The Graveyard

Some Designers Understand Beauty and Games Alike.

What is a game besides ordered movement we control in a depiction? This is one of the present viewpoints of game design that interprets illustrated gaming since time's dawn. To govern the movements of a simulated eld... Read Full Review

Final Fantasy XII

Final Fantasy Just Isn't All That Great Anymore

This is my fourth review of this game, the others having been deleted by presumptuous administration. I must state here that I do not like this game and as a result have been honest as to my reasons for disliking Final ... Read Full Review

Republic: The Revolution

Beautiful Game that Deserves Refinement and Expansion

I wish I could honestly give this game a higher score, but honestly I cannot tilt the game further. It is in essence more valuable than most computer games presently available in subtle ways and in the way that a book o... Read Full Review

The Movies

Not Good for Independent Creations -- Insufficient Variation for Amusement

I purchased this game hoping to make loads of wonderful, lovely films, but the film creation system is boring and slow. It's almost as if the designers of this game did not want to really allow people to have fun creati... Read Full Review

The Sims 2

Looking After the Game Designer Kids

This game plays very much as if looking after victims of neurotoxins. The characters piss and poop on themselves and ignore very basic AI conveniences. A game designer might think to realise that a player of a SIms g... Read Full Review

Neverwinter Nights 2 (CD-ROM)

Do Not Buy This Game!

This game is useless for D&D enthusiasts, RPG computer game fans, and those who want to use the Neverwinter Nights 2 toolset to create adventures. Unless it is the only game you own, you'll probably dislike it. First... Read Full Review

Rome: Total War

Pleasant but Swerves from Potential Optimum State

This game could have been the best game I've seen in quite some time. It does not rely entirely on graphics to provide entertainment and puts into consideration that many other games with functional fundamental game str... Read Full Review

Neverwinter Nights

Very Dissapointed!

I was enthusiastic that this game was released, I was enthusiastic but Neverwinter Nights is nothing of what it advertises. There is very little actual D&D content to relish -- the game seems to mock millions of D&a... Read Full Review

Medieval II: Total War

Creative Assembly Assembles Flaws

This game, Medieval 2 Total War, seems like a flawed modification of a great game. First of all, the graphics and music are good. The battles are marked by foolish decisions on behalf of the AI computer player. The ca... Read Full Review

Star Wars: Empire at War

Yet Another Silly Game

This game sold for around fifty dollars. It is not worth more than five, despite graphical representations. Empire at War is clumsy, poorly structured, with pisspoor game options. I wasted good, real money on this and... Read Full Review

Sid Meier's Civilization IV

Sid, Please Do Your Own Work...

Civilization 4 is not perhaps a masterpiece, since old Sid Meier copped the basic game rules from the old card game Civilization, and perhaps also because he relies on the work of less credited or uncredited others to ad... Read Full Review

Star Trek Online

It's Not Star Trek, It's Small Rooms in Space!

Star Trek Online by Cryptic is supposedly a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game, which means it's supposed to be suitable for hundreds, thousands, or even millions of players. It appears to be a slightly modi... Read Full Review

The Temple of Elemental Evil

A Classic Roleplaying Game Sent to its Bedroom: Mixed Blessings

First, I'd like to say that this game is good, better than most would give it credit for, simply because of the plethora of uninspired and silly games. Also, the music and dramatic tile sets used to create this game ar... Read Full Review

Fallout

Fallout: The Smart Bully's Friend

While Fallout was enjoyable at the time it was released, it seemed rather juvenile as well, and outside the graphics it was the sort of game that a smart high school freshman could put together in a few semesters (and ma... Read Full Review

City of Heroes

City of Stupidity

On the outset, I want to honestly suggest to you that you wait til DC or Marvel comes out with a superhero MMORPG. This game, Freedom Force, and quite a few other superhero games are sadly lacking in the brains departme... Read Full Review

City of Villains

Strange Corruption in Design Values and Odd Experiences during Playtest!

First and foremost I can summarise the gameplay in City of Villains as being mostly redundant and reiterative exercises in watching numbers grow and shrink. The game design approach is succinctly put as offering a broke... Read Full Review

Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach

Hypocritical Design Method and Greedy Management

I was on the bulletin boards for this game during its design and saw numerous splendid suggestions that could have served remarkably, during the years of development. However, the design team of Turbine had the pre-emin... Read Full Review
