Persona 4

Persona 4. A lot like Person 3. Which is good.

Persona 4 is a JRPG that mixes party stat-and-skill based combat with simulations of social interaction. Neither of these aspects of the game is revolutionary, but the way in which they effect each-other most definitely ... Read Full Review

Bully

Power, Chicks, Respect - Live Out Your Pubescent Fantasies!

Bully gets almost everything right. The tone is playful and sometimes silly, but the game is always engaging. Bully allows you to do everything you would have wanted to do when you were 15 (well, almost). Controls and ma... Read Full Review

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

A stunning achievement.

I have been playing single-player CPRGs for so long that I once had to type the word “tiltowait” when I wanted to blow stuff up. Over the years, technology has changed CPRGs, but not necessarily improved them. Some games... Read Full Review

Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends

A fun, well thought out RTS.

Rise of Legends (RoL) succeeds in advancing the RTS genre, if for no other reason than it has, at last, done away with the obligatory 10 minutes or so of economic management prior to first contact with the enemy. In part... Read Full Review

Rome: Total War

Deep, addictive strategy game. The heir of Civilization and Master of Orion. Marred by bugs, alas.

Rome: Total War is an awesome game in scope and depth. It is more than fun; it is absorbing, engrossing, -in fact, mesmerizing. With R:TW, The Creative Assembly has realized not only the potential that they themselves h... Read Full Review

Sid Meier's Pirates!

Fun, but not deep.

Sid Meier’s Pirates! (SMP) is a fun game that easily keep you up all night, trapped in the “one more turn” zone that serious gamers know so well. No, SMP is not actually a turn based game, but the gameplay does divide up... Read Full Review

Fable

The Greatest Game You'll Ever Hate

Fable is the most fun game of this kind that I have played in years, -in fact, ever. If you have done any reading about it, you know that despite this almost universal acknowledgement, the game has generated something cl... Read Full Review

Gladius

The Demo is actually better than the game.

Gladius offers something you can find almost nowhere else on the X-box, -a party level RPG with tactical, turn-based combat. You will spend the majority of your time in the game’s various arenas, fighting the good fight.... Read Full Review

DOOM 3

Doom 3 is an amazing first person shooter for the following reasons: Best graphics engine to date. Intense white knuckle action in fights. Spooky as hell (heh heh). For us hella old school types, seeing revenants an... Read Full Review

Dancing Stage Unleashed

I did not know I was dead, but DDR brought me back to life.

I am making no effort to be balanced, objective, or even reasonable in my review of DDR. The score I have given this game is meaningless in every context but one -this game made me thin, and now chicks dig me. So wha... Read Full Review

Halo (Xbox Collection)

Most people like Halo a lot, and there’s a lot of reason to like it. One thing most people don’t mention much when they talk about Halo is that the missions are often quite repetitive. The Level “Assault on the Control R... Read Full Review

Age of Mythology

Age of Mythology is probably the best RTS game yet made. The three sides each feel completely different, and the different combinations of major and minor gods make the factions highly customizable. If the game has a... Read Full Review

Black & White

Worst. Review. Ever. Greg, Greg, Greg. What were you thinking? I can't think of a single thing this game tried to do that it ended up doing well. After the horrific lock-you-in intro that makes you play for 20 minutes... Read Full Review
