The original game was an amazing achievement, a terrifying adventure and added an incredibly fun to use term to my vocabulary: strategic dismemberment. So how do you perfect an idea that’s already pretty damn close to flawless already? You crank up the action, polish the controls and look at every great idea the original game… Read More
I absolutely love the idea of killing zombies — as well as assorted mutated bugs and aliens — with music. I’m one of roughly five unfortunate souls who never really got into the music genre, mostly because I’m awful at games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band, but the few times I did pick up… Read More
Due to my fast lifestyle of plowing models, doing mountains of cocaine, breaking the speed limit, beating and cheating on my non existent wife, and hanging out with tons of celebrities, I can’t play all the video games as fast and as much as I would like. Hence the late review.
In the past this series hasn’t had much luck when it comes to its forays into the realm of 3D gaming. This inability to produce a decent game not of the side-scrolling variety led some among the gaming community to label it a curse, but lucky for us Lords of Shadow has taken that curse,… Read More
Saying Flesh and Blood is “more Saw” isn’t necessarily a bad thing, particularly if you’re a fan of the franchise. What I mean by saying this is the game doesn’t aim to innovate or even improve much over its predecessor, instead its goal is to make you do unspeakable things in the most brutal way… Read More
Dead Space: Ignition is out and it would very much like to get you hyped and excited for the upcoming Dead Space 2. Ignition is an interactive comic that offers four unique endings depending on the decisions you make along the way, and once you complete it you’re rewarded with content Isaac can use in… Read More
Right before his debut in the long awaited Sonic 4, the blue hedgehog is returning in a big bad way (emphasis on bad) in the recently re-released Sonic Adventure for the XBLA and PSN.
Left 4 Dead fans rejoice! The long awaited dual compatible DLC for Left 4 Dead and its sequel went live Tuesday for the PC and Mac, and after a brief delay became available for all the hungry xbox 360 gamers out there.
My knowledge of mafia culture is limited to what I’ve seen in movies, which means car chases, cursing, and lots of shooting are things I expect a game like Mafia 2 to have in abundance. Thankfully, at least in those departments and specifically the second, this game does not disappoint.
It’s tough following the excellent games the annual Summer of Arcade gave us this year. This time around there was something for everyone; If you have a friend there’s the fantastic cooperative Lara Croft title, if you have more than one friend there’s Monday Night Combat, or if you like to go it alone there’s… Read More
I’m not a huge fan of the Transformers franchise (blasphemous, I know), primarily because I’m too young to have any nostalgic feelings towards the cartoons and despite some fantastic special effects, the films never managed to keep my attention.
Singularity starts off by tossing you into the broken remnants of a once glorious scientific community secluded from the rest of the world with dystopian ideas and crazy technology that eventually led to said community’s demise. Oh, and there’s also mutated enemies that were once human, a scattering of audio logs that give you pieces… Read More
So I’m completely honest here, you should know I’m not terribly fond of racing games. You see, I’m a competitive person, and I’m no less than awful at racing games. Always have been, probably always will be. Don’t feel bad for me, it’s just my fate.
Limbo wasn’t on my radar until I was exposed to a trailer for the game a few months back. I definitely have more of an eclectic taste in games, something that’s essentially a must have quality when you write about them, but I definitely enjoy the lonely, atmospheric games more than others. Sure I can… Read More
Welcome to our brand spanking new series, something I affectionately refer to as The Ultimate Gamer Lounge. Stay a while, relax, take off your shoes and loosen your tie, should you wear one, so you can make sure you’re prepared to really engulf yourself in this new feature. Now, it’s common knowledge that everyone wants… Read More
It’s been a long time coming but Alan Wake is finally here and now all it has to do is live up to the tons of hype that has steadily built up around it since the game was announced nearly five years ago. Great horror games are few and far between, so only a few… Read More
Stealth gaming has never been my strong suit; I find my longtime strategy to run in guns blazing ineffective in games like these. It’s because of this weakness that I’ve never laid a hand on the Splinter Cell franchise; I like causing chaos and having everybody know that I am the one behind the destruction…. Read More
This is the type of game that is actually very difficult to review. It’s obvious that a lot of love and clever ideas went into the game, and if you like it than you could end up investing 20+ hours in the game with all its side quests. Unfortunately this game seems to have missed… Read More
Adam and I ventured back into the world of Resident Evil for the RE5 DLC, Desperate Escape. Josh and Jill go up the hill, try to escape an onslaught of Majini, they fetch a pail of water….or, no that’s not right. Getting back on track, head past the break to find out just what we… Read More
I’ve decided I’m not very good at writing reviews. I don’t use big words. I don’t like using big words. I really hate when you can tell someone used a big word in place of a much simpler small word of the same meaning, just so they can sound smarter. I also like to say… Read More
The creative minds behind arguably one of the best horror games of this console generation have decided to escape the black void of deep space in favor of a trip to Hell. Dante’s Inferno follows Dante on a mission to save his wife from the confines of Hell as described by Dante Alighieri in his… Read More
Adam and I have joined forced once again for another co-op review. Today we delve into the wonderous world that is Resident Evil 5. We got a chance to play the new DLC “Lost In Nightmares”, over and over and over again. So head on past the break and see what we thought.
The rest of the year has some serious competition with the handful of amazing games we’ve already received only two months into 2010. Without a doubt, one of the most anticipated releases this year is BioShock 2, so does it live up to the hype? Or more importantly, our expectations? We’ve just returned from our… Read More
About 10:30pm. Dark out obviously. Few friends over, roommates home. I tell everyone I’m going to play The Grudge game. They all seem fairly interested and excited to see how it’s going to be. Everyone gathers around the t.v., we turn the lights off to set the mood, and start. The game starts out in… Read More
