Section 8 has been on my radar since E3 when I saw the video showing the “burn in” spawns where you can choose anywhere to spawn on the map. My plan to play Section 8 was further confirmed when TimeGate announced that Section 8 would support 32 player matches on privately hosted dedicated servers.  So, […]

Just a week ago Defense Grid: The Awakening released on Xbox Live Arcade and I’ve been loving it. I finally completed the main campaign but I still need to do the four expansion levels. This is in addition to the 60 challenge levels I still have to work through. If you remember my initial demo […]

I really enjoyed playing as […]

Tom Clancy’s HAWX (Xbox 360) Review

I rented Tom Clancy’s HAWX on Thursday afternoon and finished the last mission Sunday afternoon.  All 20 missions took me around 9 hours and that was with replaying a couple of the missions over and over.  I’m really not that great at flying games but I liked that HAWX has options to help assist inexperienced […]

Section 8 (Xbox 360) Demo Impressions

I’ve been interested in Section 8 since I first saw this trailer during E3. The game play looks a little like Tribes 2 which I loved in college, but with updated graphics. I played 6 or 7 games this afternoon and had a good time with it.  The demo is multiplayer focused and they give […]

My plan was to play Overlord II but apparently I was not pay attention and I rented Overlord Dark Legend for the Nintendo Wii instead. Fortunately a couple people pointed out that it has a different story line and I decided to check it out. I’m assuming that Overlord Dark Legend is the version for […]
