    Riviera: The Promised Land

    Another great GBA game that is somewhat under the radar. The art style in Riviera is great and I really liked how my characters didn't start off the game as total weaklings. Originally I picked up this game just because it was loosely based on Norse mythology, but even after playing it and...

    Worst Games Ever

    I tend to have a problem with all of the GTA knockoffs that are released these days. I'm thinking of 187: Ride or Die, 50 Cent Bulletproof, 25 to Life, the True Crime series, and so on. These street crime "gansta" simulators are so bad that you have to wonder how lowly the developer's...

    DS Lite June 11th

    I'm going to preorder one very soon. I must say, however, that I'm surprised that Nintendo is only bringing out one color for the DS Lite (at least at launch). They've brought out at least two colors for the last few handhelds at launch. The dark blue DS Lite that released in Japan looks...

    PS3 game improvements?

    This may sound silly, but I’m beginning to wonder if the PS3 even really exists. It’s starting to feel like the whole Phantom fiasco. All the public has seen is pre-rendered CG movies and I find it hard to believe that any finalized development kits are even out there for developers...

    Games that deserve a sequel

    I'd like to see another Deus Ex game. The second game really left the series wide open for another installment. I wonder what Warren Spector is working on right now.

    E3 Games: Which ones are you excited about

    I can't wait to see the progress Silicon Knights has made with Too Human. They have a great track record. I also hope Ubisoft releases some more information on Assassin's Creed... maybe some new screenshots or videos. That would be nice.

    Is online important For games to have

    I think it certainly does depend on the type of game. I don't think a game like Metroid Prime or Resident Evil 4 needs to be online, but there are so many other games that are screaming to be online. Sports, FPS, and racing games are a must online. Even games with great single player...

    Competitive Gaming... a sport?

    Calling competitive video gaming a sport is pretty absurd. The same way poker, darts, horseshoes and other hobbies and recreational activities shouldn't be considered true sports. As someone who ran track and played baseball during my high school years, I never equated coming home and...

    Madden 06

    Both are excellent running backs, no question about that. LaDainian is still young though, and hopefully he is still hitting his stride. Usually the cover athletes for Madden games play on teams that make it deep into the playoffs. I think the Ravens didn't do so well when Ray Lewis was on...

    Region Free Gaming - Necessary?

    Games should totally be region free. It seems like a positive progression for the gaming industry. Just how big of an impact it has on the industry may not be seen for a few years, but I doubt it will have any negative repercussions.

    Madden Revolution

    This sounds great! I like the idea of Revolution games taking full advantage of the controller. I just hope that using the unique control doesn’t result in gimmicky awkwardness and that the team dedicated solely to the Revolution version is taking the whole project seriously. On the other...

    Lost Magic?

    Wow, Lost Magic is incredibly under the radar. I find that the character art style is very reminiscent of the Advance Wars series, which is pretty darn good. I'm also excited about using the stylus to draw spell runes. I read the strength of the spell is influenced by how accurately the...

    X-Play does The Breakfast Club

    A friend recently filled me in on a Breakfast Club parody done by the cast of X-Play. I have to admit it was pretty well done. Everything from the movie is exaggerated and given a video game spin. While I don't normally watch this show, kudos to them for the job well done. Anyone else...

    Old School?

    Old School gamer here. Been playin' since the Atari 2600 and kept moving up the ranks of console gaming ever since. Any console, anytime. If I had a chance to play a game or console at a friend's house, I'd do it until I could figure out a way to get one for myself.
