Universe at War: Earth Assault Review

I finally finished Universe at War: Earth Assault this weekend. The single player campaign was a lot longer than I anticipated, but it was a lot of fun. The game’s graphics, especially during cut-scenes, are not that great, but they are not terrible. Since this is a real time strategy game the graphics don’t have […]

The Bourne Conspiracy Demo Impressions

I finally got around to trying The Bourne Conspiracy demo last night. It was an utter disappointment. I’m a big fan of all three of the Bourne movies and I had high hopes for the game. I probably should have thought that through and I would have had more realistic expectations. The graphics for the […]

I know … I know

I know … I know I’ve been promising a review of Universe at War: Earth Assault, but I’m still trying to finish the campaign. It is a lot longer than I thought. I think I’ve got about 3 missions left. Each of which could take an hour or two. So, hopefully later this week if […]

Here is a brief synopsis of the game from their viewpoint “Kings of Babylon (“KoB”), is a team-based, empire building wargame where you will start […]

Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 Title Update

When RS:V2 released there were a couple issues with achievements not unlocking properly. It is not the first game to have that issue. Most of the time issues like this are corrected in an update after 3 or maybe even 4 months. Ubisoft surprised me yesterday with an update to RS:V2 update that addresses these […]

Lost Cities Impressions

I also checked out Lost Cities today on Xbox Live Arcade. I generally don’t play a lot of board and card games on XBLA. It is not that I don’t like them, but there are just other types of games I prefer more. Lost Cities is pretty fun – not great, but still fun if […]

Rock and Bullwinkle Impressions

I decided to check out Rock and Bullwinkle on Xbox Live Arcade today. What a waste of time. This game is garbage. It is designed to be a party game with a Rock and Bullwinkle theme. Basically you have a lot of little games all in a row, but the games are so ridiculously short […]

Iron Man Demo Impressions

It has been a while since there was a demo on the Xbox Live Marketplace that I really cared to try. Normally games based on movies are not ones I’d bother checking out, but I’m a fan of the Iron Man comics and the new movie looks pretty good so I gave the demo a […]

Again … More RSV2

I started playing through the campaign of Universe at War: Earth Assault and am enjoying it so far. I’m only a few levels in but they definitely spent a lot of time thinking how a RTS could work with a controller because it handles nicely. Once I’ve played through more of the game I’ll get […]
