Review: Knack (PS4)
With the release of the PS4, a new IP is introduced. That new IP is Knack. With its simplistic gameplay, Knack makes it easy for any player to learn the game’s core mechanic. At the same time its difficult keeps the player entertained and attentive. While Knack does show off the graphical and processing power of the PS4, its story has an uneven tone and a plot that might leave gamers wonderi...[Read More]

Preview: LittleBigPlanet (Vita)
Prior to this past weekend, I had never really played any of the LittleBigPlanet titles. I was always curious, of course, but for one reason or another, I never acted on that curiosity. I have now spent the last five days playing, re-playing, and creating my way through a preview version of LittleBigPlanet on my PS Vita, and I find myself eagerly anticipating its full release next month. The PlayS...[Read More]
Review: The Amazing Spider-Man
When Sony announced that they’d reboot Marvel’s biggest film franchise (at least, Marvel’s biggest film franchise before The Avengers came out), fans were divided. Some thought it was a cheap cash-in, and have hoped for its failure so that the rights would revert to Marvel in order for it to be tied to the Avengers. Others have hoped for a film closer to their idea of Spidey as o...[Read More]
New trailer for “Amazing Spider-Man” raises new questions
It just goes to show that I should have done Spidey-Month later so I could tie this in.
Review: TriOviz INFICOLOR 3D Glasses
The most recent entertainment buzzword has been “3D.” From the movie theater to the home, 3D has become more and more prevalent, with major marketing pushes across multiple demographics. Sony’s big push at last year’s E3 was 3D, introducing an entire 3D hardware package including glasses, a screen, and more. Games and movies have been pushing 3D more and more. 3D is now ava...[Read More]
Review: Dungeon Hunter: Alliance (Vita)
Dungeon Hunter: Alliance isn’t a new game. Playstation Network has had it available for nearly a year, and Mac users have had it for nearly as long. Given that, it makes judging Dungeon Hunter on Vita difficult, especially when staring at a $40 price tag. The system is screaming for an RPG, and a game in the vein of Diablo should be a no brainer. Sadly, anyone that plunks down the money for Dungeo...[Read More]
Review: Uncharted: Golden Abyss (Vita)
There is a lot riding on Uncharted: Golden Abyss. Not only is it from Bend Studios, the first outside of Naughty Dog to tackle the series, but it is tasked with proving that the Vita can deliver a console size experience. After three entries, there are certain cornerstones of Uncharted; namely, the wit and humor, ancient ruins, cinema quality action sequences, and mass murder. For the most part, U...[Read More]
Rumor: Microsoft Goes After Used Games
Earlier this week Kotaku reported on as of yet unconfirmed rumors that the next Xbox console will lock-out used games. For many, this seemed like a dramatic and, ultimately, unfair gesture that will hamper many people’s enthusiasm and support for the next generation.
Gaming and Giving – An Inspiration Like No Other
I’ve been gaming since around the age of five, and up until last November I thought I had achieved some of the most rewarding and inspiring moments of my gaming life: catching ’em all the first time, vanquishing Ganon for the first time, the list goes on. But something happened over the course of 48 hours from November 19 to November 21 that easily put all of those achievements to sham...[Read More]
E3 2011: First Glance at the Wii U
Nintendo pulled a slightly expected fast one on the crowds of people at 2011 E3. In the chaotic mess of E3, through the thousands of people swarming around, and the hundreds of games being presented, there was new hardware being presented, only one year later after Nintendo announced their new handheld, the 3DS. The Wii U, the next generation unit from Nintendo, was announced this year to the publ...[Read More]
