This game seems to be as intellectual as the ever-chivalrous Duke Nukem, with lots of manly man grunting and cursing–oh boy. Bad marketing decisions aside, the gaming looks solid, even for a FPS. Way over the top. I’ll look into more game play videos, though, I’m barely two minutes into this demo video and am already [...]

Preview: Fallout: New Vegas
Do not let the name fool you. The biggest city in the game is New Vegas, and it will offer nothing but the vices nestled so securely in its crevices, but you will still be traveling the Mojave Wastelands and fighting for your life-and ambitions. The story seems to be straight-forward: part of it involves the actual [...]
“Supreme Diggity,” is what hip nerds say!
I bought Bioshock cheap right when the sequel came out this year. When I first tried to sit through it a couple of months ago, I could not come to appreciate the cartoony characters, their fear tactics, or the Big Daddies. When it came out three years ago (has it really been that long?) I remember having a [...]
DS – Avalon Code
I’ve had the file of this game for a long time but never invested any time in playing it; since I’ve been psuedo-crippled by my blister I ditched the gym for today and decided to fire Avalon Code up on my Nintendo DS. Review coming if I get into it! 0
Final Fantasy IX – The Review
One thing to keep in mind about Final Fantasy IX is the fact that it idolizes the art of theatre, and is thus bold in its aesthetic edge as a play often is. The presentation of the game as a play is articulated via the exaggerated personalities of the characters, their demeanor, wardrobe, as [...]
Red Dead Redemption Needs No Redemption (But a Sequel Would Be Nice!)
Red Dead Redemption goes so far beyond simply perfecting ever turn and speed bump while blazing its way into modern video game history better than any internal combustion engine vehicle could. This Rockstar releases pushes past the flawless game play to securely find its footing, only to provoke the player into considering the concept of redeeming [...]
Saboteur
I have mixed feelings about this game: The graphics appear polished in some areas and then perfectly vomit-inducing in others. It’s basically Assassin’s Creed set in World War II. It’s fun to play. Too many glitches. Awkward controls sometimes. I can’t help but think whoever was working on this game wasn’t given enough time to work out [...]
Final Fantasy 13: The Review
Somewhere along the way, some delicate flower decided to spew out the word ‘linear’ in an effort to sway the enthusiasm many of us had for the game. Let’s be honest, who likes to hear words like linear be thrown around when they’re supposed to be playing a fun game? Straight lines aren’t fun. Unless [...]
Final Fantasy 13 – Experience Needed to Level Each Weapon
I’ve been grinding for gil on my chocobo because I need gil to level my characters’ weapons-before I move to accessories. I’m loving the grind. Typical. I’ve also already filled up my CP grid (three primary roles only) and I’ve gotten 4/6 of mid-tier now (quality) weapons so far. Anyway, I already have the game guide, and I’ve [...]
