    Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes 29/10/2009 14:55:00

    The Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated TV show has proven to be a huge hit since it debuted last year. Despite the erratic level of quality when it came to the individual episodes in season one, it has been a massive ratings success, particularly for boys aged six to eleven. There was little doubt that they'd attempt to cash-in on the popularity of the franchise but it's disappointing to see how little effort was put into making Republic Heroes actually enjoyable.

    AMD announces Open Physics Initiative 01/10/2009 06:52:00

    A press release from AMD today announces the development of an Open Physics Initiative, together with Pixelux Entertainment. Pixelux is the developer of the Digital Molecular Matter (DMM) physics system used first in LucasArts' Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

    Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings 10/06/2009 15:20:00

    If I had to rank all of the Indiana Jones adventures in order of best to worst, I'd put The Last Crusade at the top -- that's an easy decision. The second best Indy adventure is just as easy to name: it's LucasArt's fantastic point-and-click adventure title, The Fate of Atlantis.
