Tomb Raider Review

Anna Kerr — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 21:07:43 +0000

I recently completed Tomb Raider (XBOX 360), and I couldn’t have enjoyed my experience more. I have played a couple Tomb Raider games in the past on the PlayStation One and Dreamcast, but I was late to the crowd and wasn’t really in love with the games as much as I was with the idea/concept [...]

Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure

Katie Cottage — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 21:20:01 +0000

Some may yell “blasphemy!” when I tell them Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure (Xbox 360) is the first Spyro game I have ever played, but not all of us can keep up on gaming cred with a market full of wonderful games. I typically favor handhelds for gaming, but when I walked by a store display of [...]

Max Payne 3 Review

Andrew Allen — Thu, 17 May 2012 09:47:23 +0000

This is one of the hardest reviews I’ve ever had to write. “Max Payne 3” may be the most polished and thoughtfully executed entry the franchise has yet had, but that doesn’t necessarily make it the best. Rockstar Vancouver clearly set out to modernize Max, to put a fresh coat of paint on him and bring [...]

Prototype 2 Review

Andrew Allen — Tue, 15 May 2012 11:02:24 +0000

Very few sequels have ever changed so little, yet come so far. “Prototype 2” looks and feels much like its ancestor, and yet where the original was frustratingly incomplete, the sequel is the real deal. It’s not perfect, but its victories overpower its weaknesses, resulting in one of the best sandbox mayhem machines ever built. [...]

Impressions: Transformers Dark of the Moon

RurouniQ — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 16:08:20 +0000

First off, I should lead by saying that this game does not suck. It says something, really, that I have to state this outright. I mean, we’re dealing with multiple factors here: the legacy of “Transformers Revenge of the Fallen,” not to mention movie games in general. There’s the gaming industry’s past [...]

Review: Lego Pirates of the Caribbean

RurouniQ — Mon, 16 May 2011 15:00:43 +0000

Thar may be some of ye out there who have not yet played a bloody Lego franchise game… Ye scurvy sons of wenches, this be an unacceptable course! *COUGH COUGH* Ok, enough with [...]

Mortal Kombat

BreakmanX — Sun, 08 May 2011 09:23:11 +0000

I can still remember that bright Spring afternoon, coming home from school and discovering that all my friends had gathered at my neighbors house. What mystery was contained that would stir up such a ruckus? A working lightsaber? A Neo Geo? I walked down the stairs into his basement to find the only light coming [...]

Sonic Unleashed

BreakmanX — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 15:24:20 +0000

So, my holiday break has begun with me playing Sonic Unleashed. As many of you know I’m a fan of the Sonic series and have been playing every one since the release of the original. I even liked the Wii one that came out a couple years ago, despite hating the bug filled adventure that [...]

Review: Rez HD

BreakmanX — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 10:26:24 +0000

So if you’ve listened to the show, you’ve probably at least heard of Rez. Its one-of-a-kind visuals and the legend of the Trance Vibrator (literally, a USB vibrator that vibrated in time with the game and came in a machine-washable sleeve) make this game hard to forget, much less ignore. Well, Rez HD came out [...]

So I bought a wheel…

BreakmanX — Mon, 22 Oct 2007 20:23:03 +0000

The Microsoft Wireless Racing Wheel, used, for $55 after a few trades. Not bad for a quality accessory from a respected manufacturer. And who’s surprised the racing lemming bought one? Did Picasso buy brushes? But you know what? I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Here’s why. 1.) It’s wireless, except that it isn’t. Microsoft’s misnomer [...]
