Dragon Fantasy Book Two Review
Platforms: PC, Android, iOS, Playstation 3 (reviewed), and Vita (reviewed) I reviewed Dragon Fantasy: Book One earlier this year. While I enjoyed my time with it, the “swing and a miss” battles sucked a bit of my enjoyment out of it. Hoping for something a bit more brisk this time around, I sat down with Dragon […]
The Bureau: XCOM Declassified Review
Platforms: PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 (reviewed) You really do have to feel for The Bureau: XCOM Declassified. It suffered through such a tumultuous development, that it’s almost amazing it made it into the wild at all. Chris Plante over at Polygon wrote a really interesting piece about how it came to be in the […]
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Review
Platforms: Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 (reviewed) I’d have thought you crazy if you were to tell me that the same studio responsible for The Darkness and Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay was going to make a game that would affect me emotionally more than any other game released this year. Brothers: A […]
The Last of Us Review
Platform: Playstation 3 Sometimes a game comes along and takes my feelings about it on a rollercoaster ride. The Last of Us did that so much, that I very nearly stopped playing altogether a few times. I didn’t understand the hype and adoration it was getting. I really felt like I was missing something, but […]
Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Review
Platforms: PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 (reviewed) Blood Dragon is quite the sales pitch for Far Cry 3. While the first two Far Cry games didn’t do much that I felt like latching onto them, I never even gave the third entry a try. After putting in six or eight hours into Blood Dragon, I […]
Dragon Fantasy: Book One Review
Platforms: PC, Mac, iOS, Android, Playstation 3 (reviewed) and Playstation Vita (reviewed) If you tend to avoid iOS games, there’s a good chance you had never heard of Dragon Fantasy prior to it coming to PSN. Dragon Fantasy is a tribute, right down to its namesake, to older Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy (see what […]
Tomb Raider Review
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 (reviewed), Xbox One Note: This review only includes thoughts on the single player experience. Tomb Raider is a franchise that I’ve never been particularly fond of. I’ve played a few games in the series and they weren’t bad, but the tongue-in-cheek nature of […]
Germinator Review
Platforms: PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita (reviewed) Germinator is a “bubble puzzle” game that has you going room to room in your suburban house to rid it of the pesky germs that have taken over. Your goal is to clear each level of static black germs before they reach the top of the screen by using […]
Fortune Favors the Bold and Death Favors the Dumb
26 June 2015 – Guadalajara, Mexico I sent my team to stop alien abductions in a city I can barely pronounce. Fairly straightforward operation – touch down, wipe out the aliens, head back to base. Colonel Ruben “Richter” Marquez and Major Zahara “Pox” Manana took shots and were out of service for a few days. […]
Rock Band Blitz Review
Platforms: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 (reviewed) I’m a sucker for music games and Rock Band has long been my game of choice, but to say I was skeptical about Rock Band Blitz would be quite the understatement. Luckily, Blitz turns out to be a great game, but how much enjoyment you’ll get out of it […]
