Guess who is bringing Suda 51’s latest insanity to the west? Why yes, it is Warner Bros. I see you can read headlines.
Halo Anniversary Gets Terminals
November 15th can’t come fast enough for us Halo fans. Almost like Master Chief himself was having a homecoming celebration from being lost in space, the original badass comes to the Xbox 360. It’s a tall order to fill, but the new Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary looks absolutely stunning. It’s amazing what a new coat of paint can do for a game, while releasing an HD remake is certainly not groun...[Read More]

Bankai, Quincy and Hollows: A Primer for Bleach
Tite Kubo’s Bleach is one of the most popular anime in the world right now. And as it’s an urban fantasy/action adventure, it has a lot of terms and ideas that can be confusing for new people. Since a lot of you may not be up to date on the anime, and with the game coming out in just over a week, here’s your chance to learn about a ton of things that pertain to this universe.
Review: Limbo (PSN)
There are times when you can sum up a game in one sentence. This is one of those times. If there is one thing to be said about Limbo, it is this. This game is art.
Driver: San Francisco Multiplayer Trailer
If you care enough to pay attention to anything I have to say, you will be well aware of my level of excitement for Ubisoft’s upcoming revitalization of the Driver series, Driver: San Francisco. I’ve had my hands on it twice since May, and am simply jittery with anticipation for August 30th September 6th (another week of waiting). To torture me further, Ubisoft has felt it necessary to...[Read More]
Review: Child of Eden (360)
Dull, drab, mundane: three words that don’t describe Child of Eden in the slightest. On the contrary, Tetsuya Mizuguchi and the rest at Q Entertainment deliver a stunning audiovisual experience with a wide spectrum of colors that would make any rainbow jealous, and music that is so heart-pumping that a raver would feel at home.

Review: Captain America: Super Soldier (360)
Some movie-based video games seek to recreate the plot of the movie itself, which I feel is dangerous ground to tread. Some tell a story completely separate from the movie, which, as long as it doesn’t contradict the movie it’s based on, can be good. Some tell a story that bridges the gap between one movie and another, which can provide a great deal of fill-in, which is always entertai...[Read More]
Review: From Dust (XBLA)
2011’s Xbox LIVE Summer of Arcade had a strong opening last week with Bastion. Tomorrow, the second entry in this year’s Summer of Arcade goes live: From Dust, Ubisoft’s “spiritual heir” to Populous. Created by Eric Chahi, creator of early 90s classic Out of This World, From Dust is at its core a strategy/puzzle game, solved by using a first-person god-like perspectiv...[Read More]
I Left My Heart In Monteriggioni
2009 was a pretty horrible year for me. In the course of one weekend I managed to lose my entire family. One was through death, and the others were through a reason I won’t get into, but it was beyond my control and completely blindsided me. To then be only 26 and have no family, no identity… it shocked me to the core. To this day I don’t think I have fully recovered from it, as ...[Read More]
