4 out of 5 starsFrom the moment you boot up Ninja Theory's newest action adventure, you get the sense that you are at the beginning of something quite special. Our protagonists, Monkey and Trip are on a journey where the player is tasked with returning Trip to her home and finding out who and what is exactly behind all of the mechanised monsters that have taken over and " enslaved" the world. For the most part, the gameplay is…

5 out of 5 starsDo you like hockey? Well awesome, because this years iteration of EA's storied hockey franchise is better then many than other versions of years past. From a technical hockey standpoint, there are few games that can stack up in terms of content, authenticity and fun. With many additions and tweaks to the game it is definitely worth checking out. Some highlights of the new game include: Be a Pro Mode - Essentially,…

What can I say that hasn't already been said about this game? Persona 3: The Journey concludes in a way that I expected and yet, I'm completely stunned by this game. The narrative develops in a way that I haven't truly experienced on this level in a long time, if ever. The S-Link system seemed like charming little game mechanic that was meant purely for the fusion side of the game, but as the g...
My Month in Gaming (March)
Mar 30, 2011
This month can only be summed up as being the month of Persona 3. I am now up to 78 hours in game time (having started it in early June) and I really don't think I have at any point in my life put that much time into a single playthrough of any game ever. It says something about the narrative scope and tiny elements of that game that make it a truly compelling adventure to complete. The sum of...
My Month in Gaming (February)
Mar 5, 2011
Hi Nick, Remember when we used to play games and enjoyed life? Well, school has sort of ruined that so we don't have all that much time for that kind of stuff right now. I mean, we finally cracked open that copy of Beyond Good and Evil that's been sitting around since the summer. It's pretty rad, but Mass Effect 2's DLC only last us like a week? Too bad, Mass Effect 2 ruined games for us, becau...
My Month in Gaming (January)
Feb 6, 2011
So, clearly I am not going to be able to consistently blog every week on what I've been playing. I've run out of time, but still want to log what I've been doing when I do play games. As it goes, a monthly log seems to be best route here, so I'll stick with that for time being, intermittently writing down my thoughts periodically. So, since my last post two weeks ago I've completed RDR and ME2....
My MONTH in gaming...yikes
Jan 18, 2011
Well, things really got off the wagon in the middle portion of December until now. Exams, the holiday break and dealing with early semester troubles didn't lend to me logging in what I've been playing, but I've played quite a few games over the last month until completion. Among VVVVVV, Machinarium, Read Dead Redemption, Alan Wake and Mass Effect 2 (which I just started this morning) VVVVVVV an...
My week in gaming (12/05/10-12/12/10)
Dec 12, 2010
This week has not had too much going on given that I've been spending the majority of my time studying for finals. As a result, this will probably be brief as I really don't have a thing to say. Persona 3: I've continued working my way to the 40 hour mark in Persona, which was my goal 2 weeks ago when I decided to pick it up again. I've hit a lull in the story and there does not seem to be anyt...
