Half-Life 2

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Mar 18, 2006 | PC

Wonderful improvements and clean visuals let Half-Life 2 stand as one of the greatest FPS' of all time.

Ever since 1998 the gaming industry has never been the same, so many influental and revolutionary games were released in that year, Half-Life being one of the most impressive. With Half-Life First-Person Shooters became ... Read Full Review

Black

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Mar 04, 2006 | PS2

BLACK is both underrated and overrated at the same time...

BLACK treads waters that have already been found, scouted, and mapped. Console first-person shooters will never fully revolutionize the genre, leaving that up to the PC 98% of the time. While BLACK revoultionizes nothing... Read Full Review

Killzone

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Jan 20, 2006 | PS2

I don't see why so many people bashed this game.

Today I just beat Killzone, and after finishing it I wondered why so many had bashed this game, it came to me why, Halo, most of the people who I saw/heard bashing Killzone were Halo players who didn't even own a PS2 or ... Read Full Review

The Elder Scrolls III: Tribunal

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Sep 17, 2005 | PC

Worth buying, but not as good as it could've been.

If you are looking for another game as great as Morrowind, this isn't it, it has a lot of additions to the game, stuff you can figure out without me having to tell you. The only problem I had with it was that I finished ... Read Full Review

Call of Duty 2: Big Red One

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Feb 05, 2006 | PS2

Not the best the genre has to offer but certainly a good game to play.

Call of Duty 2 for the was a graphical leap forward from its older brother, boasting clearer and cleaner graphics were it mattered most as well as improving the A.I. to somewhat give the player at tough time. To properly... Read Full Review

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (Platinum)

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Jun 05, 2005 | PS2

Far from perfect, but still a good play.

The third installment in the THPS series and the first for the then new PS2 and XBOX but also released on the PS in a more edited version. THPS3 has overall improved itself in every way since the last game, from gr... Read Full Review

Rise of Nations: Thrones & Patriots

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Jun 14, 2005 | PC

For an expansion pack, it doesn't give you a whole lot.

Thrones & Patriots is the expansion pack to the original Rise Of Nations, but while it is an expansion pack it dosen't really give you enough to be full satisfied with the expansion. The pack although not great has some ... Read Full Review

The Sims Deluxe

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Jul 12, 2005 | PC

Don't believe the hype

I got this game expecting a TON, but ended up getting nothing in return but a receipt and 2 CDs. This game was overly hyped, to the max, promising that you'll indulge yourself with it, living the life of your sim. After ... Read Full Review

Final Fantasy X-2

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Feb 15, 2006 | PS2

No more sequals, please.

Final Fantasy X was a great game, with a fantastic storyline, great gameplay, a new and really fun battle system and the addition of voice characters. And then Square-Enix had the brilliant idea of making a mockery of th... Read Full Review

Final Fantasy VII

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Apr 09, 2005 | PS

If you owned a PSX, you most likely owned this game.

Final Fantasy VII was the first FF game on the PSX, arguably the best of all time. The storyline that follows in this game is truly amazing, it keeps you hooked while taking you through plot twists that furthur grab you ... Read Full Review

ATV Offroad Fury

By Allehelgens | Review Date: Jul 17, 2005 | PS2

Too much focus on whats not important.

This game starts off pretty hard, because of the controls. It will take you about an hour to feel pretty confident in racing against your friends with the 2-player mode, or take on the main races, which really halts this... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Must-Have for the PS2.

If you own a PS2, you need this game. Like Final Fantasy X, or Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3. While GTA:SA didn't make any massive improvements in design, it did feature a massive world to explore, that could will take you ho... Read Full Review

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

An ultimate classic that should always be remembered.

Sonic The Hedgehog was a very impressive title for Sega in the early '90s, competeing with Nintendo for platformer supremacy against Super Mario Bros. was a very risky move to say the least, Sega gave it their best shot,... Read Full Review

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Is probably the best game the genre has to offer thus far.

This is not like any other stealth action game you’ve played before. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is not a sequel to MGS2 however, rather than a prequel to Metal Gear Solid for the Playstation. You start off as Jack i... Read Full Review
