February has just been an awful month for news.

Whether it be the whole conflict in Egypt, or titles like Mirror’s Edge 2 receiving the boot, it’s been far from a loving month.

One of the more anticipated Ubisoft titles of this year was the high definition remastering of the first three Splinter Cell titles for the PS3, the Splinter Cell Trilogy.

The release date was set at a March release, but online retailer Amazon changed the date this morning to June 21st. Come see why Ubi did this…

OXCGN’s Tron: Evolution Review – Inside The Grid

OXCGN’s Tron: Evolution Review

Inside The Grid ‘Lock’

Tron has always seemed tailor-made for constant video game exploitation After all, the original Disney film from 1982 was created alongside the arcade and home console revolution of the late 70’s/early 80’s, before the industry crashed in 1983.

Apart from an appearance in Kingdom Hearts 2 and a PC-only first person shooter (Tron 2.0) earlier last decade, there hasn’t been much Tron to be seen in the gaming landscape.

As expected, Disney Interactive have jumped right on the release of the new film blockbuster Tron: Legacy and Vancouver development house Propaganda Games have created Tron: Evolution – a prequel of sorts to the movie.

The Grid awaits you . . . . >

OXCGN’s Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood Single Player Review

OXCGN’s Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood Single Player Review

The Liberation of Roma Has Begun…

This console generation has seen a good amount (but not nearly as much as last gen) of new intellectual properties. Undoubtedly, one of the biggest masterstrokes of the last generation (at least for the beginning of the series) was Prince of Persia.

I vividly recall friends conversing with me about it right when the first game, The Sands of Time, came out. Bear in mind, this was in 2003.

The internet was still getting popular in the Southern United States (broadband wasn’t readily available here until late 2006, and wasn’t pushed until late 2007), and the internet in general was nowhere near the point of rivaling print media as it does now.

More of the Brotherhood . . . .

OXCGN’s Enslaved Review: Odyssey To The West

OXCGN’s Enslaved Review: Odyssey to the West

Prince of Pers… I mean… The Jungle

Enslaved: Odyssey To The West is one of those tough games to review. While playing through this platform/adventure game you can constantly see the idea that the developers, Ninja Theory, had behind their vision of an event or gameplay sequence.

But sadly more often than not Enslaved lets you down. It is, however, by no means a bad game.

Enslaved puts you in the shoes of ‘Monkey’ (played by Andy Serkis) a Tarzan like man who grew up alone roaming the wilderness of post apocalyptic Earth.  Skynet… uhh I mean the ‘Mechs‘ rose up and seemingly seized control of Earth, wiping out cities such as New York hundreds of years ago causing most of the cities’ rubble to develop a nice healthy layer of vegetation over it.

It’s an interesting sight and a refreshingly different take on the post-apocalyptic visuals compared with the wastelands you see in games such as Fallout or Terminator.
