Struggling for a PC FPS for a 12 year old
Hi, My son is getting a laptop for his birthday soon but I feel a bit guilty as he really needs it mostly for school work so not so much of a fun present. It would soften the guilt a bit if I could load it with some good games, I already put some freebie downloads on and bought Warcraft 3 which is loaded OK. I am now…

Looking for Last Guardians fans
This game is aweeeeeeeeeesome! Never played an action game like this one on phones before. The graphic is 3D and good, sound effect is good, the fight scene is good...I hate to say this but have to admit that everything IS good. My only complain is that the four classes are so limited options to choose from, new class will…
Can someone explain to me what the point of Minecraft is?
Can someone explain to me what the point of Minecraft is? I've seen videos of it online and it just looks like you build environments and walk around. Is that it? It also looks like it's from the early 90s. A retro thing or just rubbish? Or am I missing the point?

Disney infinity 2 query
Hi all We have the infinity for PS3 and of course as it gets closer to christmas the kids have noticed the 2.0 and Marvel. If I get the digital down load onto my ps3 will the new characters work on the old base? If so this will be more cost effective than getting another starter pack many thanks

Which console PS4 or Xbox One?

More women now play video games than men...
A study published by the Internet Advertising Bureau UK yesterday states that for the first time, women are the more dominant players in the UK gaming industry. But what do you think? The study claims that the shift has been driven by 25-44 year old women downloading trivia and puzzle apps, so it doesn't represent the…

turn based games have taken over the fantasy genre?
I'm browsing steam after a friend recommended it to me, have to say huge opportunities for massive bargains, but what i want to talk about is modern fantasy rpg's.

Football Manager 15
I have just checked out the newest 30 min video released by SA Games about FM15. So far I am quite impressed, the layout looks a lot more clean which I felt was a bit all over the place in FM14. I particularly like the feature they have included when setting up your manager. You can choose to be a tracksuit type or a…

New 3DS is it worth importing one
I love the 3DS but it is a problem holding it still or you lose the 3D. The new one sounds like it has fixed this and it sounds very powerful. It is released in Japan in a few weeks, no word on release in the rest of the world yet, some are saying 2015 as Nintendo usually take a long time. Is it worth pre ordering one and…
