  • Table Top Tanks Review

    Much ado has been given to PlayStation Vita's augmented reality features in the months since its reveal, but the apps and games to use AR have so far ranged from less-than-stellar experiences to glorified tech demos. In this regard, Table Top Tanks doesn't do much to break the mold. That said, it al...

  • DiRT Showdown Review

    First, before we get going here, let me preface this review by saying this is NOT a DiRT off-road racing game like you are used to. Now, for those of you still with me, let me explain. For fans everywhere, DiRT has become a name synonymous with great racing games pumped out of Codemasters’ dev...

  • NCAA Football 13 Review

    It must be hard to make sweeping changes to yearly-installment sports games because few developers stray from their tried and trusted formulas. Luckily for the NCAA Football franchise, the formula is quite strong. The gameplay is consistently smooth, the presentation feels like a television broa...

  • Quantum Conundrum Review

    Quantum Conundrum, the downloadable title by Airtight Games, is a bit of an oddball. The studio, which developed Dark Void, has somewhat of a spotty track record. But with the lead designer behind Portal, Kim Swift, can Airtight turn its record around? The story, even with how little it matters t...

  • LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes Review

    Gotham City awaits you in LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, but Arkham City this is not. The family-friendly nature of the LEGO video game franchise is intact despite DC Comics' comparatively dark mythos, but that doesn't mean developer Traveller's Tales is content to give us a simple rehash of the LE...

  • The Walking Dead: Episode 2 - Starved for Help Review

    [Editor’s note: Since I doubt that you’re jumping into the series with Episode 2, you should probably read our review of Episode 1 for reference. In it, I give a broader look at the game’s design and charm, as well as how it actually plays. Now that you know what this game is, I&rs...

  • Inversion Review

    Inversion is one of those games that you really hope works. From the outset, you are promised guns, gravity manipulation, and epic battles. The sad reality is, often promises don’t come through. This is one of those times. The game opens with you, Davis Russel, and your ever so stereotypical...

  • The Walking Dead: Episode 1 - A New Day Review

    [Editor’s note: We realize that Episode 1 – A New Day was released in April. We received review code a little late, and held this review to coincide with the launch of Episode 2. Look for Episode 2’s review tomorrow!] The Walking Dead: Episode 1- A New Day is Telltale Games’...

  • Resident Evil Chronicles HD Collection Review

    Capcom has dabbled in numerous Resident Evil-related spin-offs in the venerable horror series’ 15+ year history, though overall the result has proven a mixed bag at best. Among the most successful however have been the Chronicles series; that is, on-the-rails retellings of classic Resident Evi...

  • Spec Ops: The Line Review

    Have you ever wanted to play a military shooter with a heart? Well, Spec Ops: The Line’s heart is a bloody mess and players are rewarded with an intense, often squeamish adventure that is all about the fight for human survival. It’s safe to say that the gameplay won’t win any aw...

  • Game of Thrones Review

    It’s hard to mention Game of Thrones without saying “trend.” With that in mind, it’s also not surprising to see a game based on the popular story. If you’ve been a gamer for more than five minutes, you know that games inspired by cinematography are usually very terrible...

  • Lollipop Chainsaw Review

    Lollipop Chainsaw is one of the most obnoxious games I’ve ever played. When you imagine a ditzy-Britney Spears-cheerleader-inspired zombie hunter who dons as little clothing as possible, you may be mildly intrigued. Or maybe you wanted to check out Grasshopper Manufacture’s latest slapst...

  • Resistance: Burning Skies Review

    The release of Resistance: Burning Skies is something of a landmark release for PlayStation Vita, and handhelds in general for that matter. Not only is it another entry into one of Sony’s most prolific series, but concurrently, it’s the first dual-stick shooter on any portable games cons...

  • Rock of Ages Review

    It was a first for me when I saw a game with any sort of resemblance to Monty Python, so Rock of Ages caught my eye right off the bat. Cut scenes are rendered in a similar style mimicking the great ideas that Terry Gilliam used in the Monty Python works, and it gives the game a very unique and comic...

  • Gravity Rush Review

    Gravity Rush challenges your perception of what it means to be a superhero. Better yet, it challenges your notion of what constitutes as superpowers. The cleverly-named Kat, who is bestowed gravity-defying powers by a cat (get the play on names?), acts like a superhero on acid. She falls through...

  • Sorcery review

    The most fun we’ve ever had with PlayStation Move was unwrapping it on launch day and giggling like schoolgirls at its resemblance to a vibrating sex aid, but the possibility that Sony would one day create a core game experience that takes real advantage of its true 1:1 motion-sensing capabili...

  • Ghost Recon: Future Soldier review

    With bagfuls of high-tech equipment at your disposal, being a soldier in the future and turning up to do battle against significantly less-technologically advanced foes is a bit like entering this year's World Freestyle Skateboarding Championships with Marty McFly's hoverboard from Back To The Futur...

  • Nyko Raven Review

    This version of the Raven is the ALT version; the non-ALT version features analog sticks in the same place as the DualShock 3 Picking up the Nyko Raven controller you’ll instantly detect the build quality of the product. Saying the controller feels solid would be an understatement. There is a...

  • Max Payne 3 Review

    Max Payne is a complete mess. Moving to New Jersey was supposed to be a new start away from the DEA and NYPD, a place where he could finally try to put the brutal murders of his wife and daughter to the back of his mind, and retire from the violence that had so far consumed his life. With his menta...

  • Datura Review

    After wrapping up my first play through of Datura, I wasn’t quite sure what to think – it really is that unique. However, one thing that was abundantly clear is that I hadn’t played anything like this on PlayStation Network, and am not likely to for quite some time either. An a...

  • Starhawk Review

    Starhawk stands a chance of being the new cornerstone of Sony’s PlayStation 3 online clout. It’s not hard to imagine Sony executives talking about how their console has the strongest online community thanks to games like Starhawk. But whether that’s true will ultimately boil do...

  • Prototype 2 Review

    There is something so satisfying about running up the side of skyscrapers, gliding through the air, and landing on some helpless infected person before ripping them apart in a gory feast. If that’s the kind of thing you are looking for, Prototype 2 is the game for you. It’s easy to h...

  • Sniper Elite V2 Review

    High on the top floor of a dilapidated building, with chin pressed to the ground, not moving a muscle, the silent but deadly hero of Sniper Elite V2 surveys the heavily-guarded area below with his binoculars before he glares down the sights of his Springfield M1903 rifle. Executing a carefully plac...

  • Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention Review

    Disgaea 3: Absence Of Detention may be a little confusing for the RPG novice. On one hand its school-based location, cutesy anime style and quirky sense of humour suggests that it’s a game aimed at the young casual gaming crowd. However, as soon as you get past the drawn-out introduction and s...

  • UEFA Euro 2012 Review

    There isn’t anything wrong in the gameplay and new modes added to FIFA 12 through the digital expansion pack UEFA Euro 2012. In fact, the actual content is quite enjoyable, especially if you are a massive football friend, and more importantly, a fan of the gameplay from FIFA 12. The game h...
