So it’s a no-brainer that I’ll be picking up Final Fantasy XIII next week when it launches, but I still haven’t decided which console to get it for. I love the 360, especially the controller, but I hear the PS3 will have a bit of an edge this time around when it comes to [...]

I hadn’t played any music games for a couple of weeks and then 2 nights ago I spent a couple hours on Rock Band. The first hour on drums and then another hour on guitar. Was fun, got my ass kicked by the new Megadeth songs. I did OK on some but [...]

I’ve only played this one for a few hours so far but it’s looking pretty good. The graphics are smooth and crisp and the story is looking to be a little twisted like the first one. I’m not sure if I like playing as a Big Daddy though, he seems pretty wimpy early [...]

I picked this game up from Goozex months ago but on my old TV it looked like crap. The text was too small to read comfortably and I could never seem to tell what was going on. Random things on the ground could have been blood splatters, outdoor cushions or small rodents for [...]

New from the guys who will eventually bring you Duality ZF comes the hot newretro shoot ‘em up ‘Decimation X’. It’s available to purchase on the Xbox Live Indie Games marketplace for the whopping price of 80 MS points, that’s roughly $1. It’s definitely worth the buck especially for people wanting a kick [...]

Ever since I first saw the cover of Darksiders I’ve wanted to play it. I had no idea what the game was about, I hadn’t seen any screenshots, I didn’t even know what style the game was. RPG? Action? Hack & slash? Didn’t matter, the cover art was just really cool.
But, [...]

I really need to get my butt in gear and finish off more of these games I’ve had on the shelf for months on end. I last played Ghostbusters in Sept. 09 and after trying a boss a few times I shut it off and went to bed. This morning I finally got [...]

I just broke 25000 GS tonight on the ol’ Xbox 360. Actually it was 26k but 1k of that almost feels like cheating and went by so fast I forgot about it for a minute there. Someone traded in that Avatar at my store the other day, the one where you can get [...]

I finished Borderlands last night and then proceeded to finish off the rest of the quests this morning. Then I remembered that they’ve released some DLC for the game already, something about Zombies, so I went to check it out and promptly bought it. I booted up the game and started Playthrough 2 [...]

Bought another dead xbox 360 today for $30. Less than 3 years old and the warranty sticker is still intact, so off to the fulfillment center it goes and in a few weeks I’ll have a shiny ‘new’ system to stick on the shelf to sell. And another free month of Xbox live [...]

The more I play this game the more I like it. I’ve finished off all the quests in Fyrestone and am grinding my way through New Haven but some of these bugs are getting annoying. At least I assume they’re bugs, I have 2 different quests to collect gun parts that I can’t [...]

This is definitely one of the better games I’ve played recently. It takes the standard hack & slash formula and throws in a lot of good humor and an awesome sound track. Jack Black does an excellent job voicing Eddie Riggs and most of the metal references are spot on and nostalgic. [...]

The new Batman is probably the best beat ‘em up I’ve played in years. The combat works well, is easy to pick up and challenging enough to be… challenging. I played through the entire game on Normal and while I enjoyed it, I doubt I’ll spend the time replaying it on Hard. [...]

Every time I turn around there’s a new iteration of a music game popping up on store shelves. A few versions of Rock Band and a couple dozen Guitar Hero’s, at least it feels that way. In the recent past I’ve picked up the Rock Band Country track pack, The Beatles: Rock Band, [...]
