Fez is Amazing

For the few of you who have not tried Fez yet on Xbox Live Arcade you really should. It is one of the most interesting puzzle platformers I have ever played.  I have a full review up on XBLAratings.com here, but I almost think it is better to go into it not knowing about the […]

Full House Poker Review

I’ve been playing Full House Poker for almost two weeks now and I’m thoroughly hooked. I was able to get a review copy for XBLA Ratings (full review here) and I was not really expecting much from a poker game. I was pleasantly surprised with how much fun the Texas Heat game show portion is.  […]

Stacking Impressions

I picked up Stacking when it release last week and have been having a good time with the mix of adventure and puzzle genres. The actual story can be finished in about 5 hours without too much trouble, but going back and finding every solution for each challenge is taking much longer.  So far no […]

Demos: Magicka, Bulletstorm, Crysis 2 & Breach

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 […]
