Darren Edwards

I have been playing games since a very early age, thanks to my Dad's encouragement. I've been an Xbox gamer since the very beginning, the Master Chief is to thank for that. I'm also a big Nintendo geek, and my other half is a PlayStation nut. I'll play pretty much anything in any genre (although FIFA and COD maybe pushing it).

007 First Light Review 

007 First Light is a triumph. It has a legitimate claim to the best James Bond game ever, managing to reboot the series whilst cherishing what makes it so special. It’s the start of a new era for Bond, which will leave you shaken, not stirred.

Labyrinthine Review 

If Labyrinthine’s main aim is to scare, it’s mission accomplished.

Mamorukun ReCurse! Review

Mamorukun ReCurse! is a solid shooter with plenty of charm appeal thanks to its Japanese heritage. Although it’s not the best example of the genre, it is very appealing to have the opportunity to play this cult arcade hit.

Platypus Reclayed Review

Platypus Reclayed really is impressive on every front. Far from being style over substance, it’s an immensely satisfying, yet challenging, shoot 'em up experience.

Games, games and more games. That’s what Gareth, Richard and Darren have on the agenda for Episode 218 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast.

ZOE Begone! Review 

ZOE Begone! is a wonderfully created but brutally difficult SHMUP, that despite looking cute and cuddly, will challenge even the most adept players.

Candylands Journey Review

Candylands Journey is a solid, plucky platformer which does enough to keep your interest, even if you’ve seen it all before.

Metal Eden Review

Metal Eden may have clear inspiration, but emerges as an enjoyable adventure in its own right which unfolds at a breakneck pace.

Inspector Waffles Early Days Review

Inspector Waffles Early Days is a short, sweet love letter to a different era of gaming. Perhaps as a result of aiming to be wholly true to the time, it also comes with familiar limitations.

Halo: Broken Circle – Book Review

Despite Halo: Broken Circle being a stand alone story, John Shirley ties the events of this book to the video games sometimes subtly, but skilfully throughout.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants Review

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle: The Order of Giants is bittersweet. Despite getting almost everything right, as did the base game, it’s hard not to feel short changed by the time the credits roll. Let’s pray Indy’s not about to hang his whip up anytime soon.

Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids Review

You may be tempted to look the other way but don’t, because underneath the somewhat cheesy exterior of Chip ‘n Clawz vs. The Brainioids is a highly entertaining and accessible strategy action hybrid.

Beetle Shock Review

Beetle Shock is a cheap platforming workout that’s unlikely to disappoint. We appreciate its commitment to ground-pounding as a singular game mechanic, even if it doesn’t keep the attention for a full game. You might want an icepack for the buttocks.

Bubsy 4D Review

Only time will tell if Bubsy manages to capitalize on Bubsy 4D, but it’s a solid entry for a franchise that has struggled to make it in the 3D space.
