There are many genres in video gaming. First person shooters, platformers, music rhythm games, RPGs, and puzzlers are several of the most popular. However, the latter two need to be singled out for a specific reason; they remain very much unchanged since their conception. Enter Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. One brief glance at the game would lead you to believe it’s your standard take on the genre. Match…
A lot of smaller sections in large games get overlooked. Take western RPGs for example. There may be some sort of gambling mini-game, in which you can win big or lose big. The problem is, because these games are so vast and feature so many other ways (and quite possibly, better ways) to earn currency, these smaller diversions often go unnoticed. But what if the smaller game was the entire game? That’s what Fable II…
Vinegar is a smell I’ll forever more associate with this game, because I still remember the night I discovered Peggle . I was googling ‘physics based games’ when I came across a blog which reviewed just those very games. Peggle immediately stood out. I downloaded the trial and less an hour later I was typing in credit card details, paying what seemed like far too much for such a simple game. My parents had just…

I have to thank Vice City for a lot of things. Countless hours of fun, an engrossing story, a fascinating look at 80s culture, a finely crafted world. But perhaps most of all, for igniting my love affair with Iron Maiden. V-Rock, 2 Minutes to Midnight. The second the song's opening guitar riff begun, I was captivated. And I've not looked back since, until now. This led to my first purchase of a...

Ever get the feeling that a game can sometimes feel more like work than play? RPGs in particular. Managing your party, inventory, stats ect. can become a game within itself. Sometimes you just want a game to tell you what to do. CoD, Team Deathmatch. Shoot people, win. In Borderlands, I have to decide what to do next. Do I keep this gun or sell it? Which quest should I start? Am I wasting my le...

Here's a game I was meaning to pick up for the past year and a bit, ever since I played the demo. I would have just downloaded the episodes as they came out but seeing as I'm only on a 40gb, space is already as issue. So yesterday, while in GameStop, I spotted it second hand for €22 and thought it was about time I got around to playing it. I'd be lying if watching the amazing Endurance Run of D...

As I sit here writing, the realization that churning out 18 more of these purely for the purposes of increasing an arbitrary number isn't going to be easy, has hit me. Hard. I'm always meaning to write more though, so I guess this gives me the perfect excuse. So, Pokemon HG and SS hit European shelves two weeks ago. It's the first Pokemon game I've bought since Diamond and Pearl, three years ag...

Purely because it would seem a quest is linked to making a blog post. Hopefully I'm right in my assumption or I will look quite foolish. Sneak edit: It seems I was right. It's tempting to just spam the system and quickly finish this quest but where would the fun be in that? One blog entry a day for the next 19 days it is.
