Underrated Game of the Month: Goldeneye Rogue Agent

Like car keys, stray dogs and socks after you put them in the dryer, some video games simply get lost in the shuffle.  Sometimes they were just released at the wrong time, eclipsed by a much bigger game, or a surprise chart topper.  Sometimes they just had bad marketing, or too many misconceived ideas about the game spread by word […]

Review: Duke Nukem Forever

Duke Nukem Forever quickly became one of the most ironic names in video game history.  Over the last twelve years the game had been premiered, cancelled, premiered again and shelved more times than many of us can remember.  So it was a big surprise when Gearbox announced they had purchased the rights to Duke Nukem from 3D Realms and premiered […]

Review: Dead Space 2

Having spawned a total of four games over three consoles, two full length animated films, a full length novel, graphic novels, and a rumored feature length film in production, the Dead Space franchise has done well for itself.  In terms of the games, Dead Space and Dead Space Extraction have received largely positive press.  Additionally, Dead Space 2 performed better […]

Review: The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings (PC) – Giving Away a Digital Copy!

Holy crapping crap, crapping some bricks!  This pretty much sums up my experiences playing The Witcher 2 thus far.  This game is absolutely downright amazing all across the board.  Frankly I haven’t been this excited about playing an RPG since Lost Odyssey a very long time ago, and I can say that I like it a lot more.  From character […]

Like lost toys, the half a pizza with pineapple and children on a field trip without a buddy, some video games simply get left behind.  Sometimes they were just released at the wrong time, eclipsed by a much bigger game or a surprise chart topper.  Sometimes they just had bad marketing, or too many misconceived ideas about the game spread […]

Review: Star Raiders

Atari continues the year of the classic remake (still working on a more clever title) with their latest old school game to get a modern make over; Star Raiders.  Much like their previous efforts, Yar’s Revenge, Star Raiders didn’t have a whole lot of source material in the 8 bit original to inspire the remake and this of course has […]

Review: Splinter Cell Conviction

In the wake of certain recent super-secret special-ops/CIA missions that have taken place this week, it seemed fitting to take a few minutes and talk about one of the best special-ops kind of franchises in gaming. With Splinter Cell Conviction, Ubisoft took a bit of a gamble.  They took a beloved franchise and changed it up.  Notoriously gamers respond bad […]

Review: Alan Wake (Including DLC)

When Remedy released their dark, moody game based on a dark, moody writer by the name of Alan Wake, the game was outshined by a little game called Red Dead Redemption on the sales charts. Many have argued this is in fact the reason for Alan Wake’s less than amazing sales, and they may have an argument there, but other […]

Review: Yar’s Revenge

Lately I’ve often joked that we are living in the age of retro remakes and reboots. Thanks to the rise of the digital mediums like Steam, XBLA and PSN more and more companies are returning to classic IP’s that haven’t seen the light of day in decades, retooling and in many cases completely reinventing these games as small bite sized […]
