Torchlight Review

Having spent the last two weeks playing Torchlight exclusively I figured I should finally put a full review together. I covered a lot of the basics of the game in my initial impressions so I’m not going to go over all that again.  For my first playthrough I went as an Alchemist mostly focused on […]

Indie Games: Platypus, Twin Blades, PIXEL and Battle Beat

I’ve been away from my Xbox 360 for a couple weeks so I spent today playing catch up with the Xbox Live Indie Game Channel.  As usual there were a lot of games that had potential, but needed more work. However, I did come across four really well made titles that I’m really enjoying. Twin […]

Overlord II Review

I started and finished Overlord 2 last week. It was roughly 10 hours long with me taking the time to grind out as many of the achievements as possible with one playthrough. If you played the first Overlord you pretty much know what to expect.  It is an action-adventure title where you play as an […]

Assassin’s Creed 2 Review

After some discussion on whether or not I should play Assassin’s Creed before playing Assassin’s Creed II I decided to just go ahead and play the sequel and skip the first one.  I’ve finished the game and have 48 out of 50 of the achievements now. My save game is right at 30 hours. Since […]

Borderlands: The Zombie Island of Dr Ned Review

Since I can’t actually play Borderlands right now I wrote up my review of the new DLC, The Zombie Island of Dr Ned, on my lunch break.  I’ve played through Zombie Island almost two complete times since it released last Tuesday, and I’ve really enjoyed it.  The second time was on Playthrough 2 so it […]

Bayonetta First Climax Demo Impressions

I got early access to the Bayonetta demo for the Xbox 360 today. I’m not really a fan of this style of combo driven fighting game (think Devil May Cry – which was not really my thing), but I can’t turn down the chance to try a game early.  I started the Bayonetta: First Climax […]

Borderlands (Xbox 360) Review

I’ve been playing Borderlands 2 or 3 nights a week with a group of guys and really enjoying it.  I think we’re about 2/3 of the way through the story currently but I’m not 10o% sure on that.  I’ve been writing my review of Borderlands for a few days now and I finally got it […]

Torchlight Demo Impressions

After hearing seen everyone raving about Torchlight for the last week I decided to give the demo a try when I saw how low the system requirements are.  My home PC is about 3 years old, but it has no trouble running the game with everything set to high. Yet, despite the low system requirements […]

Batman: Arkham Asylum Review

I know Batman: Arkham Asylum released over two months ago, but I just now finally got around to playing through it. The game is awesome and I should have gotten to it sooner but since there is no multiplayer component I just did not feel the rush. However, once I started playing I found it […]

Sol Survivor Review

I’ve been playing the single player campaign for Sol Survivor for over a week now and this weekend I got to spend some time playing the verses and co-op modes. I have seen a lot of people comparing Sol Survivor to Defense Grid (which I loved), but really I do not think it is fair […]
