The Orange Box

Super Meat Boy
Super Meat Boy is a platforming success, being of the few XBLA games that stands tall with the retail giants.
Admittedly I'm not the most skilled player, far from it. So I tend to avoid games that have a reputation with difficulty. Luckily it wasn't me who purchased Super Meat Boy, and I can say it's damn hard. But it has such a... Read Full Review

Mortal Kombat
A fighting game finally worth purchasing, with high quality gameplay and a sheer amount of content.
I can't say I have much experience with fighting games, so I'm certainly not the go to guy for the genre. I used to mash the hell out of Tekken 3 as a kid, play hours on end of Soul Edge, but I'd say that's where our col... Read Full Review

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Enslaved is nothing new in the gameplay department, but its storyline and character development make it worth playing.
I wouldn't have even been aware of Enslaved: Odyssey to the West had it not been for my good friend who lent it me in favour of the admittedly inferior Medal of Honor. And it's hard to see why, with its storyline thats e... Read Full Review

Medal of Honor
While it does give off a superbly foreboding atmosphere, there's little else to recommend in Medal of Honor.
I remember back when I was a youngster, and Medal of Honor was the shíznit (is that still cool to say?). OK, I'm talking like I'm sixty years old or something right now, but we've come a long way from PS2 and XBOX. And M... Read Full Review

Battle: Los Angeles
Lack of level design, enemies and replay value are just a few of the many shortcomings on Battle: Los Angeles.
Battle: Los Angeles fails in pretty much every aspect, frankly. A harsh way to begin a review, but if the designers aren't going to care about what the audience think, why should I care what they think? The campaign lite... Read Full Review

Mass Effect
Mass Effect is simply an unfogettable experience, with every aspect included to make a game a masterpiece.
Although I tend to stay clear of RPGs, I've always had a soft spot for BioWare's approach in the genre. Major character customization elements and a whole lot of dialogue for hardcore RPGers, and the right balance of acc... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: Black Ops
While Black Ops is a minor improvement on the previous outing, it still does little to expand on the COD franchise.
Wow, so Treyarch has done the impossible. Did anyone predict that they would seriously outdo Infinity Ward this time round, if ever? Always seeming to create the inferior games, they didn't have a very hefty reputation a... Read Full Review

Prince of Persia
A charming, beautiful experience let down by a loathsome combat system.
Gone is the dark, aggresive Prince and out comes the more modernized, likable Prince we've been waiting for since Sands of Time. Something about the badass Prince just didn't cut with me. Maybe it was his cheap likabilit... Read Full Review

Dead Space
One of the most rewarding experiences you'll encounter. If there's one horror game you musn't miss, make it this one.
When we think EA, we immediatey think sport. Or if it's not sport, it's unsatisfying, maybe even disastrous action games. Then when we all claimed they should stick to soccer, they confirm that they will be releasing a t... Read Full Review

Gears of War 2
Strong campaign spoiled by medicore multiplayer makes Gears of War 2 an inferior yet somewhat satisfying sequel.
As much as I would like to join the band wagon and agree that this game betters it's prequel, I just have to depart from this trend. It's a brillianty made game, absolutely incredibly looking... but the creators basicall... Read Full Review

Left 4 Dead
A game that relies on it's fun factor than an overall dependable experience.
OK, so let me begin by saying this game is nothing new at all. It's a typical FPS replaced with a zombie apocalyptic skin. The graphics are below average, and are what we expect off the previous generation (with the exce... Read Full Review

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
MW2 is one of those games that is hyped up to high hell, that when you finally play it, you're left feeling cold.

BioShock
BioShock is a highly immersive and extraordinary experience that even casual gamers will appreciate.
To put it simply, BioShock is a first-person shooter. But it's not your average 'shoot shoot reload' game. This game experiments with so many different types, containing elements from the RPG genre, horror genre, adventu... Read Full Review
