Rocksmith
Learn to Play the Guitar, Maybe
I have had this game since October 2012 and have diligently played through much of it, though I'm still early on. As advertised, Rocksmith breaks down how to play a guitar with coloured strings and mini-games. I have t... Read Full Review

DreamWorks The Penguins of Madagascar (2010)
Solid Puzzle Challenges with License that Could Be More
For less than $5, this game was quite a steal! The idea is rather simple, there are three parts of the game, disjointed stories with basically the same ideas peppered throughout. Skipper and the crew must navigate thro... Read Full Review

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Action Adventure Game Fun, But It's Been Done
I realise that playing a game that is more than five years old is at my own risk, but I have heard nothing but great things about Uncharted and Naughty Dog. In this story, the gamer follows Nathan Drake as he searches f... Read Full Review

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow
A Little Too Familiar Game Play & Story Make this Lacklustre
The story of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow felt familiar from the opening cut-scenes, and became more familiar as the hours went on. The story mirrors many that we as gamers have seen before, man loses the love of his li... Read Full Review

BioShock 2
Nothing New Doesn't Detract from this Franchise
Bioshock was a wonderful game that had many twists and turns that had me utterly gobsmacked as I made my way through Rapture. In a return trip to Rapture, I found things felt all too familiar, yet I was still affected b... Read Full Review

Dead Space 2
Slight Improvements from the Original, More of an Add-On than a Separate Game
Dead Space 2 starts, seemingly right where the original ends. Issac is in a hospital of some sort, unaware he'd been there for years, making something he doesn't remember. His mind is fractured from the proximity to th... Read Full Review

Dead Space
Despite the Age, Still Terrifying
When Dead Space came out, one of my friends let me borrow it, saying it was a great game. The first night, I had nightmares after only playing an hour and had to only play the game during the daylight after that. Havin... Read Full Review

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
The Amalgamation of Disney Characters not for Everyone
I picked this game up on release and have tried to slog through this game. I have to start this review off by saying the only other KH game I've played was the first one, I loved that, but the jump from that to this was... Read Full Review

Resident Evil 6
Latest Entry Low on Scares, Delivers Decent Story
Resident Evil is a franchise that has been around for some time. I didn't sample the game until Resident Evil 4 came out on the PS2. I loved RE 4, so much so that I picked up RE5 without question. My review for RE5 ca... Read Full Review

Dante's Inferno: Shinkyoku Jigoku-Hen
And the Words 'Cheap Death' Were Redefined and We All Stood in Awe…
I picked this game up not long after the last God of War game came out. And while all my gaming friends tell me it is a mortal sin to compare games, I couldn't help myself. This game is a cross between Devil May Cry an... Read Full Review

BioShock
Compelling Story with Creative Game Play Makes This a Must Play Game
I'm often late to the party, but this was a gross oversight on my part. I generally steer clear of games that are played from the First Person perspective, I find it disorienting. But after a successful run through Deu... Read Full Review

God of War: Ghost of Sparta
Weakest of all of Kratos' Adventures
In God of War: Ghost of Sparta, long-time fans can enjoy another adventure designed for a portable device. Unfortunately, the game doesn't hearken to its console predecessors, but to other mobile games. It is short and... Read Full Review

The 3rd Birthday
Hard Game with Confusing Story
When I first saw the trailer for this game, I was fascinated. I bought my PSP on a whim (thank you Metal Gear Solid) and don't get the chance to play it all that often. I look forward to PSP exclusive games just to see... Read Full Review

Mass Effect
Great Beginning to an Explosive Series
Mass Effect is an immersive space drama. I started playing this game several months ago and it took me a great deal of time to get engrossed in what was a rather amazing story. The game play is a challenge, though the ... Read Full Review

Silent Hill: Origins
A Portable Game Low on Scares and Story
There is a growing trend out there that seems to believe that games for a portable device should be shorter than the console variety, this game bolsters this belief. A scant few hours long, this game builds on the lore ... Read Full Review

Assassin's Creed: Revelations (Special Edition)

Max Payne 3
The Epic Return of Max Does Not Disappoint
When I first heard that a sequel to the Max Payne games from the early 2000's, I was understandably sceptical. In the time that Max Payne 2 has come out, Rockstar has had a plethora of tremendous releases. I expected t... Read Full Review

Prototype 2
Surpasses the Sequel, But Not By Much
Being able to morph body parts into any number of weapons seems like the perfect game, but an occasional frame rate issue or frustrating game play make the game less successful than it should be. In Prototype 2, the gam... Read Full Review
