MLB 2K10 - ReviewMajor League Baseball 2K10 is this year’s iteration of 2K Sports annual baseball title. This year they really focused on the battle that takes place between the hitter and the pitcher and, in this aspect, they really succeeded. The tension is definitely there whether you are trying hit it out of the park or you are on the other side trying to hold off the opposing...by Brandon Hofer at March 9th, 2010 at 06:03 pm
Lazy Raiders - ReviewLazy Raiders recently hit Xbox Live bringing a pretty unique twist to a game filled with platforming action and puzzles. In Lazy Raiders you can either play as Dr. Diggabone or as your very own Avatar. The premise of the story is that Dr. Diggabone is on a quest to retrieve 16 Lost Relics that will give him instant fortune and glory. There are eighty levels that...by Brandon Hofer at March 6th, 2010 at 05:03 pm-
Gaming for the Adrenalin JunkieExperience the rush of reaching a final table at a major poker tournament, where the prize money reaches 6 figures and you need nerves of steel to keep your cool. Certainly not for the faint-hearted when your own money is at stake. Poker games for all kinds of players from experienced pros to beginners starting out on a new adventure. 
Toy Soldiers - ReviewWith World War II being effectively strip-mined for game content and ideas, it’s always struck me as a bit strange that we’ve never seen a decent World War 1 game. Sure, there have been those nerdy stats-heavy “proper” war games, and a couple of completely unmemorable RTS games – but action-based WW1 titles are extremely thin on the ground. I got rather excited...by pjmaybe at March 5th, 2010 at 02:03 pm
Battlefield Bad Company 2 - ReviewThe boys of Bad Company are back for another adventure and DICE has improved upon the original Bad Company title in almost every way. The game is absolutely beautiful and the campaign has pretty good variety ensuring that you won’t get bored on your journey. The multiplayer is fantastic with a variety of different modes to keep you busy for a long time. Additionally,...by Brandon Hofer at March 2nd, 2010 at 08:03 pm
Darwinia+ - ReviewDeep within an undulating neon landscape, a grim fight for survival takes place. Defenseless artificial constructs are being torn apart by an insidious virus. The “father” of these constructs stands by helpless, as they are brutally slain. This is where you come in. He needs your help badly. Darwinia first hit the PC a few years ago, and it’s quite a shock that it...by pjmaybe at February 25th, 2010 at 05:02 pm
Chime - ReviewIn the back of a noisy club, a bunch of Cheeto-eating stoners are adopting the primary pose of “The Chillout Room”. Arranged in a series of semi-natural shapes, throbbing space cadets nod their heads in silent reverie to a collection of tripped-out ambient tunes from the likes of Philip Glass, Moby, Paul Hartnoll, Markus Schulz and Fred Deakin. Shapes enter their blank...by pjmaybe at February 22nd, 2010 at 02:02 pm
Dante’s Inferno - ReviewDante’s Inferno is loosely based on the 14th century poem, The Divine Comedy. The Divine Comedy is composed of more than 14,000 lines and it is divided into three parts - Inferno (Hell), Purgatorio (Purgatory), and Paradiso (Paradise). The game starts you out fighting Death himself followed by you returning home only to find out that Beatrice (the love of your...by Brandon Hofer at February 19th, 2010 at 03:02 pm
Bioshock 2 - ReviewWhen Bioshock 2 was first announced I let out a groan of dismay. There was absolutely no reason to provide a sequel to Bioshock 1. It stands as a superbly paced and immersive game that doesn’t need any further embellishment at all. Only…well, it’s virtually impossible to resist the lure of a return visit to Rapture. As rusting leaky crumbling undersea dystopias...by pjmaybe at February 12th, 2010 at 02:02 pm
Mass Effect 2 - ReviewMass Effect 2 is the newest epic from Bioware and the continuation of a very promising series. Bioware has promised for a long time that consequences do indeed matter in the universe of Mass Effect. Your actions during the first title could have profound implications on the sequel which would then carry over to the third title in the trilogy. Immediately upon starting...by Brandon Hofer at January 26th, 2010 at 12:01 am
Matt Hazard: Blood Bath & Beyond - ReviewIn a follow up to the full retail release of its predecessor, Matt Hazard Blood Bath and Beyond follows Matt Hazard once again as he attempts to save the world. If you like side scrolling shooters in the vein of Contra then you will probably enjoy this title, despite some of the problems. As one would expect, since this is now a XBLA title, the production values went down...by Brandon Hofer at January 21st, 2010 at 11:01 pm
