All reviewsThe Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword2011
5 out of 5 starsWhen The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is working right, it is a terrific game. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that I've had a type of fun playing this game that I haven't had playing games since I was a little kid. The problem is, that sometimes Zelda still thinks I'm a little kid, which can be rather frustrating, since babying the player really isn't a fundamental part of Zelda. I'm an old man now (by Internet…
Portal 22011
5 out of 5 starsPortal 2 is too short. Not in the "wow this game really didn't give me what I paid for" way but in the "wow this was so fun, I really want to do a whole lot more!!" The puzzles weren't particularly difficult. Arguably, they were easier than the most difficult puzzles from the first game. But unlike the first game, they were all fun . There were puzzles in the first Portal that were challenging mainly because they…
Sid Meier's Civilization V2010
5 out of 5 starsI have never played a full Civ game before Civ Rev. So the incredibly complex world that appeals to many Civ fans was not what drew me to give Civ 5 a go. It was the enjoyment of the "one more turn" aspect with the desire for something a little complex. Civ 5 has given me all that, and I've barely scratched its surface. There is still so much to learn, so much to understand, but I'm not daunted, I'm able to still…
Red Dead Redemption2010
5 out of 5 starsWhile I don't think it matches Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, it is definitely one of Rockstar's best games. When I first heard media dudes talk about this game while it was in development, it really caught my ear, and it ended up being one of the few times a game like that didn't disappoint. It's just as fun to ride a donkey through the woods and spend hours hunting animals as it is to play through the story. For…

All articlesI don't think I want to finish Fallout: NV (Spoilers)
Jan 23, 2011
It's not the bugs, it's not freezes, it's the story. For all the choices that you get, it seems like there's really only one way to go if you want to save the Brotherhood, and to do that you have to do some pretty awful things. I've put so many damn hours into this game, and it feels like a waste to stop, but I can't do anything that fits with the type of character I'm playing. Which is strange...
Wow What a Difference...Blockbuster Video
Dec 9, 2010
Blockbuster used to be where you got hot games from 3 months ago. But now that nobody seems to step into Blockbuster anymore, you can actually rent new games pretty soon after their release. It's really a shame they put all the local video stores out of business, though, because that was the best place to rent a game. At a dollar a day, five dollars a week, you could afford to beat Final Fantas...
Offically A College Student Now
Sep 14, 2010
Now that I have basically set up tomorrow to be completely ruined by my lack of sleep due to staying up and playing Halo, I feel like I have finally unlocked at least a tiny portion of the "College Experience" Real Life Achievement. I haven't played a game with another person inside a room in a long time, that is an experience you really miss and even playing Live with friends is not the same.
Gaming Did Not Bring Us Together
Jun 19, 2010
Today in gamestop, as I was purchasing a used game, I observed a guy purchasing one of the new 360s. He was talking about how it was mighty convenient that his system just died right before the release. Since my system also just died this week, we joked about how the library of games is so strong that we just can't not get one of the new ones. It was a very pleasant conversation. Then he observ...
