I’m The GD Batman: A Review of Batman: Arkham City

Back in 2009, Rocksteady’s brilliant Arkham Asylum reinvigorated my devotion to the Dark Knight. Jump ahead a bit and here we are at 2011 with its sequel, Arkham City, and a whole new level of Batman to explore.

The Remastered Quest: An Ocarina of Time 3D Review

It’s been a few months since I broke down and purchased a 3DS, but it only dawned on me yesterday that while I have played through The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, I’ve yet to give my full impressions of the title. Well, Zelda is still going through its wonderful 25th anniversary, so [...]

The Man Beneath The Ghost: A Review Of God Of War Origins

There are very few games out there that really get my gears turning and heart pumping like a good round of God of War, the epic tale of a one-Spartan-army and his rampage through the pantheon of Greek Mythology with the power of chain blades and quick time events.

Radiant Silvergun, at last we can all play

The legend. The myth. One of the best arcade shooters is finally easy to get. The wait is over Radiant Silvergun is a long saught after arcade shooter for fans like myself. Along with Ikaruga, Silvergun is considered one of the “holy grail” games not only because it’s a really good game, but because it [...]

Bastion lives up to the hype

Bastion lives up to the hype

I’m not much of an RPG gamer but when I saw Bastion previewed for the Summer of Arcade I pegged it as one I would enjoy. Most of the time my gaming expectations aren’t fully satisfied but this time they were exceeded.

Let a great summer of arcade games begin

Microsoft’s Summer of Arcade on Xbox Live is nearing very quickly, and while there are a few titles in that bunch that have me excited, this past week’s offers kicked off what will certainly be an expensive summer for me. Galaga Legions DX and Half Minute Hero were both released for $10 and I have [...]

My Final Verdict: An L.A. Noire Review

Everyone and their cousin Fred have weighed in on L.A. Noire, and I thought it best to give a more in-depth look at the game now that the smoke has cleared. You have probably heard the basic premise of Rockstar’s latest interactive movie-game: As L.A.P.D. detective Cole Phelps, you sleuth and gumshoe your way around [...]
