Player’s Pack Red Edition for Rainbow Six: Vegas Reviewed

After some delays, the Player’s Pack Red Edition for Rainbow Six: Vegas was released Wednesday. The pack contains 5 new maps and 2 new game modes. At 800 points,$10, I think this is a must buy for any who plays Rainbow Six: Vegas regularly. Give that Halo 2 charged $2 a map recently, with no […]

3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures Review

I decided to check out 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures despite the fact the last golf game I played, Tiger Woods 07, had me swearing like a sailor (no offense to any sailors reading this). Fortunately, they kept the controls nice and simple. All you have to control is the angle of the hit and the […]

Gyruss Mini Review

I decided to set aside my anti-retro bias and give Gyruss a try today. Gyruss is essentially a Galaga clone. The only real difference is that instead of moving along the bottom you move in a circle around the edge facing the middle of the screen. Like Galaga waves of enemies come on screen and […]

Desktop Tower Defense Review

Generally I’m not a big fan of Flash based web games. I prefer to play games with a controller sitting on my couch, but when I heard the guys from DL.tv mention how much fun Desktop Tower Defense (DTD) was I thought I’d give it a try. Now that I’ve been playing it for a […]

Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia Demo Review

For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to download the Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia Demo that was released yesterday. I figured since it was a free demo I’d give it a try. Now that I tried it I wish I had not wasted my time. I knew going into it […]

Boom Boom Rocket Mini-Review

Boom Boom Rocket was released on Xbox Live Arcade today. I took some time to check it out this morning. Boom Boom Rocket is pretty much Dance Dance Revolution played with a controller. All of the button presses are timed to the beats of the music so if you have no rhythm this one might […]

Tetris Evolution Review

Despite my complaints with Tetris Evolution I ended up renting it because my wife is a big fan of Tetris. We played for a while the other night and the game itself plays fine. I’ve heard some people complaining about the 360 controller not working well for Tetris, but I did not have any issues […]

Battlestar Galactica Season 3 Review

*** Spoiler Alert *** Season 3 of Battlestar Galactica is really split into four parts. For the first portion of the season the remnants of the human race are mostly on New Caprica trying to free themselves from Cylon oppression. There are a few humans on the fleet’s ships who got away and are trying […]

Luxor 2 Mini Review

I heard somewhere this game is what spawned the idea for Zuma. I’m not sure it it is true or not, but I like Zuma so I was looking forward to Luxor 2. I’m not that great at Zuma (I’ve never completely beat the whole game) so I was a little concerned Luxor 2 would […]
