Assassin’s Creed seems like an exercise in copying from as many games as possible. It’s like they said “Hey, let’s take the sympathetic mass murderer main character idea from God of War, the sandbox concept from GTA and, oh yeah, the completely obvious twist ending from Crackdown.” Though they don’t seem to have ever admitted […]

My birthday is in November. While I attempt to save money to upgrade my PC, a shit ton of games release at the same time. This year, I couldn’t hold my cash in my pocket any longer. I spent it. Since I did, I can tell you something about all the big releases. So I […]

So, after Josh BLATENTLY called me out, I’ve decided to throw down my impressions of Mass Effect.  I intend to keep this short, as I have to get my pre-Thanksgiving stomach distention on, if that made any sense…  Anyhow.  I’m REALLY enjoying this game.  I’ve been told it’s better than KOTOR (Knights of the Old Republic for […]

Need for Speed, ugh.  I don’t know what happened to Need for Speed: Pro Street, but the demo was garbage.  I’ve always been a bit of a fanboy, defending myself when all the haters would bash the series.  But EA has crushed my love of the series.  I cried myself to sleep the night I […]

OK. I’m actually still playing it. I took baby steps to get to that level where I’m not bothered with online kids teabagging me- because I’m the one doing the teabagging.

I’ll be the first to admit it. I succumbed to the Halo 3 hype sirens. Their song was enticing. What can I say? Forge sounded delicious and I needed something to beat away the loneliness of sitting around in my parents’ house on a Friday night. So I went and pre ordered the game and […]

I’m here to tell you that within less than a month, Halo 3 was dethroned as the king of multiplayer. The sad thing is, it had no idea whatsoever. Team Fortress 2, with its 9 character classes and witty dialogue, wipes the floor with Halo 3. There’s so much more to a game that […]

Guitar Hero is a dandy little game. Full of good times and lots of rockin’. While I love me some Guitar Hero was it worth it to buy Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground for a 5 song demo? The short answer is yes! FUCK YES!
I heard that some unscrupulous knaves […]

Bioshock, the number one game in the first-person-shooter-about-a-guy-who-crash-lands-into-a-crumbling-underwater-utopia genre, has come and gone. Since Josh won’t shut the fuck up about me writing something, I guess I’m here to give my opinion about it.
To put it simply, it’s rad. Totally rad. The game’s unified art direction, brilliant storytelling and unique combat really make it interesting. […]
