Platforming Served Well Done: A Review Of Super Meat Boy

The year is in its eleventh hour now with some of the biggest games coming and going too fast to keep up with. My only hope is that a small arcade-style title named Super Meat Boy doesn’t get washed away with the rest of the usual fodder. Much of this rests on my love of [...]

Monkey’s Life-Changing Trip: A Review of Enslaved: Odyssey to the Wes

I feel very sad now. You know why? Because I have just finished playing Ninja Theory’s new game, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and… well… it was really really good. I am sad because I realized that I merely rented it and will have to return it tomorrow. While the length of the story is [...]

Just Stay Dead: A Review of Dead Rising 2

So we all know my opinion of the first Dead Rising game. I dinged it heavily due to escort missions, limitations on weapons, and above all, a ridiculous timer affecting everything I did. Now that Dead Rising 2 is out, how do I feel about a largely unchanged sequel? Well, that’s what you’ll have to [...]

Scott Pilgrim vs This Game Review: FIGHT!

So Scott Pilgrim is both an awesome graphic novel and a kickass movie. But wait, there’s more! Scott Pilgrim also has a game for the Playstation Network and Xbox Live Arcade called Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game. I bought it, played it, and beat it. So is it any good? It’s Scott Pilgrim [...]

This means my review [...]

My Pokeweek continues today after a bit of a day off yesterday, though the games still relate to the concept of completing everything in the game for simply no point. Nope, today we’re all about happy things because I’ve got a review for the remake of Pokemon Gold and Silver versions, called HeartGold and SoulSilver. [...]

The Luckiest Number: Final Fantasy XIII Review

I’m fighting with myself regarding the best way to handle this review. It’s probably best that I make a few things abundantly clear right away since anyone that thinks about it and runs the numbers will figure out my chief reservation: Final Fantasy XIII came out today and I have no money. There is no [...]

I’ve Seen Heavier: A Review of Heavy Rain

I am not a fan of hype. Any time I hear too much on a title I start to dislike the game on principle alone, so Heavy Rain was big on my skeptical radar. I had been hearing all sorts of things about the PS3 exclusive regarding the detail of graphics and the amount of [...]

Blasphemy Unto Kratos: A Review of Dante’s Inferno

I called it. I’d only played the demo for Dante’s Inferno but that was all I needed to figure this one out entirely. Now that it’s been out for a week or so, let’s take a look at Dante’s Inferno as it plays as a game, though I could probably just tell you to go [...]

Simbling Rivalry At It’s Best: A Review of Bioshock 2

If you’ve read my Bioshock review, you already know that I like Bioshock. If you read my preview for Bioshock 2, then you know I’m pretty psyched for the sequel. Well, the sequel’s out now, so did it live up to my expectations? There is some good, some bad, and some blah, but let’s save [...]
