August 29, 2011 Kinect Arcade – Fruit Ninja Kinect & Hole In The Wall
Lately I’ve been a sucker for new Kinect content – likely due to the tremendous dry spell of worthwhile games that has been the situation since the device launched last Christmas. Fortunately, the time has come for the Arcade market to jump into Kinect, providing easy access to some simple Kinect-based fun. With a plethora [...]

August 11, 2011 Fallout: New Vegas – Old World Blues DLC Review
Now THIS is Fallout DLC. After pitiful Fallout: New Vegas DLC performances thus far with Dead Money and Honest Hearts, gamers were given a treat at the end of July with Old World Blues. Not only is it easily the strongest DLC package for New Vegas, but it is arguably the best DLC to date [...]

February 24, 2011 Stacking – XBLA Review

February 5, 2011 Quick Look & Achievement Guide – Doritos Harm’s Way
Doritos has yet another Xbox Live Arcade title available, called “Harm’s Way,” and thus another opportunity to quickly inflate your gamerscore. This is quite possibly the easiest of all three Doritos games when it comes to nabbing achievements quickly. Last year’s Dash of Destruction made scoring 200 simple. Then, a few months back, Crash Course [...]

January 12, 2011 Kinect Sports Review
The last of my promised gaggle of Kinect launch title reviews is Rare’s take on the multi-sport sim with their lovely game Kinect Sports. It utilizes the Kinect sensor to put players into six different sports for an excellent party game that offers endless fun and good responses. It does for the Kinect what Wii [...]

January 6, 2011 Kinect – Kinectimals Review
It’s probably just my extreme adoration of animals talking, but I find this game endearing. They say it won’t cater to hardcore gamers at all. Well, I think more about my 360 than I do about food, so I class myself as pretty hardcore. And I think it’s a treat. Sure, it’s made for five [...]

January 6, 2011 Kinect – Dance Central Review
My wife has a degree in dance. She teaches dance to preschoolers through high school students. She’s been doing ballet since she was 5. Add all that up and my purchase of Dance Central is justified. I’m terrible at this game. After perfecting the finger disco during middle school, my dancing aptitude was tapped out. [...]

January 5, 2011 Kinect – Your Shape: Fitness Evolved Review
I’ve never been much for exercise. Unless, of course, you mean exercising my gamerscore. Fortunately, with Kinect, I now have a product that will allow me to exercise my body and my gamerscore at the same time. Your Shape: Fitness Evolved is one of the most advanced fitness videogames ever designed, and arguably the best [...]

January 4, 2011 Review: Kinect Adventures
Ahhh, Kinect Adventures. The flagship title. The Wii Sports of the Kinect peripheral. It’s the game that everyone with a Kinect will have – by default the most popular title for the device. What’s it like? Let’s take a look… I’ve already mentioned how well the Kinect performs on the whole. Obviously, part of Kinect’s [...]

December 24, 2010 Fallout New Vegas: Dead Money DLC Review
So, we’re doing this again. Back starting in 2008, Fallout 3 ended up reaming its millions of avid fans for another $10 every couple months as its five DLC packs were released with completely satisfying gaps between them. An ample length passed between the last Fallout 3 DLC and the launch of New Vegas to [...]
