Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles – Review (Wii) November 23rd, 2009 . By Shubhankar

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles – Review (Wii)

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles tries to do many new things, yet it always fails, resulting in making the overall experience a bad one. The camera control is terrible, the game relies heavily on cheap shots, and the gameplay usually feels clunky. Ultimately, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles is a disappointment, especially when you look at how games like Dead Space Extraction and House of the Dead: Overkill are taking the genre forward on the Wii…

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 – Review (X360, PS3, PSP)

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2 had a clear agenda of cutting back on content in order to refine the experience. Unfortunately they only achieved half this goal in releasing a shorter adventure with fewer characters and a less epic story. It’s still a great game that all Marvel fans will enjoy, but it was difficult to ...

Red Dead Redemption – Review (X360, PS3)

As Rockstar’s first foray into the old west open world genre, it wouldn’t be wholly unfair to call it a western Grand Theft Auto. In fact, had this been referred to as a spin off of the series, it would have been right at home. However, while I was quite disappointed with the last GTA, ...

The Evolution of Tanya

The Command and Conquer: Red Alert series has always been known for its live action cutscenes that employed a decent amount of cheese factor. However the only reoccurring and memorable character was Tanya Adams, the American commando who stuck to the tried and true action flick stereotype of tough but beautiful. As the series progressed, ...

Wii Will Rock You

The Wii gets a lot of hate, and it gets bashed. It isn’t nearly as good as its predecessors, and it does have a comparatively weak library, but most of the hate it gets is unwarranted and unfair. Let’s have an in-depth look at the Wii, all its pros, and cons, and decide for ourselves if the Wii is actually as bad as most of the gamers make it out to be.

A Look at 2010 in Gaming (PSP)

2009 is the year which will always be remembered as the year when the PSP actually fought back. With releases like Resistance: Retribution, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, Patapon 2, and Dissidia: Final Fantasy and the much anticipated (yet disastrous) launch of the PSP Go and much more, we can actually call 2009 an eventful year for the PSP. 2010, though not as eventful as this year, seems to be quite promising, and with titles like Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Resident Evil Portable and Valkyria Chronicles 2 set for release next year, the PSP looks all set to revive its library furthermore. Like we have done with all the other consoles, we will be having an in-depth look at all the titles releasing on the PSP next year.

A Look at 2010 in Gaming (DS)

The DS has had a great 2009. With releases like Mario and Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story, Dragon Quest V, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars and The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks to boast of, we can very safely call this one of the best years the DS has seen so far. Definitely, this trend of great releases shows no sign of stopping, as it sees the releases of some of the most anticipated titles of all time, including the likes of Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver, Golden Sun DS and Dragon Quest IX. Like our previous articles in this feature, we will be having an in-depth look at all the games that the DS will be getting in 2010, as it looks all set to dominate the gaming market.
