Gears of War

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Mar 17, 2009 | PC

Gears of War is a great game of it`s own but the porting issues prevent it from being playable.

I was waiting for Gears of War. Really. Personally, I defy third person shooters, but there has been too many of bad games in the market (remember DIRT? How could they even release it?) to earn my trust (and my wallet),... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto IV

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: May 09, 2009 | PS3

You can throw empty soda cans at random people! Yeah, it`s still Grand Theft Auto through and through.

To be honest, I wasn`t anticipating GTA IV much. Naturally, with giant `IV` ads all over the place and every second gamer talking about it, it was difficult to escape the hype machine surrounding the game. I was also bus... Read Full Review

Ninja Gaiden Sigma

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Dec 14, 2009 | PS3

You call yourself a ninja and can`t even do a double jump?

Considering that Ninja Gaiden Sigma is a remake of Ninja Gaiden Black which is a remake of the original Ninja Gaiden, I expected to see the best action/slasher ever made. Heck, even the opportunity to slice other dudes w... Read Full Review

TimeShift (2007)

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Dec 30, 2007 | PC

Despite the conspicious likeness with other well-known FPS, TimeShift stands for it`s own.

Time traveling is one of the most overused cliches in the movie industry and the gaming world tries to keep up with it. But it`s mostly "travel back or go forward in time", so TimeShift is the only game who really gives ... Read Full Review

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Mar 28, 2009 | PS3

It would be a lie to say that Nate can deliver dropkicks like no other, but he CAN deliver `em and plenty.

Naughty Dog seems to have a habit of creating new franchises for every PlayStation console. First it was Crash Bandicoot in 1996, then, 5 years later, Jak & Daxter. And now, another 5 years later, a brand-new IP, Unchar... Read Full Review

Senjou no Valkyria

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Jul 24, 2010 | PS3

Even in times of war, the ladies still wear miniskirts!

Unnoticed by many, Valkyria Chronicles quietly snuck upon Playstation 3 owners and was immediately recognized for not only being a rain in a desert of PS3 JRPG`s but also as an innovative and unique blend of multiple gen... Read Full Review

Assassin's Creed

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Mar 28, 2009 | PS3

Experience the daily routine of the Assassin... which is not necessarily a good thing.

You thought the life of an assassin would be exciting? Never the same thing again, never knowing if you see tomorrow and so on. That`s what I thought. Turns out I was wrong. Assassins have a very structured life full of ... Read Full Review

BioShock

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Nov 09, 2008 | PC

BioShock is one of a kind expierience, only if you can comprehend it.

Writing reviews is an ungrateful job. You just can`t evaluate games like Crysis or Gears of War fairly. There are armies of fans that will stand and fall for it, ignoring any arguments, spitting right into your face for ... Read Full Review

Mass Effect

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Aug 26, 2008 | PC

Mass Effect tries to succeed in lots of things, but with inconsistent results.

When I first heard of Mass Effect in a tiny article of my local gaming magazine, I was rather surprised of the ambition developers had. In early development stage BioWare already planned to make a trilogy. And the whole ... Read Full Review

Spider-Man 2: Enter: Electro

By JonnyEarthquake | Review Date: Feb 09, 2008 | PS

Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro is a worthy sequel to its predecessor, but not in every aspect.

The original Spider-Man was loved and appreciated mainly because of it`s great graphics and gameplay. I must say, that sequel has saved alot of the original. But not everywhere. The main game`s flaw is it`s length and un... Read Full Review

Crysis

Not your everyday small scale war on a tropical island.

The level of hype Crysis received was comparable only to Half Life and Halo series. Before the game came out we knew practically everything about it - except that it has lots of serious flaws. The story is your averag... Read Full Review
