Dexter Season 5 Finale Impressions
First off, if you haven’t watched season 5 of Dexter then stop reading. There will be spoilers. Instead, go read the Assassin’s Creed:Brotherhood review or the review for Bakery Story for the iPhone. Savvy mate? Alright, if you have seen then let us continue. Last night was the season finale to Dexter’s fifth season and, in my honest opinion, I found it to be rather disappointing...[Read More]
Review: Decimation X3 (XBLI)
I love old games. I generally dislike attempts at remaking old games, or reusing the mechanic of old games, because it is hardly ever an improvement on the memory and feel of the original game. Incidentally, I feel the same about TV shows and movies, but that’s off topic. Back on topic, a simple, classic game like Space Invaders is not the kind of game I would expect to be remade with any si...[Read More]
Review: Infinity Blade (iOS)
Every now and then a platform is graced with a game that pushes the boundaries of what people thought it possible of. Infinity Blade is that game for iOS. Developed by Chair Entertainment, the same group that gave us the critically acclaimed XBLA games Undertow and Shadow Complex, Infinity Blade makes use of Epic Games’ Unreal engine to bring what is sure to be a memorable gaming experience ...[Read More]
Review: The Amazing Race (iOS)
Recently Ludia and CBS Mobile released The Amazing Race, a game based off of the popular television show of the same name, for iOS devices. We were fortunate to get our hands on the iPhone version, and as a person who has never watched an episode of the TV show, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect.
Review: Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood (360)
Earlier this year, I began playing the first Assassin’s Creed. I completely fell in love with Altaïr, and even though I never completed the game (only because it became a bit too tedious and I had other things to play), I have only fond things to say of it. Despite the fact that we own AC II, I have yet to play a second of it. So why did I completely play through Brotherhood not knowing anyt...[Read More]
Review: ArcaniA – Gothic 4 (Steam)
When writing a review, you’ll name-drop the game in question multiple times. If the title is less than catchy, you’ll abbreviate. For example, I’ll happily review “Fallout”, but wouldn’t touch “World of Warcraft” with a really long pole that’s used for barging. “WoW”, however, is a different story. Anyway, I’m reviewing ArcaniA – Gothic 4, but which is it to be? ArcaniA, or Gothic 4? Right now, yo...[Read More]

Review: The Walking Dead “TS-19?
The first season of The Walking Dead ends with a bang.
Review: The Simpsons “The Fight Before Christmas”
The Simpsons give us an early Christmas present.
Review: LUXOR 5th Passage (PC)
Last month, LUXOR fans were delighted when MumboJumbo Games released their latest installment in the franchise, and for good reason; LUXOR 5th Passage is a ton of fun.
Weekly Retro Review: Jet Li’s Rise to Honor
Martial arts are such a dividing topic. Is it for offense or defense? Should it involve grappling, kicking, and punching? Should it simply defeat your opponent, handicap him, or even kill him? One reason we all know martial arts is because of the movies, especially those from Hong Kong. With the Peking Opera’s style ending up in film, we had a few decent classics, but they were a niche marke...[Read More]
Review: Kick Ass (PS3)
Recently, I had the privilege of sitting down in front of my TV, curled up in a ball with my delicious Starbucks and kicking ass on Kick Ass. After several levels of gameplay, some curse words, and lots of dead enemies, I present to you: my thoughts on Kick Ass’ addition to the PlayStation Network!
