Max Payne 3
- PS3
Max Payne is one of Rockstars longest and most successful franchises, a personal favourite of mine. When Rockstar announced they were going to release a current gen Max Payne I was ecstatic. Then I learnt that Remedy games were not going to return for Max Payne 3. Rockstar Vancouver the new studio at the helm was met with harsh criticism from fans and journalists alike. I would be lying if i wa...

Medal of Honor: Warfighter
- Xbox 360
As Call of Duty continues its annual releases, EA’s answer against their competitor’s tactic is by alternating between the Medal of Honor (MoH) and Battlefield series each year. After the sufficient critical and commercial reception of the 2010 MoH reboot, Danger Close heeded the call to make a sequel. Now having control over all aspects of the title and sporting the jaw-dropping Frostbite 2...

Strike Suit Zero
- PC
How are there so few space sims anymore? It seems like the easiest and most awesome kind of game to make. You just make a pretty skybox (spacebox?) Make a ship for the player, make a similar ship with AI controlling it that you copy-paste a whole bunch and bam! You got a game. Well, this is the too-empty-for-too-long niche that Strike Suit Zero tries to fill, and it throws in a kickass anime...

Don't Starve
- PC
The official Don't Starve website (found here: http://www.dontstarvegame.com/ ) calls the game "An Uncompromising Wilderness Survival Game Full of Science & Magic!" I call it a game where you die a lot, and I love it. The premise of the game is as simple as it gets: do not starve. Cast onto a seemingly deserted island, you must gather your wits about you, prepare to face each coming ni...

Injustice: Gods Among Us
- PS3
The development team behind Injustice: Gods Among Us are no strangers to the fighting game genre or to the DC Universe cast of super heroes and villains. NetherRealm Studios, formerly known as Midway Chicago, is the studio behind the popular and successful Mortal Kombat series. They were also the studio behind the crossover title, Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe and more recently, the 2011 re-boo...

BioShock: Infinite
- Xbox 360
I thought that I should take the time to review Bioshock Infinite because, as someone who’s never played any of the previous Bioshock games, I felt that I could offer a valuable, unbiased opinion. I’ve witnessed all of the hype – from the 10 out of 10 ratings to the varied criticisms on what’s considered a profound ending to an even more profound plot. The real question to anyone clutching thei...

Tomb Raider
- Xbox 360
The game introduces a young Lara Croft and a crew who are seeking an adventure and are bound to a group of stormy islands known as the Dragons's triangle in which her ship crashes separating Lara from the surviving crew. The first few hours show how Lara doubts her abilities but also show how she has to embrace what she is destined to become. From an average regular person to a survivor, th...

BioShock: Infinite

So I have a thing about late reviews, but whatever, I'm here to review Bioshock Infinite! SPOILERS BELOW! The Bioshock series is well known for the amazing deep, moving stories we get from these games. And Bioshock Infinite is no different. But there are still some major issues that were in the other games that are still present in this game. And that's why I just shake my head when peopl...

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate
- 3DS
Growing up during the Nintendo Entertainment Console days, many old school gamers remember playing classic Castlevania side scrolling, hack and slash games. The goal was always simple. Infiltrate Dracula's castle and destroy the evil monster. Over the years, the Castlevania franchise has evolved and most recently experienced a reboot back in 2010 that was titled Castlevania: Lords of Shadows. M...

Fire Emblem: Awakening
- 3DS
While most gamers know the Fire Emblem series from Roy and Marth’s appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee, the series has actually been around since the original Famicom. Nintendo finally localized the seventh game in the series in 2003, simply titled: Fire Emblem. Since then, a majority of the games in the Fire Emblem series have been localized outside of Japan. Fire Emblem: Awakening further p...

There are few things more satisfying than finding a sleeper hit before it’s taken off. I would be a hipster and brag that I liked this game before it was cool, but being hipster is too mainstream. (Let that sink in for a second.) But it is the kind of awesome, little game that I need to tell all the cool people I know about it. And YOU became cool when you started reading my writing. Congratul...

BioShock: Infinite
- Xbox 360
It's been almost six years since we were introduced to the original BioShock experience; a game that carries a heavy weight to its name for mostly positive reasons and you would be hard pressed to find someone who didn't like it, nevermind know of it. Following three years later, a rather disappointing sequel was developed by 2K Marin with a multiplayer component (no surprise there.) Some claim...

The quick bits: Fire Emblem: Awakening Available on 3DS via download or retail Total playtime: 39 hours (so far) Worth it? Hell yeah. Pro-tip: buy a retail copy while it's still available I'm a bit late to the party, folks. The die-hard Fire Emblem fans have already bought this game and beaten it a dozen times, whereas everyone else has already written Fire Emblem: Awakening off as...we...

Tomb Raider
- PC
Tomb Raider is a curious game. It starts with a bang, rather, an explosion. The ship she was sailing on gets, well, shipwrecked. Lara Croft is now a battered survivor on an island. The initial prospect of playing a brand new characterization of Lara Croft was exciting. They wanted her to have real human emotions. Crystal Dynamics actually made her the star, and not her well-endowed figure....

The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct
- PS3
Well, Michael Rooker, a good game with Merle and Daryl would be better than that. Yes, Activision has once again milked a licensed product much to the dismay of the video game community. For anyone who actually bought this game, your wallet has successfully performed harikiri on itself with your pocket knife. That is how bad this game is. I feel sorry for Walking Dead fans in particular. I am a...

BioShock: Infinite

The original Bioshock set the standard for single-player gaming this generation, much like Half-Life 2 did the generation before. It is only fitting that Irrational Games bookend the HD era with Bioshock Infinite, which has once again set a new standard for single-player experiences this generation. You play as Booker Dewitt, a former pinkerton (a government protection agent and detective) i...

Crysis 3
- Xbox 360
I only recently jumped aboard the Crysis bandwagon last year when I picked up the second instalment for an outrageously unexpected price of $5 at the local Mom & Pop used game store and quite honestly, I was impressed. I never usually get lucky with impulse game purchases; I wanted to try something new and didn't have the time to actually look around as much as I would have liked. I saw Crysis...

Minecraft

I first started playing Minecraft several years ago. I heard about the game on a blogger's website, and I thought I'd give it a try. At the time, Markus "Notch" Persson was selling the unfinished game for $10 with the promise that any future updates would be free to those who decided to support the game in its beta form. A few weeks after buying it, I read an article announcing the game passed...

Back in 2007, we were introduced to an exciting new underwater city named Rapture. The city of Rapture was the setting to one of this generations most amazing new game franchises, Bioshock. Fast forward to 2013 and we once again embark in a new adventure in the Bioshock universe. Only this time, there is no underwater city. There is no Rapture. This new adventure takes us up to the skies, in a...

Now everybody had high hopes for Bioshock Infinite. It was the first time we stepped out of Rapture and after the disappointing Bioshock 2 we had to see what was going to happen. I must say Irrational didn't disappoint. Bioshock Infinite is a near perfect game with small things keeping it from being the very best. This review does not include spoilers. Bioshock Infinite's story took me a...
