Just Cause 2 Review

Explosions, explosions, everywhere! But is too much of a good thing still too much?

Bioshock 2 Review

Rapture loses some of its luster the second time around, but a fresh coat of paint on the combat makes this sequel shine through some story flaws.

The Backlog: Marvel Videogames Twofer

Two Marvel videogames from last year make it fun to be a superhero…for the most part.

Rediscovering Dragon Age

Honestly, I was so done with fantasy RPGs, until a sinus infection put me on my ass for two days and I dove right back into it.

Mass Effect 2 Review

Not a perfect game, but one of my favorites, blending shooting and talking into a very cinematic experience.

The End of Borderlands (is the Beginning is the End)

Chris and I beat (or “solved”, as he puts it) Borderlands the other day. We were split on the ending; both of us agreed the ending was lame, but I thought the final boss was awesome.

Bioshock 2 First Impressions

Man, it’s good to be back in Rapture. I wasn’t aware how much I missed the creepy, rambling chatter of Splicers roaming the desolate hallways, the scattered audio logs filling my ears with objectivist propaganda, and the bone chilling sing-song of the Little Sisters as they go about their wicked, foul business.

Assassin’s Creed 2 Review

Assassin’s Creed II is just…fucking rad. I finished it not too long ago, and honestly, I was sad to see it end. Having skipped the first one, (because, well, I don’t really know) I was worried that I would not be able to follow the story, but after being inundated with images and video and hearing how much improved AC2 was over AC, I was desperate to play it, and my lovely wife got it for me for Christmas, along with Brutal Legend. I was still playing Dragon Age: Origins, but as soon as I started playing AC2, I forgot all about it, and honestly, have yet to finish Dragon Age (I will finish it at some point, it’s a great RPG, if a little clunky).
