All reviewsI'm Batman, and you are too.
5 out of 5 starsQuick Pros and Cons: + Fun, action oriented combat with a good combo system and nice role/power interactions. Different power trees play differently enough to roles to make them worthwhile. + Varied missions, interesting story arcs, and well designed dungeons/instances/encounters. A nice queue/matchmaking system for getting Alerts together. + Huge, impressive cities that have a lot of cool and unique areas to them,…

Jan 1, 2016
2015 was an excellent year for games, so much so I think this was the first year I actually had to cut things and wasn't just struggling to add anything to fill out the last spots. That said, it introduced the new problem of actually trying to rank things and figure out what I really liked this year, and what's valuable to me in a game that makes it stand out above the rest.

Final FAQ XIV: A Realm Re-Asking The Same Questions Over & Over

Let's get to it! Number 12 Diablo III was a disappointment. I di...
[Star Wars: The Old Republic] Beta Impressions
Dec 1, 2011
I spent most of this weekend (Saturday/Sunday/Monday) playing this with a friend of mine, and now that I've given it a few days to kind of settle, I figure I might as well write something about it, as it's been a while since I've done one of these. My Sith Inquisitor, Elvia, freshly created on Saturday morning. First thing is first, this is an MMO, it is a good one of those, but it is totally s...
[Mortal Kombat] The End of the Road
Apr 30, 2011
I beat all 300 Challenge Tower missions without skipping any... ... and all I got was this lousy costume. Also, I didn't get the 10,000 koins it said I'd get. Not like I have anything to spend them on, but still kinda lame. Before... and After
