GoldenEye 007 for N64 is fondly remembered by many gamers, but its chunky graphics do it no favours in 2005. Fans rejoice, then, that a talented team of volunteers is working on a mod version for Half Life 2, aptly named GoldenEye: Source.

Checked out the single-player demo of F.E.A.R. ? We've been playing it all weekend - have a read of our thoughts on the single player experience, and our first benchmarks. We test the game on a range of cards from a 5900XT up to a 7800GTX.

We try out Bet on Soldier, a new FPS that supports Shader Model 3 and the Ageia PhysX PPU. It sports a funky new gameplay mechanic based around betting, but is it any good? We give you our initial impressions of the game based on early code.

If you haven't seen the sequel to one of the most original games ever, you're missing out. Black & White is back with improved gameplay and improved graphics. We have some new screenshots inside, as well as some info on the new gameplay features.

The Chronicles of Narnia, a much-loved piece of classic literature, is soon to become a spangly Disney live-action movie. We talk to Traveller's Tales, developers of the PC game tie-in (and the sublime Lego Star Wars) about their work on the graphics engine for the game.

High Dynamic Range rendering, or HDR, is the latest must-have graphics feature. Valve's Doug Lombardi talks to us about HDR and Half Life 2: Lost Coast. There's plenty of exclusive eye-candy too!

We take a First Look at NCSoft's MMOG for rev-heads: Auto Assault, where Mad Max meets Everquest.
