		<title>Review: GT Racing: Motor Academy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Game: GT Racing Motor Academy
Platform: iPhone/iPod Touch
Developer: Gameloft
Publisher: Gameloft
In the interest of fairness, it is worth noting that I have never been a fan of driving games. Or perhaps I should say, I've never been a fan of “realistic” driving games. More often than not this genre of game is all about finesse and care, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review: Heavy Rain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Game: Heavy Rain
Format: PS3
Developer: Quantic Dream
Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment

*This review of Heavy Rain does NOT contain any spoilers*

Heavy Rain as swept across the globe! No silly i'm not talking about the weather, i'm talking about Quantic Dream's latest PS3 offering, Heavy Rain, a game which is as impossible to review as it is groundbreaking. It's near impossible to review because not only is it extremely hard to talk about this game without revealing any spoilers (whilst also trying to avoid sounding like a pretentious d*ck) but it's also nigh impossible because well, you could say Heavy Rain isn't really a game at all.]]></description>

		<title>Retro Fix: Pokemon Yellow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1999 was a golden year for handheld gaming. With the truly astronomical success of the original Pokémon titles for the Gameboy the previous year, an enhanced version was released to tie-in elements of the animé series, and Pokémon Yellow was born.
Whilst the popularity of Pokémon has certainly dwindled in recent years, in the Western world [...]]]></description>

		<title>DLC Review: Assassin&#8217;s Creed 2 &#8211; The Battle of Forli &amp; Bonfire of the Vanities</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Game: Assassin's Creed 2: The Battle of Forli &#38;  Bonfire of the Vanities &#38; Secret Locations
Format: 360, PS3
Developer: Ubisoft Montreal
Publisher: Ubisoft

Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed series has a love-hate relationship with me. I was not the only one who to put it quite mildly, didn't like the first instalment (my review of it can be found here: http://rt.nu/_d74sc) as despite it's huge sales, every games critic under the sun gave it the good hard bashing it rightfully deserved. To my surprise then that last year Assassin's Creed 2 released and not only did it garner huge sales, but this time it was good. Very VERY good in fact, a gargantuan improvement on it's predecessor and subsequently it ended up being my personal game of the year (although I was out voted in The Newb Review “Game of The Year” awards, article found here: http://rt.nu/boju5y, by about a quadrillion to one).

So naturally, since I enjoyed the game so much I've decided to splash out on the 2 brand new(ish) DLC packs. Sequence 12, The Battle of Forli and Sequence 13, Bonfire of the Vanities &#38; Secret Locations. Are they worth the money? Well, hold on...I'm getting onto that bit now.
