  • DisneyQuest Review 0 CommentsPosted by Jonathan on June 4, 2010 under Editorials, Featured, Games, Reviews
    My girlfriend and I visited Disney Quest recently in Orlando, FL. I've wanted to visit this place for years after hearing that it's one of the best arcades within a thousand miles from where I live. We've seen a decline in arcades since the 90s. I believe this is because of the powerful home consoles we now have that rival the power of arcade machines. So does Disney Quest bring back that old f... more.
  • Halo Reach Beta: First Impression 0 CommentsPosted by Jonathan on May 11, 2010 under Games, Reviews
    As many of you know, the Halo Reach beta is available on Xbox Live to those who purchased a copy of Halo 3: ODST, or got it by some other means. I've played for a few hours so far and these are my first impressions. Overall, I feel the beta is good. The beta is nothing amazing, no big surprises. It’s just another version of my favorite gaming series. To me, this feels like a mix of Halo 2 and... more.
  • BEAST WARS! “Board Game in Disguise” 3 CommentsPosted by JGH27 on April 17, 2010 under Games, Reviews
    After doing some rummaging in my closet and finding a gem from my youth, I’m back with another board game review. Now this game took 2 of my favourite things as a child, Beast Wars and board games and threw them together as a way to further capitalize on the merchandising machine known as Transformers. Now, the original Transformers series from the 80’s was just before my time for it’s peak ... more.
  • Top 10 Games for the PSP 12 CommentsPosted by Bonemeal on under Editorials, Featured, Games, Reviews
    Five years... The PSP has now been on the market for five years. I actually bought my original PSP-1000 series during the Summer of 2005. Sadly, there just weren't enough games to piqué my interest and I sold my original PSP in November 2005. However, come Spring 2008, I bought another PSP. Since 2005 some very great - and even epic - PSP games have come along. Thinking of getting a PSP? ... more.
  • Heavy Rain Review (PS3) 7 CommentsPosted by Lewis Dunn on April 11, 2010 under Featured, Games, Reviews
    This review is difficult to write. No, it's not because I have any major issues with Heavy Rain (or that I'm personally involved in its development), but because I’m not entirely sure a review for it belongs on a site dedicated to games. You see, Heavy Rain might not be a game, but then again it might be, maybe... I don’t know. This isn’t exactly a flying start is it? Let me try to explain w... more.
  • Freespace Retrospective 2 CommentsPosted by Kelsey on March 20, 2010 under Editorials, Games, Reviews
    Descent: Freespace – the Great War, also known as Conflict: Freespace – the Great War in Europe (or more simply as Freespace), is a 1998 space combat sim developed by Volition and published by Interplay for the PC. Volition is largely made up of the former members of Parallax, which split into two separate companies after the release of Descent II (the other company being the now defunct Outra... more.
  • Okami Review 0 CommentsPosted by Death Hormone on March 16, 2010 under Reviews
    Let me start this review by firstly saying how unique and amazing this game is, I've been gaming for about 17 years now, and the last game I played that's made me remember why I fell in love with games was Skies Of Arcadia, and that was years ago. And even Skies Of Arcadia didn't make me feel this happy about being a gamer. Okami originally came out for the PS2 a few years back, and was devel... more.
  • LostWinds Review 2 CommentsPosted by Death Hormone on March 12, 2010 under Games, Reviews
    LostWinds was a Wii Ware launch Title. Upon release, it costs 1,000 Wii Points. Is it worth the price? And more importantly, is it any good? LostWinds is a fresh, enchanting adventure that lets you wield the awesome powers of Enril the Wind Spirit.  Summoning raging tornadoes to the gentlest breeze to guide and protect Toku, our main hero of the story. Story Enril is currently only Wind Sp... more.
  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King Review 2 CommentsPosted by Death Hormone on March 11, 2010 under Games, Reviews
    My Life as a King is a launch title for the Nintendo Wii, Wiiware service. It costs 1,500 Wii points, and it's also the first game on the Wii to use Nintendo's Pay to play service. Which sees you paying a few Wii points(the most being 800) for additional content, such as extra dungeons, Races, buildings etc. Story [caption id="attachment_1303" align="alignleft" width="212" caption="The main boss... more.
  • Bioshock 2 Review 6 CommentsPosted by Lewis Dunn on March 10, 2010 under Featured, Games, Reviews
    Water water everywhere and not a drop to drink. Bioshock 2 takes us back into the ideological hell hole that is Rapture, the underwater city with a dying soul. Just how did 2K Marin, a team composed of 4 different developers, take one of the most interesting and politically charged games of 2007 and make a sequel to such a complete story? An even greater question is; did they succeed in meeting or... more.
