Vanquish Review

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 […]

Dragon Age: Origins and Awaking Review

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 […]

Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars Demo Thoughts

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 […]

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 […]

EA Sports Active 2 Review

I’m a long time Wii Fit Plus user. When I don’t feel like heading over to the gym I can just pop it in and get a decent light workout in. I decided to give EA Sports Active 2 a try after seeing it in action at E3 last year.  I was a little skeptical […]

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 Impressions

After enjoying the demo for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2 I was very disappointed with the full game.  First off, it was short, like 6 hours short.  There were only 5 missions.  A couple of them are fairly lengthy but still 5 missions is not much.  SW:TFU2 could easily be a $20 expansion to […]

Marvel Pinball Impressions

I’ve been playing Marvel Pinball for about a week now for a review on XBLA Ratings, and now that the DLC pack for Pinball FX 2 is out I can finally talk about it.  I’ve been having a blast with it.  I enjoy Pinball FX 2 and these 4 new tables are even better than […]
