Real Boxing
‘On-the-go’ boxing games aren’t at the top of my list for must play games, but Real Boxing for the PS Vita makes an honest effort to combine real boxing with some fun arcade elements thrown into the mix. My first impression is that the game mirrors the Fight Night franchise...
Shadow Warrior
Once upon a time in the 90’s there was a videogame developer called 3D Realms. They were in their prime with hits such as Duke Nukem, Blood, Rise of the Triad, and a little first person shooter called Shadow Warrior. Fast forward to today, their most popular games legacy lives...
Grand Theft Auto is nothing short of a pop culture phenomenon. Whether you’re a gamer or not you’ve likely heard of it. It is a game that has managed to permeate nearly every household in North America it seems and everyone is talking about it. It’s so huge in fact...
Puppeteer
As the current generation of consoles winds down and my focus begins to shift towards the next-generation I find myself trying to finish off many games that, for whatever reason, I hadn’t gotten around to playing or finishing. Puppeteer wasn’t on that list, but boy am I glad I had...
KickBeat
Music games are dead right? It’s all about Dance Central and the Just Dance franchises when it comes to music/rhythm games these days as the golden era of Rock Band and Guitar Hero is gone for the most part. So, why then would Zen Studios make a music/rhythm game for...
NHL 14
The core gameplay of the NHL series has not really differed much in the last few years. EA has been busy tweaking and adding from game to game to enhance the already fantastic feel. They have employed a “If it ain’t broke why fix it?” attitude. The results speak for...
Madden NFL 25
The leap from Madden NFL 12 to Madden NFL 13 was significant. We saw the addition of Connected Careers, the new Infinity Engine where no two tackles are supposed to look alike and the addition of Total Control Passing. By no means was Madden NFL 13 the definitive Madden experience...
Who doesn’t love to create a world where they are in charge? I know for one that I don’t mind it, nor do many of the children out there who love to create with their imagination, my own kids included. Now take this and add the world of Disney to...
Saints Row IV
It is over-the-top, wacky and downright nonsensical. There isn’t much that makes a heck of a lot of sense. There are many WTF moments and other instances where I am questioning the path the developers are taking me on. There are even some occasions where I say to myself: “that...
Mars: War Logs
Mars: War Logs, previously only available to PC gamers, makes the jump onto consoles with not much changed and sadly not much improved. That’s not to say that you can’t find some good in this title if you can accept it for what it is. It’s a budget level western...
Many who enjoy the thrill of action and war in video games will head towards the newest and most popular first person shooters, but there are others who enjoy the more tactical options that the real time strategy genre offers. Company of Heroes 2 by Relic Entertainment is a fine...
Marvel Heroes
Comics were always a big factor in my life. I had quite a fondness for the Marvel Universe in particular, with its wide assortment of heroes and villains. Monthly, I would collect various comic books, watch the many animated shows, and even tried my hand at drawing some of the...
