Castle Crashers is a fun beat'em up with nice humor. (XBLM)

I was a big Alien Homnid fan back in the Gamecube days. So when I heard about Castle Crashers, I was pretty excited. I originally played this game last with in a local multiplayer setting. It's almost a different experience when you're playing with someone else. You're not concerned about ...

The After Years is a fun nostalgia trip but with alot of problems (WSHP)

Final Fantasy II for the SNES is probably my favorite RPG experience as a kid. It was the first RPG I played with such a massive storyline, full of plot twists, and rememberable characters. So with that bit of history, it's probably my favorite RPG of all time. Final Fantasy ...

Dark Messiah was an ugly and broken mess of a game. (X360)

There really isn't much to say about Dark Messiah, so I'll keep this short. The game is ugly, the controls are clunky, the story was boring and the game was buggy. It's not worth your time or your money. I regret putting 12 hours into this game. The end. ----------Battle ...

Mass Effect was a fun experience, bogged down by buggy graphics. (X360)

Ok, I need to get this off my chest. I was not a fan of Kotor at all. I didn't care for the sci-fi / Star Wars universe. I didn't like the combat. I felt the quest system was to hard to navigate through, and finally, I hated how big ...

Zoids Assault was difficult, ugly and a waste of time. (X360)

I think I started Zoids Assault about 9 or 10 months ago. I looked up a guide to see how long of a game it was, and it seemed short, so I was expecting to blast through it and forget about it after a few weeks. I was not prepared ...

Fable II was a huge improvement over the original but had faults. (X360)

Overall, I enjoyed Fable II more so than the original. Most of the bugs were kinked out, the controls were fixed, the quests were better, etc. I just had more fun with this game. The map, while not great, was still improved. The dog was an "ok" addition. Could they ...

Beowulf is a bland and somewhat forgettable beat'em up. (X360)

As I will mention many times in this review, I haven't seen the Beowulf movie and I have no interest in seeing it. I know a little bit about the Beowulf history but that's about it. With that said, the storyline still made no sense to me at all. The ...

Circle of Doom was a generic, boring and ugly mess. (X360)

This is my first Kingdom Under Fire game. I have the 2 Xbox releases just sitting on my shelve, waiting to be played, but I felt like playing this one first. From my understanding, the very first Kingdom Under Fire game was a straight up RTS. The 2 Xbox games ...

My Sims Kingdoms was charming and quirky, but sadly repetitive. (WII)

I am not a fan of the Sims games for the PC at all. I just didn't get it, and I don't think I ever will. There was just to much micromanaging involved and I always felt rushed and overwhelmed. In My Sims Kingdoms, you control the pace of the ...

Vesperia won't disappoint longtime fans of the series. (X360)

As a huge fan of Tales of games, Vesperia hardly disappoints. It nails nearly everything I love about Tales games. Colorful graphics, likable characters, fun dialog, and fast combat. My only complaint are the weak dungeons, and skill micromanaging. The dungeons felt really short and linear. Micromanaging your skills was ...

Last Remnant's battle system bored me, but I did enjoy sidequests (X360)

Last Remnant is a game I hard no expectations for, and little knowledge about. I honestly thought this game was a hack and slasher like Dynasty Warriors. When I jumped into the first battle, it felt closer to Lost Odyssey. Another thing I vaguely remember about this game during the ...

Mystic Heroes is a repetitive hack and slasher not worth picking (GC)

Mystic Heroes was not a fun game, well I did have fun with it for the first couple stages, but after that it just got so boring and repetitive. By stage 3 I was dreading the whole game. Fighting some bosses was a long and painful process, rarely hard, but ...

Shadow Hearts: FTNW was a huge step down from the previous games. (PS2)

Shadow Hearts: FTNW was a pretty big disappointment. It wasn't a terrible or broken game, it just didn't live up to the previous standards of Shadow Hearts to me. I really enjoyed the first two games, but this one did nothing for me. The battle system is still pretty good, ...

Metroid Prime 3 has perfect controls and fun gameplay. (WII)

This is the first Metroid Prime I actually beat. I got 2/3s of the way into the first Metroid Prime, I got the final boss in Metroid Prime 2, and I gave up after about 2 weeks with Metroid Prime Hunters. The first Metroid Prime was amazing for the time, ...

Avatar was an unoriginal, boring mess. (WII)

I will admit, I am not that familiar with the IP. I never watched the shows, and the only real experience I have with Avatar is the previous Wii game. I actually enjoyed the last Wii game. It was a basic Dark Alliance clone, and what it did, it did ...

Two Worlds is a bland experience and a technical mess. (X360)

Two Worlds is a technical fart. I think I would have enjoyed it much more if it wasn't for the ugly graphics, bland world, terrible controls, bad art, and just overall technical screw ups and glitches. I DID enjoy the quests. I loved exploring, even though the world was bland, ...

Spectral Force 3 was clunky, ugly mess, with a fun battle system. (X360)

Where do I start with Spectral Force 3? I'm not familiar with the series at all, since this is the first one to be released here. I'm not entirely impressed with this one though. The storyline is almost non-existant, which means, I really didn't care for the characters at all. ...

Avatar: The Last Airbender was shockingly good. (WII)

Avatar: The Last Airbender was actually a much better game than I expected. I knew it was a Dark Alliance-type game, but I didn't know it was soo similar. It's actually a deeper game in some regards. I love how open the maps are, I love finding the quests from ...

Alien Syndrome had tight controls but everything else was garbage (WII)

I loved the Alien Syndrome for the arcade. I had the NES port back in the day, and played it to death with my sister. It was a fun top-down shooter where you save hostages from hordes of aliens and fought an epic boss at the end of each stage.However, ...
