Grand Slam Tennis Review (WII)
Not quite the Smash it should have been Obviously with Wimbledon having been on in the last few months, it was a given that a few tennis games would be released. But what was surprising was the fact that for the first time EA decided to add their name to the list of tennis games …
Fight Night Round 4 Review (360)
Release your inner maniac EA’s latest offering of boxing goodness is of course Fight Night Round 4.

FIFA 08 Review (WII)
EA shoots…and hits the bar To be honest, EA’s FIFA franchise has never been comparable to Konami’s PES.

I do like this game. …
