Payday: The Heist “A Concept worth stealing”
21 Oct 2023 by Sarah Fox / No Comments
Payday: The Heist launched on the same day as some AAA titles but the developers at Overkill games have created a fast-paced, action/FPS that keeps you returning to get the job done. Though at times it maybe more frustrating than functional -
Minute To Win It Kinect Review
18 Oct 2023 by Tony Hsieh / No Comments
When I was a kid growing up, I liked to watch game shows. Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune were awesome, and who doesn’t like The Price Is Right? -
Forza Motorsport 4 Review
12 Oct 2023 by Tony Hsieh / 3 Comments
PC vs Mac. Lakers vs Celtics. Call of Duty vs every other shooter. And of course, Gran Turismo vs Forza Motorsport. The good rivalries always seem to bring out the best in both parties, and in the case of Forza Motorsport 4, the existence of Gran Turismo 5 has resulted in Turn 10 creating what is arguably the greatest racing sim of all time. -
RAGE Review
09 Oct 2023 by Taylor / 3 Comments
id Software is an interesting company. They’ve brought forth some of the most ground-breaking games in the industry. They release a new game every five to six years, This year marks the release of RAGE. An ambitious post apocalyptic first person RPG game, which outside of the look of the weapons has no resemblance or ties to Quake or Doom. But can RAGE stand along side id Software’s past releases? -

03 Oct 2023 by Sarah Fox / No Comments
Rochard might have flown under your radar with all the new titles hitting PSN lately, but Recoil Games has made a unique physics-based platformer that is sure to keep you playing through the puzzles. -
God of War: Origins Collection Review
25 Sep 2023 by Taylor / 1 Comment
God Of War is easily one of my favourite series of games out there, with the perfect blend of brutal and visceral combat mixed with light puzzles to keep your brain moving forward, God Of War (series) is a perfect example of game design done right. -
F1: 2011 Review
20 Sep 2023 by Tony Hsieh / 3 Comments
There are two sports out of all available sports in the whole world that I truly respect because of the amount of courage needed to participate in them. One is bullriding…the other is Formula One racing. -
NHL 12 Review
19 Sep 2023 by Taylor / No Comments
With winter rapidly approaching and the hockey season just around the corner, it’s that time of year, EA has set out to better itself over last years hit, NHL 11. Is NHL 12 a different enough experience to warrant the $60 price tag? -
Nyko Zoom For Kinect Review
15 Sep 2023 by Tony Hsieh / 1 Comment
One of the biggest issues to plague the Kinect when it first launched was the amount of playing space required for the device to function properly. 6-8 feet was needed between the Kinect and the player and for most, that was not possible. -
Star Fox 64 3D Review -’Do A Barrel Roll!’
09 Sep 2023 by Tony Hsieh / No Comments
Star Fox is back, and this time he’s brought a few enhancements with him. The original Nintendo 64 game, Star Fox 64 was, and still is, one of my all time favorite games. It’s one of those rare older games that I will still go back and play to this day. -
Resistance 3 Review
09 Sep 2023 by Taylor / No Comments
Resistance 3 is the third installment in a Playstation 3 exclusive series that tells the tale of an alternate 1951, where the chimera have taken over the earth. An alien threat that infects humans and changes them into chimera. Does Resistance 3 have something substantial to offer to the series? -
Dead Island review: Barely surviving it all
07 Sep 2023 by Sarah Fox / 5 Comments
The zombie infestation has taken many forms over the past decade, from over-the-top gory moments to realistic depraved settings, we have seen humans fight the undead in a variety of ways. Dead Island shines as one of the most realistic depictions of a zombie apocalypse that gaming has ever seen. -
Deus Ex Human Revolution Review
30 Aug 2023 by Taylor / 5 Comments
Deus Ex Human Revolution is a follow up to the 2000 hit Deus Ex. The original Deus Ex was a huge success because of the choice they gave the player. Almost every situation in the game could be attacked from multiple angles. Can Deus Ex Human Revolution please those who invested so much time in the original, while appealing to a whole new audience that never played the original? -
Madden 12 Review
26 Aug 2023 by Tony Hsieh / No Comments
It’s August, it’s hot, and there’s a smell in the air. Perhaps the smell is that of barbeques and screaming kids who don’t want to return to school, but those of us who spend our summers poring over training camp reports and every little transaction know that the smell is that of football. Yes, folks, all that lockout malarkey is over and football is back! And with that, another year of Madden is also back! -
Catherine Review
05 Aug 2024 by Taylor / 1 Comment
Catherine is a completely Japanese game, brought forward from the Persona Team. It’s probably the strangest game I’ve played in a while and has some very simplistic and reminiscent gameplay. Is Catherine worth your time and money? -
Bastion Review
25 Jul 2024 by Justin Smith / No Comments
Bastion is one the best games to be released this year and is a great way to kick off this year’s Summer of Arcade. -
NCAA Football 12 Review
15 Jul 2024 by Tony Hsieh / 1 Comment
EA is back with their annual college football game, and as usual, it’s a pretty darn good one! This iteration sees a few changes in the gameplay itself, a healthy amount of changes in the two main career modes: Road to Glory and Dynasty, and a number of small tweaks to the visual presentation. -
Alice : Madness Returns Review
07 Jul 2024 by Taylor / No Comments
American McGee’s Alice was a game that received a very warm reception back in the year 2000, now with his own company Spicy Horse, American McGee returns to the dark twisted world that he created in Alice: Madness Returns, can this game do the original justice eleven years later? -
F.3.A.R Review
02 Jul 2024 by Taylor / 1 Comment
First Encounter Assault Recon (F.E.A.R) has been a one of a kind experience through its past iterations, with the absolutely crazy and absurd ending of F.E.A.R 2, can F.E.A.R 3 move the game and the story forward, or is it still stuck in 2005? -
inFamous 2 Review
30 Jun 2024 by Taylor / 3 Comments
A little over two years ago Sucker Punch released an open world title that shook the foundations of open world games and brought forth arguably the best game on the Playstation 3 platform, now inFamous 2 seeks to hold the throne and deliver a great open world experience, but does it succeed? -
Duke Nukem Forever Review
15 Jun 2024 by Taylor / 2 Comments
Duke Nukem Forever is the newest and most likely last game to come out of 3D Realms, with the help of a few other developers, most notably, Gearbox Software, Duke Nukem Forever has finally seen the light of day. After it’s un-healthy long development cycle and it’s HUGELY successful predecessor can Duke still hold the title as king?

Dirt 3 Review
28 May 2024 by Taylor / 2 Comments
Dirt 3 is the follow-up to Colin McRae: Dirt 2. If you’re not familiar with the franchise, it’s a very dirty racer. Lots of drifting, lots of dirt and lots of action. With the racing genre getting increasingly more crowded, can Dirt 3 float above the rest? -
L.A. Noire: Review
17 May 2024 by Sarah Fox / 4 Comments
L.A. Noire is at its heart a performance piece. A showcase of new technology and new story telling advancements; all aimed at delivering a unprecedented level of character development to the player. The technology used was named MotionScan and its ability to capture the human face and all of its subtle expressions is nothing short of remarkable and at some times haunting. -
Mortal Kombat: PS3 Review
14 May 2024 by Sarah Fox / 2 Comments
Most fighting game fans can probably remember which of the entries into the Mortal Kombat franchise is their favorite. However, as a close converse to that, many can probably also remember which one(s) are the worst. -
Brink Review
12 May 2024 by Taylor / 3 Comments
Brink is an ambitious, highly anticipated First Person Shooter from Splash Damage Studios, the makers of Enemy Territories and Doom 3. This is their first attempt at a console game to tag along with the PC release. With all the ambition and anticipation behind Brink, does it have a place in the much crowded First Person Shooter market?
