Reviews and stuff

Guns, swearing, footy, fantasy and strategy - today's reviews laugh at the calls for gaming to broaden its appeal. I covered the surprisingly good FIFA '07 and can see myself, for the first time ever, actually playing a FIFA game after review. Which is more than can be said for Scarface. Tony Montana's game gets a positive review but I personally thought is was horribly average - does the world really need another GTA clone? The other review is Stronghold: Legends, the apparently decent German RTS (real time strategy) game. Personally I wouldn't touch a German RTS game if it was the only game installed on the only PC left in the world. But that's just me. Elsewhere Aleks get social in WoW.
