Review: Zuma’s Revenge (XBLA)
PopCap has a natural knack for developing games that make me lose track of time. Take this review, for example. I gave myself an hour to write the review for Zuma’s Revenge before recording a late night podcast, and decided to take a few minutes to capture some gameplay. Before I knew it, those few minutes had turned into over half an hour. Luckily our podcast started late. This is the stren...[Read More]
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance – Tutorial Gameplay
I’m not a huge fan of the Metal Gear Solid series. I can appreciate it for what it is, but the gameplay itself is just not my preferred style. I never thought I’d find myself excited for a Metal Gear game, to be honest. Then I heard that Platinum Games was helming the next Metal Gear, titled Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, and a spark of interest lit within me. Platinum Games is curren...[Read More]

Review: Wreckateer (XBLA)
To be honest, I was less than enthused about Wreckateer in the lead-up to this year’s XBLA Summer of Arcade promotion. I hadn’t had the opportunity to play it hands-on anywhere, and it sounded like a rehash of Angry Birds with castles and goblins instead of birds and pigs. I hate Angry Birds. I seriously saw Angry Birds branded Cheese Nips at the grocery store last night, and they were...[Read More]
Review: Spec Ops: The Line (360/PS3)
Aside from the week I spent without power due to the storm that hit the east coast recently, I’ve been playing a lot of Spec Ops: The Line. Developed by Yager and published by 2K Games, Spec Ops: The Line is a third-person shooter that brings a new story to the Spec Ops games. After playing the demo, I wasn’t sure if this would be one of the top games of its genre. I felt like I was pl...[Read More]
Review: Jeremy McGrath’s Offroad (XBLA)
I’ve been getting more and more into the racing genre lately, because it offers a fun way of spending time playing with friends. Hey, there’s nothing quite like being a douche and crashing into your friend just to throw him off of a perfect lap, right? Yes, I do play a bit dirty when it comes to racing, but in the end it’s all about the fun that you and your friends are having. R...[Read More]

New Legends of Pegasus Trailer Released
A while back, I got to see an early build of the upcoming Legends of Pegasus from Kalypso Media, and I was amazed at what I had experienced. Of course, as I just said, it was an early build so we couldn’t play the game. Since then, though, trailers have been releasing on a semi-regular basis, giving us a good look at what to expect. Have you ever wanted to travel space and take part in epic ...[Read More]

Ready to Rock? Rock Band Blitz Release Date Announced
Earlier this year, at PAX East, I had the opportunity to play a bit of Rock Band Blitz, and let me tell you, it was pretty bad ass. It was easily one of those games that I just couldn’t wait to play again. After waiting, and waiting, and WAITING, Harmonix has finally announced the release date and pricing for Rock Band Blitz, previously scheduled for “Summer 2012.” Do you remembe...[Read More]
