1 out of 5 starsXbox Live Indie Games was a treasure trove of shovelware, budget games and poorly-made clones. I came across this game a few years ago after downloading a demo, and completely forgot about it until now. I can't say why I downloaded the demo, but I'd love to say I was bored. Some games were never meant to be played, this is one of them. Let's take a look at Silver Dollar Games' one of many terrible Xbox Live indie…
L.A. Noire2011
4 out of 5 starsHonestly, I think that mystery games have fallen out of fashion within the recent millennia. It seems that a lot of people don't have the patience for these sorts of games and require something a bit fast-paced. Luckily, there's a mystery-themed game out there that I think can suit to these sort of needs, which is quite possibly one of the best games released under the Rockstar Games belt. Let's take a look at Team…
Halo: Combat Evolved2001
5 out of 5 starsHalo is a series that defines the Xbox brand as we know it today. As a shooter series that predates both Battlefield and Call of Duty , it is a franchise best known for its innovation when it comes to online multiplayer and connectivity. Because Halo: Combat Evolved was one of the top-selling games for the original Xbox, both Microsoft and 343 Industries decided it would be best to remake this beloved game to…

Here is my review on IO Interactive 's soft reboot to the long-running series, HITMAN : HITMAN Review (Xbox One) Synopsis HITMAN starts as a prequel to all of the mainline game's events. Starting in…

All articlesThe game that deserves Nightdive remaster treatment
Apr 2, 2025
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Nightdive Studios are doing good work in terms of preserving obscure titles from the past that have been neglected by inaccessibility. And with the upcoming System Shock 2 remaster coming out this June, they have expressed interest in reviving 7th generation titles. With this recent news, there are several games from the 360 / PS3 era I think would be...
Grand Theft Auto's Lack of True Competition
Mar 1, 2023
With the new console generation coming into full swing, I've recently been asking myself a myriad of questions regarding the significant lack of Grand Theft Auto contenders within the last decade. Let's take a look at some urban-themed, open-world franchises - new and old - to see what went wrong and where they could go next. Back in the day there was a considerable group of people against so-c...
Why the Fable Trilogy Needs a Remaster
May 28, 2022
Fable is a game series that's new but familiar to me. My first experience with the world of Albion was through Fable Anniversary around 5 years ago and although I had some issues with the game I relatively enjoyed it for what it was, its sequels I enjoyed more so. With the last few years being full of noteworthy remasters & remakes (even the obscure Shadow Man game got its own remaster) and som...
LittleBigPlanet & My Issues with PlayStation
May 26, 2022
For those who are not aware, I grew up on PlayStation - the first console I ever got to own for myself was the PlayStation 3 and before that I briefly had a PSP for sometime. And although I had minor issues maintaining my PlayStation consoles, I still cherish many good memories of playing games like LittleBigPlanet during my youth. However it has become abundantly clear to me that PlayStation h...
