With only three weeks left till its eventual release here in the states, Goldeneye was playable in near complete form at the New York Comic Con. I have to say this game continues to impress me.

All that any community needs to get along is a designated place to beat the crap out of each other

A couple days ago, the new DLC package for Left 4 Dead 2 entitled The Sacrifice became available. PC users got it for free, while Xbox users had to pay 560 “Microsoft hates you and wants you to die” points. The DLC introduces two maps, one new (though slightly recycled) and one a rehash of [...]

Castlevania is one of the most enduring game franchises in history, and for good reason. It’s hard to think of a bad Castlevania game … as long as we ignore the 3D installments that is. From level-based platformers to open world 2D dungeons, Castlevania has just gotten better but has never really managed to break [...]

It has been ages since I last played a sports title for any console. However, NBA Jam just came out for the Wii, and my fond childhood memories of pumping quarters into the Jam cabinet at my local arcade has made me break my long standing rule of “sports games are retarded”. I was disappointed [...]

Two years ago, Valkyria Chronicles, a random tactical war simulator by SEGA, became an instant cult classic among the, at that time small, demographic of PS3 owners. Valkyria Chronicles 2 is attempting to do the same, with the arguably smaller demographic of PSP owners. The game makes some much needed changes to the gameplay system, [...]

Last night, Ubisoft’s new retro brawler Scott Pilgrim VS. The World: The Game hit the Playstation Network. This game, which is loosely based on a series of comics that is loosely based on gaming, was released to coincide with the movie adaptation, which is loosely based on a series of comics, that is loosely based [...]

I have been waiting so long for Arc Rise Fantasia. Not because it was supposed to be a good game or anything. No, no, no, I have been waiting for it because it’s basically the only option I have if I want to play a JRPG on the Wii. Ignitition Entertainment won us all over [...]

The Wii needs more good fighting games. There, I said it. Outside of Tatsunoko VS Capcom there are no competent fighters on the damn console. I know that the Wii has this stigma for being the casual gamers’ console and casual gamers don’t normally go for the whole fighting game thing, but dammit, we have [...]

Honestly, I don’t get the massive iPad hate out there. I mean, sure it can’t run flash, and sure it can’t do multiple applications at the same time, and sure it’s buggy, but honestly, hands on, it’s quite the device. It fills that gap where cell phones are too little but laptops are too much. [...]

Sin and Punishment: Star Successor does one thing well and one thing only, hectic arcade shooting. No really, that is the only thing it does well. This is a game that fails so completely in every other area, sporting shitty graphics, a horrible story, and truly horrendous voice acting, and yet still manages to be [...]

Kirkman has said his idea for the series was to examine what happens to the characters of a zombie movie after the credits roll – what everyday life is like for them in this drastically changed world, and even more importantly, how it changes them. He wants to show how catastrophe can bring out the absolute best and worst in human nature

I wasn’t originally going to review this game. Yes, it can count as action and it is one of the better selling games on the market right now, but in all honesty it just seemed like Super Mario Galaxy 1 all over again. Well, eventually I saw Super Mario Galaxy 2 climb the charts to [...]

When Red Dead Redemption was first announced my first reaction was something along the lines of, “oh great, Grand Theft Auto with cowboys.” Then the unfathomably massive stream of hype started up. Rockstar swore that this was some sort of interactive western movie experience that would outdo any other game in the genre. So admittedly, [...]

Alan Wake is one of those games that we have been waiting for a long time to get our hands on. It was to be a survival horror game that put the emphasis on story before anything else, going so far as to make “story” the main point of symbolism for the game. This made [...]
