Comment on Xbox 360 Review: WWE ’12 by Simon Rowson

I’d definitely recommend a rental first, or check out a friend’s copy if you can.

I had a lot of fun playing the single match modes and toying around with the custom character tools, and WWE fans might find the issues easier to overlook, but the larger game is too frustrating and problematic to recommend buying without trying it first.

Comment on TV Review: Skins: Series 5, Episode 8 – ‘Everyone’ by Al Russell

It’s a given that American shows are swill. They take anything remotely edgy or intellectual and strip it of any value. But we expect more from the Skins writers at this point. There was a charm and believability to the season one crew, even in the face of some pretty over the top melodrama. The characters felt like people we all knew at some point in our lives. The second generation slipped a little, in my opinion, but they had Cook, so I still hung around. This 5th season though, …SNORE. Sorry, but I just couldn’t get connected to these people. The entire season felt rushed and unfinished somehow. Great review. Said what I couldn’t quite put into words.

sounds a bit arcadey to me why o why can’t thq re re release space hulk vengeance of the blood angles, fantastic pure strategy given a graphical face lift on the next generation hardware would knock spots of this. the gene stealers MUST RETURN o and for those who don’t know what the gene stealers are PLEASE google it.

I’m going to have to disagree, personally I really enjoyed this series of skins. It gives a realistic view on peoples lives and how fucked up things can get. But I don’t think Matty and Franky should get together and hopefully they won’t… It would be nice to see another, (naomily) I thought it was really sweet, especially Naomi’s speech at the end of series 4.So let’s hope they bring in a ‘Minky’

That’s a shame. I myself am a huge fan of Le Tour de France I was hoping this game would be decent but it seems it has a lot of shortcomings. Hopefully a good version will come out soon.
