Retro Review: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets – PS2

“If Harry Potter goes back to Hogwarts, he will be in mortal danger.” When these words echoed around the living room, the whole family knew we were in for a long night. Especially if Dad hadn’t Googled how to get past the Avifors Challenge at work today… (this was pre-WiFi era in the Butler household, […]

Retro Review: Banjo-Kazooie

In honour of the looming Christmas holidays let’s look at at Banjo-Kazooie, a game which features a festive themed area, complete with 100 metre tall fir tree and sentient presents. The game follows the quest of a bear (Banjo) and a bird (Kazooie) to rescue Banjo’s sister from the rhyme-obsessed witch Gruntilda. It’s a charming platforming […]

Far Cry 2 and narrative harmony

Twenty hours into my time with Far Cry 2 I had shot, hacked and burnt enough men to fill ten graveyards. I set about scouring the remnants of a freshly waged battlefield with mechanised efficiency, stripping and looting the bullet ridden, charred airstrip of any supplies. The silence was punctuated by agonised screams: a survivor, […]

Ratchet and Clank Review

Nostalgia is a funny thing. Video games that we love, perhaps more than any other medium, can be almost permanently lodged in our minds; they make up who we are as gamers. So, when we go back to our revisit our absolute favourites that entranced us in previous years, we often find that the very best […]

Sequel-ation: The Batman Arkham Games

The year was 1939: Frank Sinatra had just made his recording debut, a plucky little film known as The Wizard of Oz had just seen its premiere in Hollywood, and through Detective Comics #27 the world was introduced to Batman. Ever since this initial appearance, Batman has featured in everything from movies and TV shows, […]

Let’s Talk About Games

The Witcher 3 was the most talked about game of 2015 according to analyst Thomas Bidaux. After analysing millions of articles The Witcher 3 got 51,098 article mentions, with Fallout 4 coming in a close second with 50,144. It’s worth noting that Fallout didn’t get announced until June, meaning if Fallout was announced in at […]

Playstation: An appreciation

Happy birthday, dear PlayStation! Happy birthday to you!’ I sing, as I place my arm lovingly around my beloved console, ‘Oh PlayStation, my old friend, you’ve grown up so much. Wow, twenty years! Remember all those late night Tekken 3 sessions? Or how about that time I faked being sick so I didn’t have to go […]

Sony’s E3 press conference

Online Editor and Playstation fanatic, Harry Shepherd, gives us his rundown of Sony’s showing at this year’s E3 convention from Los Angeles.  After the typically loud, brash gaming montage we’ve come to expect from E3 press conferences, things got off to an awkward start at Sony’s E3 2015 Experience as Shawn Layden, President and CEO […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
