Turok Demo Impressions

I played the demo for Turok this weekend that is on the OXM demo disk this month. Going into it I was expecting another run of the mill shooter with a dinosaur theme. I’ve been underwhelmed by the shooter demos I’ve played recently so I did not have my hopes very high. I was pleasantly […]

Exclusive Rock Band Tracks From OXM

I’m not going to make it a habit of reviewing songs from Rock Band, but I thought i was interesting that Official Xbox Magazine got three exclusive songs for Rock Band on their demo disc this month. I’ve mentioned it in the past, but every time I think about not renewing my OXM subscription they […]

Portal Easter Egg Video (spoilers)

I came across this video from Portal today. I really enjoyed portal (and the rest of The Orange Box), but I had not heard about an alternate endings. Apparently there is one. Here is the video of how to get to it: Has anyone tried this? I always wondered it there was a way to […]

Rock Band Review

I’ve been meaning to write this review for over a week, and every time I have some spare time I end up playing instead. It turns out that works in my favor for this review because I’ve spent a lot more time with Rock Band in the last week. To start off with, yes, I […]

Blacksite: Area 51 Review

I finished the campaign for Blacksite: Area 51 last week and spent a little time with the multiplayer. I had fun playing the campaign. It was not the best first person shooter I’ve played by any means, but it was fun. The environments were mostly destructible which leads to some fun tactics like shooting at […]

Spider-Man: Friend or Foe Impressions

I’ve been playing Spider-Man Friend or Foe for a few days now and I figured I’d post a few quick thoughts about it. It is not quite a button masher, but it is pretty close. The only thing stopping it from being a button masher is that there are some cool combos that work only […]

Guitar Hero III Downloadable Content

I know I’ve not had a good review or rant recently, but I’m still playing the same games I have been for the last few weeks; Halo 3, Team Fortress 2, and Guitar Hero III. I did however download the Foo Fighters and Velvet Revolver Packs for Guitar hero III. I was torn about getting […]

Gaming This Past Weekend

It was a good weekend in gaming for me. I got a ton more songs with 5 starts this weekend in Guitar Hero III. I can tell I’m getting better at it, but I’m still not as good as I could be. I also finished off Episode 2 of Half-Life 2. It was a lot […]

Half-Life 2 and Team Fortress 2 Impressions

I’ve been playing Team Fortress 2 for a few weeks now and I’m loving it. It might be the most fun multiplayer game I’m playing right now. For those of you not familiar with Team Fortress 2 it is a multiplayer only first person shooter. You can play as any of the 9 classes. Each […]
