Right off the bat, I must say I'm really digging Shadow Complex. The side-scrolling shooter genre hasn't had a decent entry in quite awhile and I think it is due for a rebirth. It's only fitting that this game comes from Epic, whose Gears of War franchise always seemed to me like Blackthorne in 3D. I've only played for about 2 hours so far, but here's what I think. First off the graphics are pr...
Apparently there's a new Wolfenstein coming out tomorrow and it does not bode well that there isn't a legit review to be found anywhere yet. I'm sure the reviews are under embargo until it's out, but that usually doesn't happen unless the game is a steaming pile. I vaguely remember Return to Castle Wolfenstein as a decent-but-unmemorable shooter. From the lack of attention this new Wolfenstein...
I guess I am alone in this, but I really don't like this game. Granted, I've only played the first 3 levels, but I just find it frustrating and irritating. I do really like the games style and graphics (though the 2D art is crap), but there's a lack of finesse to the controls (again, because of the physics model) that leads to a lot of cheap deaths. The thief's grappling hook is probably the wo...
I've just managed to complete world 1 with more difficulty than I first thought. I have come to the conclusion that 'Splosion Man is in fact N+ with a lot more personality and some added depth. At first I was worried that this game would be a cakewalk, but once I got to level 1-5 and actually started dying, I realized that this game was going to get hardcore real quick. What's really great abou...
While I had been forewarned by awful reviews of Transformers 2, thereby having no one to blame but myself for attending, nothing could have prepared me for the absolute horror that I witnessed. This movie wasn't just "bad", bad I could deal with. This movie was the zenith of stupid; an accidental satire of all of the worst that America has to offer. There wasn't a moment without a Chevy or Moun...
I was a big fan of the first Overlord, a next-gen Pikmin knockoff with it's own goofy, mischievous soul. While there are some improvements and additions to the game, it doesn't quite go as far from it's predecessor as I hoped. The new mounts are pretty good, except for one instance where you have to fight the controls to pass a timed event. You also have the ability time to time to take direct...
