Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call
Written by Tom Clare in PS2 Game Reviews, Thursday 15 July, 2010
It seemed odd that a Japanese RPG would publicise a minor cameo from Devil May Cry star Dante extensively on its box-art, especially given just how far removed Lucifer’s Call is from the action ... Read More...Crash Tag Team Racing
Written by Tom Clare in PS2 Game Reviews, Friday 2 July, 2010
Crash Bandicoot seemed to be on an all-too-familiar descent from prominence following the departure of its creator Naughty Dog, with the so-so Nitro Kart and lacklustre platformer TwinSanity failing t... Read More...WipEout Pulse
Written by Tom Clare in PS2 Game Reviews, Monday 21 June, 2010
If ever you wanted a textbook example of how not to go about PR, then surely the farcical PS2 release of WipEout Pulse in 2009 is it. Sony’s plan of attack seemed less intent on marketing the ga... Read More...Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10

Ten years into the PS2 lifecycle and it’s heartening to see continued support across the board from EA’s sport franchises, and those loyal to the format will be pleased with the appearance... Read More...Yakuza 2

Written by Tom Clare in PS2 Game Reviews, Monday 8 February, 2010
Atlus’s decision to develop Persona 4 exclusively for the PS2 surprised some, as by the time of the games release in February 2009, the format was entering its ninth year on sale. Lower developm... Read More...Medal Of Honor: Vanguard
Written by Tom Clare in PS2 Game Reviews, Monday 18 January, 2010
Medal of Honor’s fourth and final PS2 outing is a dishearteningly threadbare effort. Vanguard is desperately short on new ideas and content, whilst it’s ageing game engine and misguided em... Read More...Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call
