game: Constantine
review | 03/30/05 | Matt James
If somebody catches you in a dark alley and forces you to choose between watching Constantine the movie or playing Constantine the game, pick the flick.

game: Resident Evil 4
review | 01/24/05 | George Holomshek
As so many gamers will tell you, zombies make for good gaming. And the OG zombie shooter is Resident Evil. When it first came out, the RE series was an amazing achievement featuring moody camera angles and truly frightening gameplay. But after three major incarnations, and twice as many spin-offs, it's hard to keep the magic alive. So we were a little nervous about Resident Evil 4, the latest installment of the series. We all huddled in the back shed and then we pushed out one of our new guys, George, to see if the zombies would eat his brain. He got a little munched, but a couple of green herbs fixed him right up, and he managed to come up with an in-depth review. Click the details link for lots more.

game: Doom 3

game: Batman: The Rise of Sin Tzu
review | 12/07/03 | GF! Back Catalogue 10/2004 => 1995
Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu is something of a milestone for fans of the super hero; it marks the first time a Batman character makes his debut in a videogame, as Ubi Soft gives fans some beat-em up action Batman style. But while the Dark Knight fares well against the villain Sin Tzu, he gets a serious beatdown from the arch-nemesis of all videogame comic heroes: The super-villain known as Monotonous Gameplay.
