Review: MLB 12: The Show (PS3)

Spring has sprung in North America, triumphantly signaling the return of America’s Pastime.  The smells of freshly cut grass and even fresher grilled brats, set against the combined cacophony of street vendors and bellowing umpires, can bring out the kid in all of us.  While many would prefer to...

Review: Warlock: Master of the Arcane (PC)

Say what you will about empire-building, 4X style strategy games, but if there is one genre that will get me to turn my PC on in a heartbeat, it’s these. I even went out and got a new computer just to play Civilization V. Games like Sins of the Solar Empire always had me sitting there on my computer for...

Review: The Walking Dead: Episode 1 (XBLA)

While zombie fever has died down somewhat (no pun intended), “ghoul”-sanity still lives on in the hearts of fans of The Walking Dead franchise.  Both the graphic novels and television show have spawned a love of the doomsday scenario in both young and old.  So it is no surprise that Robert Kirkman and...

Review: The Walking Dead: Episode 1 (PC)

The Walking Dead: Episode 1 is the perfect game for fans of The Walking Dead franchise. In other words, this isn’t another game where you run around and shoot zombies with a near endless supply of weaponry. This experience is more about interacting with other characters, building relationships with...

Review: Star Drone Extreme (Vita)

What happens when you fuse the fling-happy gameplay of Angry Birds with the random and chaotic physics based gameplay of pinball, while tossing the whole thing into space? Well, you get Star Drone Extreme. The game has some things holding it back however. We’ll get to the heavy stuff near the...

Review: Naval War: Arctic Circle(PC)

War games have always been fascinating to me. I’m not talking the action packed Call of Duties or the bloody and gruesome Gears of Wars either.  I’m talking your down-right strategy games; games that require a great deal of patience, skill and thinking to them. Sure, you have to have brains and be...

Review: The House of the Dead 4 (PS3)

Some players scoff at arcade rail shooters. The games generally take less than a half hour to plow through and contain some rather simplistic gameplay: insert money, point gun at enemy horde, blow enemies’ heads off, run out of life, rinse, repeat. But that simplicity – and the adrenaline...

Review: Music Unlimited (PS3, Vita)

This is a decent music streaming service with some glaring holes in the artist and album library. Those users with more modern musical tastes will find this to be a great experience, especially for those that own a PS3, Vita, and computer. App: Sony Music Unlimited Publisher: Sony Computer...

Review: Little Deviants (Vita)

We’ve got new hardware in the form of the PlayStation Vita, and as such, it seems only fitting for the platform to have it’s own mini-game compliation to break in all the new feaatures that come with new hardware. Does Little Deviants manage to set itself apart from past generations...

Diabolical Pitch Review (XBLA)

Diabolical Pitch Review (XBLA)

It takes a lot for me to use my Kinect nowadays.  Most of the games lose their appeal very quickly or just don’t respond well to the Kinect camera.  Many of times, it kind of sits there as a novelty in my house.  The most usage it gets is when I’m too lazy to strap a head set on for some multi-player...
