Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End Demo Review

Even though games based on movies generally suck I decided to give the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End Demo a try last night. To start off with the level is longer than I expected in a demo. It was a pretty respectable length. I think I played it somewhere around 15 or 20 […]

There is something about first person shooters and alien invasions that just go together. Blacksite: Area 51’s developers know this and have built the game around it.

With the dashboard update and the Forza 2 demo getting released I almost forgot about the Xbox Live Arcade yesterday. Fortunately, I remembered it in time to check out Double Dragon.
