I realize we’re still pretty early in 2011, in terms of game releases, with big titles like Gears of War 3 and Battlefield 3 still coming out, but I don’t see how a game can be better and more fun than Portal 2. It has the perfect mix of story, humor, challenge and mechanics.  I’m […]

I know you all hate me (I got the messages) but I got in the Gears of War 3 on Friday and have been really enjoying it. I’ve got my hands-on impressions up on VGrevolution at http://www.vgrevolution.com/2011/04/gears-ow-war-3-beta-impressions/ I’m not going to rehash it so head over there and check it out.

I never played the original Crysis because I did not play PC games much at the time it came out and my PC probably would not have been able to handle it. Since Crysis 2 came out for the Xbox 360 I figured I’d give it a try.  I played the multiplayer demo for Crysis […]

It was not long before Dragon Age II released that I played through Dragon Age: Origins and the Awakenings DLC. I’m glad that I essentially played them back to back because the little things that carry over from the first game to the second were more noticeable.  All the reference to things I did in […]

Homefront released this week. Actually, 2 days ago. I’ve already finished the campaign. No, I did not spend all night playing either.  It was something like 5 hours long and that was with a lot of dying on a few missions.  That is pretty short.  I would not mind the length really if it was […]

I have almost caught up on my gaming backlog form last year and I wanted to splay something different. I enjoyed the demo when I played it at E3 last year so I decided to rent Vanquish. I’m glad I rented it for a could reasons.  First, it was really fun and different from most […]

I finally got around to playing Dragon Age: Origins and the Awaking expansion over the last few weeks.  Frankly, by now everyone should have heard that it is an awesome game.  What made it so enjoyable for me was the story.  Sure, killing lots of enemies as my Human Mage was fun, but really what […]

I enjoyed the previous Lego Star Wars games as well as Lego Batman and Indian Jones so I figured the new Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars demo should be pretty fun. Either I’ve gotten dumber or the puzzles are less obvious this time around.  More than once I had to walk around looking […]

I played both Fable and Fable II, and while neither was my favorite game ever I enjoyed playing through them. Fable III started off pretty similarly but the longer I played the more thing I found myself annoyed with. You play as the Prince of Albion. You are the son of the character you played […]

It is not very often that I play four different demos in the same day, but that is how Tuesday panned out.  On the PC, Magicka released and I’ve been looking forward to it for quite a while now. I promised myself after all the holiday Steam sales I would not by any new games […]
