Retro-Review 001: Master of Orion 2

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

retroreview.gifBox Art from 1996 rocked.

 

The Retro-Review is something I’m going to get done more on BEAT.British, we all love new games but let us not forget the games that brought us to where we are today (even the bad ones) and so I bring the first Retro-Review:

This is probably one of my favorite games of all time. It’s nothing amazing to look at, the graphics are from way back when and the sound is almost 16 bit. But when I comes to retro PC oldies you can’t beat Master of Orion 2. So I’m going to review it.

BEAT.British 015: Getting Paid to speak… [03/02/2008]

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

Hey hey!

So another week and a podcast awaits you all. This week we talk about Burnout and give it a romping Review, we talk briefly about the writers strike, Dip into voice overs in games and their prospective price tag and we talk about the ‘best’ game on the ps3; apparently . Call of Duty isn’t floating our boats, at the moment and we all suspect that it has something to do with the same maps being played OVER and OVER.

Special Guest: Nadia!

Our hearts go out to Joe and his Bricked Xbox360, yes he has received the three red rings just after this was recorded. 2 weeks of poo. Sorry Joe…
