• DmC gets vintage Dante and other skins as DLC

• CharlieStCloud 22/01/2013

  Gosh ...
  
  ... little things like these 'costumes/skins' would have been an unlockable bonus on Devil May Cry in the PlayStation 2 days, for finishing 'Dante Must Die' mode or something.

• Temple Run 2 review

• CharlieStCloud 21/01/2013

  My issue with 'Temple Run 2' is just how similar it looks and feels to 'Pitfall!', which is actually a much, much better attempt at this sort of game anyway. Reply +9

  See, this is just blooming terrible news ...
  
  ... I know HMV are not the cheapest place to buy films, music albums or games however, it is genuinely the only high street store in which you can happily be able to have a nose around.
  
  Now that is gone.

• Hard Choices

• CharlieStCloud 12/01/2013

  Just reading Phill's (carefully chosen) words about 'The Walking Dead' makes me love the whole series even more than I already do.
  
  Same outcome, but the journey itself, and the choices you have to make along the way, is truly quite unforgettable.

• Chasing Aurora review

• CharlieStCloud 07/12/2012

  My only concern thus far with the Wii U is that whilst I understand developers can gladly set their own prices for their own games, what they are asking for seems to be a fair bit more than what you usually purchase on the XBLA marketplace or the PlayStation 3 equivalent ...
  
  ... £10.79 is not exactly in the 'impulse buy' territory, especially when there are no demos available or an opportunity to 'try before you buy' too. Reply +9
