It is not very often a game surprises me these days. Generally, I can tell if I’ll like a game based on the game play videos and trailers.  I was expecting to enjoy the campaign in Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood since it is a direct continuation of Assassin’s Creed 2 which I really enjoyed.  While the […]

I’ve been playing Rock Band 3 since the day it released and I figure it is time I share my thoughts on it. I’ve only played the keyboard a little but it is fun so far.  I always intend to play it more, but then I start playing guitar/bass and have so much fun that […]

Having finished Fallout: New Vegas I spent the last couple days playing Rock Band 3 (review coming at some point), Radiangames Fireball and Faery: Legends of Avalon.  Fireball is similar to passivism mode in Geometry Wars but expanded to a full game.  At just $1 it is my value game for the week because I’ve […]

I’m sitting here watching the final credits for Fallout: New Vegas and my save game is sitting at nearly 50 hours.  I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time in New Vegas and I look forward to any DLC that Bethesda releases.While I don’t have anywhere near all the achievements and I don’t plan to get them.  With […]

I generally don’t play many flying games but the idea of a co-op helicopter game seems like it could be fun. One person flying and another manning the guns.  So, with that idea in mind I downloaded the demo for Apache: Air Assault on Xbox Live.  I did not even finish the demo before quitting […]

Pinball FX 2 hit Xbox Live Arcade this week and while I don’t generally play pinball video games I decided to check it out.  I do like playing real pinball machines, but the video game counterparts have never held my interest. I was pleasantly surprised how much fun I had playing Pinball FX 2. The […]

A demo for Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit hit Xbox Live today so I took a little time away from Fallout New Vegas to check it out. I played a couple head to head races at E3 this past summer and enjoyed the game mode they had there.  In this demo there are a couple […]

I know I’m late to the party with this one, but I finally got around to playing Dawn of War II. DoW2 is a real time strategy game removes all of the base building and focuses solely on the fighting. Some people call it a tactical RPG, but to me it plays more like an […]

I purchased Costume Quest Wednesday evening and finished it last night with all of the achievements completed. It took me just under 5 hours to finish and while that does seem kind of short when I think about it now I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing the game. Double Fine has made fun, simple action […]

I’ve always been a sucker for Space Invader games.  I’m not that great at them but there is something about the simplicity and nostalgia that keeps me playing each new version. So, when  Space Invaders Infinity Gene hit Xbox Live Arcade I knew I’d be spending some time with it.  I’ve got my full review […]
