Rhythm Thief & the Emperor’s Treasure is the third game I purchased since I got my Nintendo 3DS a month ago. I was pretty psyched about it after playing the demo on the 3DS e-shop which reminded me of the fun I had with other rhythm games such as Elite Beat Agents on the previous generation’s Nintendo DS. While Rhythm Thief is savagely satisfying when you get the beat right, it can also be massively frustrating due…
Single-player review. Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is a direct sequel to 2009’s Assassin’s Creed II. The game literally takes place moments after the ending of Assassin’s Creed II.

The story is broken up into sections,…
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is a third person action-adventure game that has you take the role of treasure hunter Nathan Drake on a quest to uncover the true fate of 16 century explorer Sir Francis Drake and the treasure of El Dorado. One of the earlier games to come out on the PS3, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune really shows off what the PS3 is capable of: from the beautiful shadows created by the canopy to the uncanny…
