  • Uncharted was a good release and amazing with the second!: Man, the PS3 has been on a roll this year with it’s exclusives and Uncharted 2 is no exception. Read on for some thoughts on one of my favorite gaming experiences of the year. 9/10 The Good – Please excuse me if I happen to repeat certain things from my review of the first game. But what was good there returns and is even better this time around. The Indiana ...

  • One of my all time favorite first person shooters EVER: In a bit of bass ackwardsness, here’s my review to the 2nd expansion pack to Half-Life 2. One of my all time favorite first person shooters EVER. Why this one first? I just played through it for a 2nd time last week so it’s fresh in my mind. The first time was when it was released 2yrs. ago on the Xbox360, then last week on my fairly equipped PC. I’m ...

  • Dont Pay for this if you dont play lots of Co-Op.:  Left 4 Dead is a zombie survivor story. You are given 4 seperate places to escape the zombie invasion along with 3 other NPC’s. You can have the option to play locally 4 player, online co-0p or by yourself with the computer playing the other 3. Good: The game is straight forward in it strategy. Point, shoot and watch the aftermath. It’s extremely easy to pick up.  Trouble is. That’s ...

  • Provides more fun gameplay of a game we love. Nothing new though.:  I'm not exactly sure about the future. I've seen every Back to the Future so I suppose I have some keen awareness of generic time travel principals.  You probably wont see me writing the "How to Time Travel" for Dummies, so Peter Molyneux the man we all love to hate probably wouldn't have hired me to create the latest DLC for Fable 2.  Good: I hate to list this as ...

  • October is the perfect month for this game to be played!: A couple podcasts ago, I mentioned trying out Dead Space Extraction on the Wii all for about 10 minutes. Now we know it’s a prequel, but since I never had the time to play through the original game that came out a year ago, I figured October is as good of a month as any to have the bejeezus scared out of me. This game delivers, released for the Xbox ...

  • If you’re a Halo fan, you know what to do, if not, become one.:  Coming 2yrs after the release of Halo 3 is this tight little expansion, Halo 3 ODST. If you’re a Halo fan, you know what to do, if not, this game won’t change your mind…..8/10. The Good – More Halo, that’s really good to me, which means top notch console first person shooter action. The storyline is a fresh take on the usual formula, you get to see different takes from ...

  • Still the Ultimate City Planning game 5 years later.:  Sim City 4, released in 04 is the ultimate City Builder game that burst upon the Computer Gaming world in the late 80's and has spawned several sequels. All of which I've voraciously devoured.  Although my first expierence was Sim City on the Super Nintendo. The version of the game I'm reviewing is includes the Rush Hour Expansion.Good - City Creating takes on a whole new meaning. You can drive ...

  • A super hero based title that hangs with the triple-A big boys? :  Could it be? A super hero based title that hangs with the triple-A big boys? Since I feel this game is a 9/10, I’d say so. I played this joint on the xbox360, it’s also out for PS3 and PC. The Good – Awesome 3rd person adventure that juggles many gaming styles. Obviously you play as Batman, who captures the Joker, while transporting him to Arkham Asylum, Joker gets loose ...

  • Sorry but mgmt wasn't some starter. They're just rehashing the electro clash. If anything they're late to the game.  It's all bred out of that horrible breed of music that was coming out in the late 90's after brit pop ended.  also what's the question " This was the song that I feel made a lot of artists try their hand at more Disco influenced stuff back in the 2000's"  ...

  •  Who the hell cares about taking the video game industry more seriously and why should I ever care what they think?  Also..dude. Looking up to journalists? C'mon. Seriously? Thanks for taking the time to think this up, I know you feel strongly about it but it would cause a lot less turmoil feeling LESS strongly about it. The world's screwed up man.

  • MasterControl replied to the topic WHAT SHOULD I BUY?
    I'd say killzone too. Great game, the both of them. I get clowned for it from friends but the early ghost recon games are pretty good.  Might be easy to grasp due to your previous jump into the FPS world of CoD.

Lets just put that out there.You’ve also most likely played this game but, if you have not, and fall into the category then please go purchase this right now.

Me, no. I'm not in a situation that requires me to have to play or do something. Like riding the train to work. Living in philly i'd also er on the side of not having a psp or gba on the train anyways. I saw the police bum rush a dude on the train a few weeks back and they pulled out this machette. It was wild.   The screen's too small. And anyways, i'm old. Sometimes I enjoy peace and quiet and disconnect from the machines.
