I've had some trouble in the past putting a numerical value on appreciation. That all changed when I did my review on Earth Defence Force: Insect Armageddon which I gave a 3/10. The trouble came when friends thought my score was 'too low' a...

Earth Defense Force made a splash in Japan as The Chikyu Bouygun which translates roughly into The Mysterians. As a budget PS2 title with a ton of content and a great multi-player component, it did well and spanned a few sequels. The seco...

Here is my breakdown of Duke Nukem Forever: -The entire game is based on an unspoken irony. -Duke Nukem's charisma, comes from his lack of charisma. -Duke Nukem's personality comes from a one dimensional personality. -Duke Nukem's greatest ...

All Sony and Microsoft have to do is release a fully integrated tablet, or a tablet with a screen to compete. This Wii U thing isn't next generation gaming. Nintendo has made official comments about their stock dropping more than 10% sin...

I have since it's debut anticipated the release of this game with enough zeal to call local retailers every week and ask if they have the collectors or special edition in their systems yet. I have called retailers perhaps more about this ...

Have you heard this? The SONY PlayStation NGP (Next Generations Platform/Portable) is now called 'Vita'. Now lets be honest, whatever this new portable dream machine is, it isn't a PSP 2. PSP has seen four alterations to it's primary for...

Do you like driving simulators or arcade racing games? For awhile it was hard for me to tell the difference between a driving-sim and an arcade racer. But when Burnout and Project Gotham came out, almost side by side, that was the defining ...

The Deus Ex cyberpunk series has always had this incredible outlook of the future, albeit a dystopian outlook, but a very speculative and in many ways optimistic view of sciences, and where modern science may be leading us. Deus Ex: Human ...

You are half a game. What happened to your single player? What happened to character development and cohesion? Maybe it's asking too much to have every FPS that has a well-rounded multiplayer to have a foundational campaign similar in brea...

Rare, or Rareware, the developer that created Conkers Bad Fur Day was in this trend of creating these incredibly vibrant adventure games. All of which were successful. Rare continued the trend of making these kinds of colourful adventure ...

What is Bayou Billy? Bayou Billy is at its core three well made games in one. It's a street brawling game, it's an offensive driving game, and it's a shooting gallery game. All under one narrative, be it a hairline narrative, backed ...

So much concept art to unlock! So little time! Ever wonder why so many games that come out have behind the scenes footage? Or why DVD's and BluRays are just teeming with so much post and even sometimes pre production materials? My guess i...

I've been criticized in the past over some anecdotes I've given on video games and entertainment media before. But this guy GamersGettingPlayed he does it and says it all 4realz. GamersGettingPlayed is a 57 year old man who plays video ga...

Motion controls, full motion detection, fucking rail shooters and mirror plates and razors and some kind of fine white powder on rails. I like how people who find a measure of success, accolades, or praise in the video game industry get to...

You are not gamers. You are consumers. What you consume is called 'consumer electronics'. I can accept this. In fact, if and when video games are brought up in conversation I don't call myself a 'gamer' and I frown upon that paraphrase. My...

When I picked up my giant collectors edition of DCUO on launch I really wanted to play it. When I got home, and input all my bonus codes, flipping through the sweet art book and comics, looking over the wing span of the batman statuette fro...

Mission failure! Try again! How is it a failure if you can try again? Attempt thwarted more like. Puzzle games, hell games in general, having to start a level over isn't a bad thing. Especially if the game is challenging and you have to ap...

I rate this reviewing game a (4/5). Four self-righteous jack asses out of five. Or however many bloggers, youtubers, and the collective of folks who believe they have the integrity and self-worth to review pieces of media. Yeah, howeve...

*The following post is full of assertions. Incredibly amounts of assertions, that will be addressed properly in a future post once the game is released. I revel in a good story when a game tells one. And I deeply enjoy a game all the mor...

The idea came to mind to create some kind of editorial, exposition, rant monster out of the history of blood, guts, and gore in video games. When it came to make my time line, which is to say, as soon as I went to do my research I found thi...
