The Expendables 2 Game | Review
There has been a stigma surrounding movie based videos games, excluding the surprise hit Spiderman 2, movie based games tend to suck and bad. I would like to say that The Expendables 2 Game (seriously “game” is in the title) breaks this stigma much like Spiderman 2 did. I would like to say that but […]
Gravity Rush | Review
Have you ever fallen in love with a game, so much so that it stays in your system for weeks at a time? That is the perfect analogy for my obsession with Gravity Rush. I’ve had my hands on the game for more than a few weeks now but honestly it wasn’t laziness that delayed […]
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD | Review
Oh, 1999. You held so much promise. I started my sophomore year of college, got settled in my dorm room, and started the school year off right – in my friend’s room playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater on the Playstation. From that moment on my love affair with the series began, and unlike my move […]
Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (PS Vita) | Review
The Metal Gear Solid franchise is one of the most celebrated in all of gaming, spanning multiple console generations and iterations. Konami returns to the world that Hideo Kojima built with a port of Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 for the PlayStation Vita. Does this port of last year’s HD Collection hold up on […]
PAA: OTRSPODE3 | Review
Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode 3 is the lastest entry in the Penny Arcade-themed video game. At five bucks and available on many platforms, the barrier for entry is rather low. But not everything that is cheap and easy to attain is worth the paltry sum of coins you must […]
Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode II | Review
Sega has been trying for a long, long time to mimic the success of the Sonic games from the Genesis era on the current generation of consoles. Their most recent attempt comes with the Sonic 4 episodes – but that in itself brings up the question of why Sega thinks breaking up a series known […]
Sorcery | Review
When Sony first showed us the Play Station Move at E3 2010 there was one demo that caught everyone’s attention: Sorcery. In this demo we saw just what the Move was capable of. It could detect a variety of motions and even angles, all of these could affect the events in the game. Needless to […]
Gratuitous Tank Battles | Review
Ever wanted to just go down a street and just destroy everything in its path? I know you have, so did I. I would be lying if I didn’t. That’s where Gratuitous Tank Battle comes into play. If you ever wanted to tear down your city streets with mechs, tanks, and other cool military weaponry; […]
Resistance Burning Skies | Review
When the Resistance franchise launched alongside the PlayStation 3 gamers were excited for the brand IP. Now the fifth game in the franchise comes to the recently launched PlayStation Vita. Can Nihilistic Software’s story of a firefighter thrust into an unfortunate situation show us what the Vita can do? We’ve spent a considerable amount of […]
Diablo III | Review
It has been over a decade since heroes have been summoned to Tristram’s aid. A ‘fallen star’ of unknown original has poked a rather large hole in the old, ruined cathedral in the hills above the town. As one of five adventurers, you must investigate the catastrophe and begin a journey that will have you […]
Hot Shots Golf World Invitational | Review
Sony’s Hot Shots series has a long history on the PlayStation family of consoles dating all the way back to the PlayStation One. It’s not surprising then that an entry in the franchise launched alongside the PlayStation Vita. Hot Shots World Invitational brings the anime inspired golf series to a new platform with several improvements […]
Starhawk | Review
There is nothing better than shooting down vehicles in flight; the fiery mass of technology spiraling though space with only a bad ending in sight. Starhawk is the successor of Warhawk, and Lightbox has delivered a ton of new features that will make your next trip to space one of the best on the Playstation. […]
Game Of Thrones | Review
Winter has come my friends. Game of Thrones, an RPG set in George R.R. Martin’s phenomenal universe, is here. I made it clear when I first discovered this game that I’m a huge fan of The Song of Ice and Fire, I adore the universe and was excited to explore it. With its ever growing […]
Alan Wake’s American Nightmare | Review
This week, on Night Springs…. Now available on PC, Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, a quasi-sequel to Remedy Entertainment’s 2010 third-person adventure Alan Wake, is so concerned with name-dropping and referencing its predecessor that it never really finds a strong voice of its own. While this game is not true DLC for the original, neither the premise, […]
Skullgirls | Review
Punch, kick, it’s all in the input. That’s what could be said of the Reverge Games’ explosive new fighter, Skullgirls. On the surface this Autumn Games’ published title will look like any other all-female cast fighting game in the same spirit as Arcana Heart [Atlus], but Skullgirls offers more to the genre. As Reverge Labs […]
