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 ...
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion – Review (PC, X360, PS3)
After playing Elder Scrolls IV for three years, and having just finished it for the first time, I can say this: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is the deepest, the longest, the most involving and the most addictive RPG I have ever played. For starters, Elder Scrolls IV is a 200 hour long game and that too, ...
Dragon Age: Origins – Review (PS3, X360, PC)
With a Tolkien-esque story, a deep, involving and varied gameplay structure, stellar music effects and a rich, vivid world, Dragon Age is paradise for fantasy RPG lovers, and a must buy for all those who call themselves gamers…
Borderlands – Review (X360, PS3, PC)
Blending genres doesn’t usually work too well, as the games typically turn out as watered down version of each included style. It is because of this that Borderlands is a daring prospect. Not only does it blend two very different types of games, but it attempts to lay claim to a whole new genre, the ...
Too Human – Review (X360)
One thing that must be said about Too Human is that it is a fairly unique experience. Very few games are based around Norse mythology and even less have so deeply immersed itself in it. Too Human could have left it at that, but it also threw in a futuristic setting and some new spins ...
Fallout 3: Broken Steel
There were many pretensions to the obviously successful Fallout 3 soon after its release: the Oblivion engine degrading the presentation, the lack of the original’s atmosphere, and other fanboy-based rantings for no apparent reason. However, what many agreed on, was the lower-than-expected scale and continuity of the main storyline, as opposed to the insormountable numbers ...
Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta – Review (X360, PC)
I have been constantly impressed with the downloadable content that has been available for Fallout 3. Each new DLC has been quite different than the last and each has been a worthy experience. That is, until now. Somehow, the final (planned) download has managed to ignore everything that made the game it is based on ...
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
For all the Marvel fans out there, if you haven’t bought this game yet…well, frankly, you aren’t real Marvel fans. Ultimate Alliance brings nearly all of your favorite characters into an epic storyline that fits marvelously (sorry, I couldn’t resist) into the established universe. Even if you aren’t a big comic book fan, this is ...
Overlord
This is one of those rare titles that tries to blend several different genres and actually does a pretty good job of pulling it off. There are equal amounts of action, role playing, strategy and even a touch of puzzle solving in the game and all are done well. It is weak in some areas ...
Mass Effect
This is the closest any game has ever come to living up the the hype. No one thing about it makes it great. There are many things that are rather annoying about the game. If you look past the individual problems, the game as a whole is an amazing achievement. This is the first game ...
