  • Bond reaches a wider audience, I don't think that's a secret at this point. M:I has raised the bar for action (and I don't mean dumb CGI fests like the last few F&F films) since the Ghost Protocol. This is an area where Bond has been sorely l…

  • Given what I can only guess was a reduced budget (those cutscenes), I don't know if they could have opened up any more of the houses. I'm not sure if opening up more would have been a good thing. Without coming up with more contracts (I think the 2 …
  • Hitman: World Of Assassination Whittleton Creek. This is the map I had been waiting for during Hitman 2. Whether intentional or not, it brings to mind A New Life, from Hitman: Blood Money, and that's a good thing. It isn't the most exotic map, but …
  • I could do with a little less Benji too. As a field agent of X years, he should be past all the rookie mistakes, especially those around technology (he was the 'tech guy' in MI3!). I have been quietly thinking to myself that Dead Reckoning can'…

  • Though it's a bit cheap, I do like how you can get the rival hitman to make the hit for you.
  • Hitman: World Of Assassination Mumbai. No complaints about the size of the map, but it feels a bit bland. On the upside, I know what's coming next, oh yes.... ;) 1. Paris - 'The Showstopper' (Hitman) 2. Sapienza - 'World Of Tomorrow' (Hitman) …
  • Have these criminals never learned, you can't trap Liam Neeson in any mode of transport. That said, I would watch an action thriller with Neeson in dinghy. And i'll watch this too.

  • No matter how much time we have with them, it's never enough. I had to have my dog put to sleep back in late 2021. After my parents passed away, he was never the same. From that point, on, over the next year and a few months, his health declined.

  • I never played the original XIII (next time I am in my local independent game shop, i'll see if they have it in stock for PS2). I have almost bought the remake on a number of occasions. But all of the negative reviews put me off. Maybe when it falls…
  • I only have those issues starting out. Once I have committed the layout of the map to memory, it's not a problem. I have finally decided to try and go for the plat on Yakuza 0 (I might have said this before, but this time it's happening). I rec…
