Darwinia
Simple interface, simple style graphics, mind-boggling depth. This is an incredible video game worthy of all praise!
Darwinia is an action packed real time strategy game with a simple, straight-forward concept and a painfully simple interface. But don’t let any of that fool you. This game is bursting at the seams with action, enterta... Read Full Review

That was short, ungratifying, and almost painful.
Sin Episodes: Emergence is the lead-in for a series of video games from Ritual. These are also supposed to form the sequel to the old, under appreciated PC Game simply titled “Sin”. The hype behind this game was pretty... Read Full Review

You've gotta love commitment! This game has the best presentation I have ever seen!!
I have to say that I love this new wave of “retro” games which use old concepts such as 1950's sci-fi and horror and make them into new video games. Stubbs the Zombie falls right in line with a fellow old-skool-made-new... Read Full Review

Stick a fork in the Demolition Racer Genre, it's done. "Flatout" is flatout bad.
Demolition racing is dead. This game may not have killed it, but it’s attempts at CPR are NOT helping anything. This game has a few highpoints which are so overshadowed by the horrid glitches and frustrating issues tha... Read Full Review

Incredibly ambitious title with an amazing story, but the glitches are a massive hurdle to overcome towards enjoying it.

This game will ruin your eyesight and make you ruin your shorts!
Doom 3, the latest in the classic gaming franchise. Not bad for a series that began with a group of 12 people. Let’s cut straight through the BS and get right to the meat, shall we? You are a marine sent to the UAC ... Read Full Review

In an era of carbon copies, rip-offs, and fads this is the true archetype. Others only wish they were the TXR series.

When you just wish everyone around you was a walking target.
Postal 2: Share the Pain…tasteless, vulgar, violent, and pretty pointless. This is not a bad thing! This is a great game for those days when you’re just so PO’ed that you can’t take it anymore. Let’s get into the game... Read Full Review

Short, sweet, and to the point. However, the short play time is a real weak point for anyone who really enjoyed it.
John Woo’s “Stranglehold” follows the format laid out by “The Goonies II” for the NES. It is a tried and true sequel to a film done entirely in the digital realm. This one is the sequel to John Woo’s action film “Hard ... Read Full Review

Six disciplines, over 40 cars, and tons and tons of good, old fashioned filth all come together to make a great game.

This is Capcom's first foray back into cross over fighting in a while, but they haven't lost a single step.

This game takes the worst elements of the series, removes the best, and gives you a useless husk of a marketing gimmick.

Off-beat, offensive, quirky, and gory. This title is a well-made must-have for all mature Wii owners.

Ultra-Viloent, highly stylized, delightfully offensive. It's worth having around for those bad days when you need it.

Just because it's by the numbers doesn't mean it can be good!
I have to first point out that I am at least partially influenced by the game's $20 price point. This comes after I shelled out $30 for UT2004 and $55(!) for HL2 (which I found 3 weeks later for $34.99). Area 51 is ... Read Full Review

Cut-scenes that seem almost like satire belie a magnificent game with a sound story and user friendly scaling controls.

This was an excellent, masterfully done game, but it was too short to fully realize its potential.

This game had a lot of potential. However, it's rush job feel and glitchy nature make it hard to enjoy.

I think this game could have done well being based on the original comic instead of the movie, it would have helped.

Jaw dropping...and I'm not simply referring to the female characters.

Those among you with a penchant for B-Movies will find enough to enjoy in this game's blood drenched drenched innards.

Between the overly linear gameplay and the hideous crash bugs this one had potential and then just fell terribly short.
