Earlier this week rumors were circulating around the internet that Microsoft would be making a big announcement this week. The announcement turned out to be the release of Pac-Man Championship Edition. The rumors should have been that an previously unannounced game was going to be released because this does not warrant the “big announcement” category. […]

Now that the Halo 3 Beta has been out for a couple weeks I wanted to get everyone’s thoughts on if buying Crackdown was worth it. Personally, I’m happy with my decision to rent Crackdown. I don’t really have a desire to play it now that I beat it (although I may check out the […]

I want to start by thanking Nintendo for making Mario popular. If it were not for Super Mario Brothers back on the NES action/adventure platformers may have never evolved to the level they are today. However, since they did we have games like SHReK the THiRD. Normally I would not be interested in kids games […]

When I saw on Wednesday there was a FPS demo out I immediately downloaded it because I was looking for something new to play. After playing the Hour of Victory demo yesterday I just hope the demo is a very early build of the game because it sucked. Before I get to the suckyness there […]

I’m not sure why I thought I should try the demo for DiRT. After trying the Forza 2 demo I was very quickly reminded of how badly I suck at racing games. I gave the DiRT demo a try anyway and found that I’m better at it than I am at Forza 2. I can […]

Most weeks when new Xbox Live Arcade games are released you’ll find a mini review here, on my blog, about them within a day or two. This week I’m not going to be reviewing either Xevious or Rush’n Attack because I could not make myself play either one of them long enough to be able […]

I wanted to take a minute and mention AdultGamingEnthusiasts.com to everyone. The site is focussed around bring adult gamers together in a place where they can discuss games and organize groups of adult gamers to play together.
