You'll laugh and have fun at the same time. What a odd concept. (X360)

I found out about this game based purely on hype. Sure we've spoken about this on the podcast but alas my memory is not like the old days. I'm glad the hype machine worked on this one. Now I cant recant to you the process why this game was developed ...

Provides more fun gameplay of a game we love. Nothing new though. (X360)

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 ...

October is the perfect month for this game to be played! (X360)

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 ...

Cute puzzler that when it works is quite addictive. Stress WHEN. (DS)

Here’s a little Nintendo DS number that was quite the industry darling, some heavy flaws are keeping it from keeping that status though. I wanna give it a 10 for it’s concept, but I gotta go with a 7 for the final execution. The Good – Cute puzzler on the ...

A super hero based title that hangs with the triple-A big boys? (X360)

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 ...

Too Challenging at times, not for the feint of heart. (XBLM)
