Duke Returns in a Flawed but Fun Piece of History 0
While I was much more of an occasional gamer in 1996 I did play Duke Nukem 3D and remember it fondly. Not long ago I played through the game using eDuke, a free engine source port that makes the game control and play at high resolutions and using modern control methods.

Jumping forward to Duke Nukem Forever I can say much the same thing... fun but flawed.Duke Nukem Forever does not ...

Old-School Alien Shoot-'em-up With a Good PC Port 5
Ignore the Red Faction title of this game as it has very little to do with the average FPS from a decade ago or the open-world destruct-a-thon from a couple years ago.

Dead Space 2 does away with both these complaints and on top of that adds some new gameplay elements which really push it into 5-star territory....

Absolutely Terrible Game Even Compared to Average Titles 0
I've bought a lot of games from under-the-radar developers and am rarely disappointed, so I took a risk on Shadow Harvest. In general if a game is a shooter, RPG or stealth game I will like it. I was especially interested in the stealth portion of Shadow Harvest since that genre is criminally underrepresented today, the last real stealth game I know of being Velvet Assassin, which was average at best. So I bought Shadow Harvest and installed it (it uses Steamworks), ready to give it a ...

Modern Warfare 2 PC Singleplayer/SpecOPS Review 0
An overdose of spectacle makes Modern Warfare 2 slightly spastic compared to its well-paced prequel, but still a great ride. Stunning coop and competitive multiplayer round out the package.
