The UnderGarden delivers a unique world, that offers a beautiful environment, and a fitting soundtrack that sets the mood for each level. Customizing the appearance of the mysterious characters quite enjoyable, and searching for the collectibles can pump more time into this title. But frustrating controls, that lead to unnecessary...
Dead Space 2
This is what a sequel should be. Visceral Games improved on what made the first game great, but still kept to the game’s survivor horror theme. There is a lot of replay value offered here; from different suits to collect that each carries their own specific traits, to five difficulty...
Anyone playing should be prepared for some frustration along the way. Although the game is generally easy, in the sense that gathering lives and rings is really not as difficult as in previous games, the levels themselves still have a lot of „artificial difficulty” as we like to call it....
Luckily enough, the game’s length is short overall, but perfect for the game. I’d say it doesn’t take more than 6-8 hours to beat the game even to 100%. The game is simple, the quests are simple and sometimes similar, the combat is simple, and due to this it can...
Enslaved’s one of the best new IP’s to come out this year. There are some problems but it’s strengths easily makes up for it’s downfalls and then some. It’s not one aspect of the game that makes it stand out, it’s how it embodies everything into a great experience from...
Dead Rising 2
In short, Dead Rising 2 delivers in the best way and the only way a video game should; entertainment. While it lacks polish, it is truly a fun and engaging experience and after finishing the story there’s a good chance you’ll want to visit Fortune City again.
Halo: Reach
Whilst the game isn’t perfect, it is one of the better ones Bungie has put out on the market. The campaign is short lived and repetitive, yet it is still crazy fun and well thought out. The multiplayer is spectacular with endless unlocks, gametypes, and ways of play in general....
Limbo is easily worth it’s price, there is nothing quite like it. Never has a game shown me so many emotions in such a small space of time. From fear, to anger, to laughter. It’s a brilliant experience from beginning to end. If you loved Braid, you will love this....

Mechanically speaking, the shooting has been raised to the standards of most elite third person shooters. The much criticized inventory system and Mako driving sections of the original have been discarded and instead replaced by an economic system based on mining, which I can recognize as being the worst part...
You will either love or hate Final Fantasy XIII. Square-Enix made a lot of changes to really immerse you in the story and for the most part this works, leading to one of their strongest casts to date, I just wish they did more with the world around them instead...
The music is exceptional for a game of a low entry price. The tunes will reflect the mood as well as the setting of each stage and is never an obstruction to your constant need to plant and collect. The Plants vs. Zombies music video is a reflection to the...
