It seems like sitting at your console is the only way to add some excitement in Formula 1. Mercedes are being dominant with Hamilton looking to cement another driver’s title. For a slight bit of escapism, Codemasters’ yearly series has hit shelves. Finally somebody the chance to overtake with Robert […]

Codemasters have been producing racing games for decades now and it’s fair to say they’ve managed to carve out a reputation as a safe pair of hands. 2015’s DiRT Rally was a foray back into the rugged wilds of rallying without flashbacks and delivering a stern driving challenge. Now a […]

DiRT Rally 2.0 – PS4 Review

It seems like Codemasters have timed it well to release F1 2018 in the middle of the sport’s summer break. Liberty Media might be new to running the sport but the geniuses at play have had the license now for almost a decade. In that time, we’ve seen some great […]

Codemasters upcoming arcade, team-based racer has had an open beta this weekend. I took the opportunity to check out what gets Onrush‘s motor running. Two modes were on offer for the Beta period. Overdrive acts like the main course with teams focusing on destruction to gather points. First to 10,000 […]

Onrush – PS4 Preview

Formula 1 might not be holding my interest like it once did but Codemasters’ treatment of the sport retains a level of curiosity. With some strong visuals and a handling package behind it, can this year’s game surpass last season’s revered effort? Visually, this doesn’t differ much from last season’s […]

F1 2017 – PS4 Review

I’ve been away from this series since the first DiRT but Codemasters’ history with the rallying franchise has seen them venture into every off-road discipline you could muster whilst steadily becoming much more accessible. Whilst I never felt like a huge fan of the Gymkhana diversions, DiRT Rally proved there […]
