox 360. I created this guide using Windows Media Centre on Windows Vista Ultimate but I see no reason why this won't work on Windows Media Centre Edition. Microsoft only currently allow you to play MPEG and WMV video […]

The Darkness Review

The Darkness is one of those games that just slipped under the radar. I knew little of it until it had been released – I assumed by the name it wouldn’t be my sort of game. I was wrong. I only got round to getting this after realising it was created by the same people […]

Colin McRae: DiRT Review

Colin McRae returns for the 6th iteration of the rally-racing franchise with Colin McRae Dirt, available now on the PC and Xbox 360 and in September on the PS3.

I’ve had the Xbox 360 version for the past few weeks, and so this review is based only on the Xbox 360 version, although I’m assuming […]

FAQ: Can I Calibrate My Micrsoft Wireless Racing Wheel?

This question comes up a lot, so I thought I’d answer it.
No, you cannot calibrate the Microsoft Wireless Racing Wheel. As far as I am concerned it is a fundamental flaw with the wheel, and one Microsoft should really sort out. If you have a wheel that does not sit perfectly centered, you are probably […]
