Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune was one of the best games on the PS3 at its time of release. Personally, I still play it today and have got the platinum trophy. One question that has always been asked after the sequel was announced was: Will Uncharted 2 have multiplayer?

While the idea of being able to demolish everything in one’s path is, undoubtedly, a tantalising prospect for an excitable gamer like myself, the way in which it is implemented within a game will always go a long way to either making or breaking the overall experience. THQ’s Red Faction: Guerrilla is a title that boasts such capabilities in abundance, but the question is: Can it travel beyond what is quickly becoming its main selling point? This demo, treating us to an entire mission’s worth of game play, gives us a fair idea as to what we can expect when the game releases in June.

Back in 2005, in the midst of a stormy Thanksgiving break, I came to a decision.  For weeks I’d seriously contemplated the purchase of a PSP, weighing the appurtenant merits and demerits of such a (for me) hefty expenditure, and in the end I came down on the side of indulgence; practicality and common sense, far less gratifying, were peremptorily shown the door.

For, the handheld’s immediate appeal lay less in its then-meager library than in that same, nigh on irresistible charm to which so many new gadgets lay claim: it was just so damned neat.  I had precious little genuine need for a portable gaming platform, and its lineup back then hadn’t even begun to show the promise that it’s fulfilled in the years since – it was simply that the thing was too cool not to buy.

I was spending the day out of town when I came across a gamestop that I have never been in before.  Being a frugal shopper, I decided to take a gander into their bargain bin.  Hovering over the countless array of Madden and Grand Theft Auto titles I carefully perused the selection until my eyes picked apart every spine and price tag.  As I was getting up to leave I noticed a familiar name and lettering on one of the cases.  Pulling the game out I realized my eyes were not fooling me, and I was holding a copy of Maximo: Ghosts to Glory for a mere $2.99.
