Review: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II (X360)
One of the fundamental differences I have with my wife stems from Star Wars; she is forever drawn to the Dark Side of the Force, while I am a Jedi, like my father before me. With Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II, the choice of how you use the Force to battle the Empire has no bearing whatsoever on your character’s alignment, in much the same way that it had no bearing in the first Star Wars...[Read More]
Review: True Grit
I love westerns. I love the Coen brothers. That's why I had such high expectations for True Grit, the remake of the John Wayne classic. Well, all my expectations were answered, and True Grit was my favorite movie of the year.
Weekly Retro Review: Legacy of Kain Series
Lots of things have happened since my last review. Relaunched site, Christmas, New Year’s. It can be a bit hectic. But we’re kicking off 2011 right, so let’s go with a bang! And I can’t think of a better bang than one of the best game series that seems to not be as well-known as it should. That’s right, I’m talking the Legacy of Kain!
Review: KontrolFreek
As a gift for Christmas, I received a pair of FPS Freeks from KontrolFreek. In case you are unfamiliar with KontrolFreek products, the company claims they “are designed to elevate your gaming experience, by improving your performance while reducing fatigue” and “carefully engineered to reduce force inputs while increasing player comfort, helping you improve your accuracy and decr...[Read More]
Review: Black Swan
As a longtime fan of director Darren Aronofsky’s work, I was really looking forward to Black Swan. To this day I’m a firm believer that high school classes should be shown Requiem for a Dream when they have to sit through “drug awareness week” because that film is a real eye opener. Like all of Aronofsky’s films, Black Swan is beautifully done. It’s filled with ...[Read More]
Review: Quake Arena Arcade (XBLA)
Earlier this month I gushed about my undying love for Quake. Well guess how excited I was when I got to actually play Quake Arena Arcade…ridiculously excited. Quake, whether you care to admit it or not, is an iconic game so it was great to see some old school love on the 360.
Review: A World of Keflings (XBLA)
For months I’ve been hyped for A World of Keflings, and today is the day where everybody can experience bliss for only 800 Microsoft Points. That’s right. This game is pure, enjoyable bliss. I suppose I could end my review right there, but I would be doing the game, and NinjaBee, a great disservice, so tighten those seat-belts kiddos because we’re going on a ride.
Review: Zumba Fitness (Wii)
Not that long ago Zumba Fitness arrived on our doorstep. I’ve been wanting to get my hands on this game for months but when it came, I was sick so I had to wait until I was ready to get up and shake my moneymaker. After playing the game for about a week, I can tell you one thing: Zumba Fitness is unlike any other dance/exercise game out there.
Review: Sonic Colors (Wii)
When Sega announced Sonic Colors, I was so excited. Unlike a lot of gamers, I really enjoyed Sonic Unleashed, since it was the first step in the right direction for the Blue Blur. Granted, that was because I had the PS3 version, which was a lot better than the Wii version (uneven amount of levels where you could play Sonic as opposed to the Werehog). In fact, every trailer for Sonic Colors has mad...[Read More]
Review: Worms: Battle Islands (PSP)
Worms, on the go? Now we're talking!
Product Review: Dazzle Video Creator Plus HD
Last week, I received a Best Buy gift card for Christmas from my grandfather. After walking around Best Buy for what felt like hours, having no clue what to get, we ended up purchasing the Dazzle Video Creator Plus HD.
Review: Where’s Waldo in Hollywood (iP)
We all remember Waldo from out childhood. His colorful books made it look like we were actually participating during reading time in primary school. Now he’s got a game for iOS devices that will help us look like we are taking notes during that busy office meeting. Where’s Waldo in Hollywood is your new favorite finder.
