  • The game itself, at least, in the first few levels that Jeff showed, is an exact re-creation of the game I played back in the 80s on my old 8088 PC.

Jack Thompson is so disbarred that he can't even file his nails.

Woo!  Hit over 1000 points!  I'm editing and linking like mad now!

Well, not like mad.  I'm not angry, or insane or anything, just, you know, a bit peeved, I guess.

DAMNIT MOM, YOU RUINED MY LIFE!

Viceral, action-based entertainment (PC)
Visceral, action-based entertainment will always have a warm place in my heart, way down there with the original Doom and Quake, etc. Games which don’t bother much with plot, but just give you hours upon hours of action. While I enjoy a game with a large arcing plot line, sometimes ...

Vastly Underrated (PS2)
Back a few years ago a game was released on PS2 called Sly Cooper and the Thevious Raccoonus to loads of critical acclaim, and seemingly very little sales. The game was a blend between cell-shaded platformer and Metal-Gear style sneaking, and was very good at what it did. The only ...

Like a meat cleaver to the face! (XBOX)
At E3 this last year I saw quite a few different games, many of which I was aware of, and some I'd only heard some vague reference to. One of the games that took me completely by surprise was The Punisher. After the movie that was released last year, it's ...

A good movie-based game? (XBOX)
It’s not very often that a movie-based game, or, for that matter, a game-based movie, has been any good. Such abominations, such as E.T., or Charlie’s Angels, or ones so bad they’re painful to bring back into memory, such as Ringu for Dreamcast… *shudder*. Occasionally, you will find a good ...

Dooooooooom! (PC)
Recently there has been a game released called Doom3. Maybe you have heard of it? It's a small remake of an old game that was released some 10 years ago, called Doom. If you've never heard of it, don't feel bad, it was a small game which almost no one ...

Innovation! (PC)
With a series such as Myst, which has had, so far, 6 games, and 3 books, innovation is the key. The original was nothing more than a interactive slideshow put together with Hypercard and Quicktime, and some advanced (for the time) 3D rendering technology, however it came on a shiny ...

This game sucks, in a good way. (PC)
Now, this may not be something you would expect from the likes of me, but I have been a player of games in the World of Darkness series for quite a while. While I was never a large fan of Vampire: The Masquerade, I was quite familiar with the series. ...

Metal Gear Blotter Acid (PSP)
One of the more unique games released for the PSP at its initial release was the latest installment in the highly popular Metal Gear series, Metal Gear Acid. Once again created by Hideo Kojima, whose name has practically become a household word since the release of Metal Gear Solid was ...

Really not that bad. (PSP)
Unless you've been hiding under a rock, you know about the game Katamari Damacy, the quirky little game where you roll a ball around and pick up stuff. Released late last year was the sequel to the game, We Love Katamari, which included more levels, more things to do, a ...

Gah. I feel that we are friends, you and I. I feel that we share a very close bond… The kind of bond which can only really be shared between someone like me, who writes reviews, and someone like you, who reads these reviews. And, as we are so close, ...

Awesome Yelp review typo on local burger joint: "Nothing spactacular. Ambiance leaves a lot to be desired. Prices are ok and god is so so."

My new power to change the GB homepage's tagline at will is surely going to lead to ruin.
