Athena

By jazilla | Review Date: Aug 21, 2006 | NES

Athena is anemic at times.

I had forgotten about this one. Picked it up for a couple of dollars and popped it in. It was great at first. Then I got to the end. Holy cow! I forgot that you can't beat the game! There is no ending to this game. It ju... Read Full Review

Dragon Age: Origins

By jazilla | Review Date: Nov 07, 2009 | X360

It's all in the details and nuance.

There is something about how BioWare handled the way they put this game together. They took a lot of great parts about their past RPG's(and other developing house's RPG's for that matter) and put them together to make wh... Read Full Review

World Championship Poker 2: Featuring Howard Lederer

By jazilla | Review Date: Jan 13, 2006 | XBOX

pretty cool AI for a poker game

The AI in this game is pretty good for a poker game. It feels more like poker than actually playing at one of those free poker sites. The people at free poker sites generally tend to be very liberal in their betting styl... Read Full Review

Half-Life 2

By jazilla | Review Date: Jun 04, 2007 | PC

This is a game that simply must be played. A technically sound game with very little to complain about.

I really enjoy playing this game. The story is told not from a movie, but with you interacting with the characters. The levels are well paced and well designed. It makes you think without ever leaving you stuck or scratc... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto IV

By jazilla | Review Date: Apr 30, 2008 | X360

A game with almost as many jaw-dropping moments as F-Bombs. None of the jaw-drops had me drop the F-Bomb though.

This game is just like every other version of GTA, except its like the crack head GTA member of the family. It just has a different edge to it that the other games didn't have. It is definitely darker. But the premise i... Read Full Review

T&C Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage

By jazilla | Review Date: Jul 15, 2006 | NES

Totally Tubular!

What kid in the 80's didn't own a pair of neon Oakley's and wear T&C clothing? I sure did. And man, if I didn't look like the biggest geek doing it. When this game came out I was way stoked, because I could actually surf... Read Full Review

Golgo 13: Dai 1 Shou: Kamigami no Tasogare

By jazilla | Review Date: Jul 15, 2006 | NES

Special Dark

This game was so innovative when it came out. People try to point to other games as the first FPS, but I think this could be the grand-daddy of the genre. Sure, you could only move one block at a time, meaning that the g... Read Full Review

Nobunaga no Yabou: Zenkokuban

By jazilla | Review Date: Jul 13, 2006 | NES

Strategy gamer's delight.

This game rocked my socks off when it came out. I was 13 in 1988 and had never played a strategy style game before. It was so deep in what it offered and had you carry out. It was incredibly challenging, and really teste... Read Full Review
