G Force Review

Mike Anthony | 16:54 UK time, Thursday, 30 July 2009

G-Force2.jpg

Now when a film drops and knocks Harry Potter off the number 1 spot you have to get your head up and look at what's coming on the horizon. G Force The Blockbuster has landed baby! With the GAME!!!!! Throw in some 3D glasses for the Xbox 360 version and next gen gaming really has turned a new road. G-Force is an action-platformer. You play Darwin the leader of G Force with his housefly partner Mooch. Now the object of the game is to stop the powers that be namely an evil Multi Billionaire from taking over the world by using anything electrical and turning it evil. (sounds like the Deceptacons are behind this)

Mike Anthony | 09:50 UK time, Thursday, 16 July 2009

I have to admit I am really poor when it comes to taking a picture on my phone. I cringe when I look at them and NEVER put them up on or flyers etc. Some of you have become serious photographers with your phones and we want to know what phone takes the best pictures? We want to see your best pictures. Could be a scenery shot, a profile picture or one of a friend or family member.

LEGO BATTLES REVIEW

Treble T | 17:12 UK time, Friday, 10 July 2009

legobattle2.jpg
Calling all lego fans!!! Command and Conquer has made its way onto the Nintendo DS but its been Legofied thats right those little plastic men are taking over your hand held! So this is your basic strategy game but has all the lego humour added!

If you've never done strategy before you have a "God view"(High in the sky) of the battle field and its your job to send your Lego minions into the fray. You will need to build and repair castles, farms, barracks and various other war apparatus. Make sure you create the right Lego men, trust me builders are no good in a fight and guards men are no good at harvesting food.

MY LONGEST SERVING GADGET HAS BEEN........?

Mike Anthony | 09:50 UK time, Thursday, 9 July 2009

n95.jpg
Now we the Rampage Crew love gadgets and constantly like to review and try out the latest on the market. Some we crave, some we up-grade to and some are just too expensive. What we've realised is for some reason we all seem to go back to the most reliable and favourite gadget. For me (Mike) its been my Technics 1210's (turntables) and my N95. (phone) I can't leave out my Playstation which has been an amazing bit of old/modern kit.

Call of Juarez. (Bound in Blood)

Treble T | 15:05 UK time, Friday, 3 July 2009

callofjuarez.jpg
A first person shooter game with a difference. Its set in the wild wild west. To be honest the difference isn't that great, a couple of special moves that mean once you've proved your skill you can do a "Neo" in the Matrix and do a bullet time thing so you can kill multiple enemies at the same time.

Story mode see's you travelling across the American outback chasing The "Gold of Juarez" no laser guns or sub machine guns here, its purely six shooters and rifles so it means every shot counts. There were quite a few interesting characters like the mad Apache indian and the greedy mexican (Eh Gringo). I do like the fact that you travel by horse back and canoe as opposed to car and plane, but I'm not sure if its enough to make this a stand out game.
