Review: Red Faction: Battlegrounds
After the success of the first three Red Faction titles, Red Faction: Battlegrounds released recently to tide fans over until the release of the fourth installment. However, Battlegrounds takes the series in another direction. Following the recent stream of twin-stick shooters, Battlegrounds is a twin-stick vehicular-combat game that plays more like a party game than […]
Review: Michael Jackson: The Experience (Kinect)
Michael Jackson is without a doubt one of the greatest performers of all time. Through the decades he’s released timeless songs everyone knows and moves everyone wishes they could replicate. With the release of the Kinect and success of Dance Central, who wouldn’t want a Michael Jackson dance game? The fun and execution of Dance Central fused with […]
Review: SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy SEALs
Regardless of some minor problems I mentioned above, the single-player provides an entertaining experience. There are a number of large shootouts throughout the 14 missions; something that might trouble previous SOCOM fans who wanted a stealth-shooter. I tend to look at the glass as half-full, though, and that is why the single-player can be enjoyed if […]
Review: Moon Diver
The highly anticipated Moon Diver, billed as the next Strider mostly due to Kouichi Yotsui’s involvement, is finally out. Its side-scrolling, hack-and-slash four-player gameplay breathes a whisper of this possibility to fans. Moon Diver follows a group of elite ninjas sent on a final mission to reclaim the planet from the brink of apocalypse. With […]

Saints Row IV: Re-Elected Review
Saint’s Row IV is back in a shiny new edition made for the next-gen platforms, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, titled Saints Row IV: Re-Elected, accompanying the Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell release. Being a port of the original game that came out on last generation systems a year ago, does Saints Row […]
Cubicity Review
Cubicity is simple game in both style and structure. While not the most innovative game, the allure of the game comes from coming to grips with its mechanics and using your wit and intellect to guide Seamus, the protagonist through this fun-looking 2D environment. There’s virtually nothing in the game in terms of story. […]
The Wolf Among Us: Episode 1 Faith Review
Telltale Games has given gamers quite a number of episodic games adapted from popular properties such as last year’s The Walking Dead. Their newest episodic title takes on DC Comic’s Vertigo’s Fables and provides a darker, grittier side of the fairy tales we grew to love as kids. Does the first episode in The Wolf […]
Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition Review
There are many RPG games out today that can keep you occupied for tens, sometimes even hundreds of hours. However, you’d be hard pressed to find the game that gives as much as Baldur’s Gate II: The Enhanced Edition. You could even argue that there is no game today that reaches the heights that this […]
Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON’T KNOW!! Review
Adventure Time has seen quite a number of browser games via the Cartoon Network website and two console/handheld titles since the cartoon has come out in 2010. We reviewed the first one, Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why’d You Steal Our Garbage?!, when it was released late 2012. It proved that the cartoon setting could […]
