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.

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 […]

Sound Shapes Review

Platforms: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 (reviewed), PlayStation Vita (reviewed) Sound Shapes is an interesting take on the rhythm game. Instead of matching notes on a plastic instrument you’ll be platforming through various levels grabbing coins and collectibles in order to change the music. In a way, it is a bit like the Bit Trip Runner […]
