Chrome Hounds

Much like Ed Wood movies, Chrome Hounds is only really fun if you experience it with friends. This game is so much about multiplayer, it's a fault. The single player campaign plays like a series of tutorials, which is great if you use them as such, then go into the...

Dead Rising

Wow. I don't think I've ever had as mixed feelings about a game before as I have for Dead Rising. I mean, this game was FULL of flaws. However, the end result was truly much more than the sum of its parts. I think this is largely because killing zombies...

Pac-Man

I love Pac-man. It was the first arcade game I ever played, and I can honestly say it changed my life. But, there's a time and a place for everything, as they say. Pac-man happens to be timeless - so it gets some points there - but it's in...

Tomb Raider Legend

This game is a solid 7 on my Game-O-Meter. 7 typically means that I'd like to play the sequel, but maybe not at full-price. For this revival of the franchise, I might buy a sequel, but not at $60. I enjoyed playing it, but I found a...

Blazing Angels Squadrons of WWII

For me, Blazing Angels has one overwhelming draw: co-operative online multiplayer for up to 4 people. And, aside from some minor annoyances with the interface (they list the co-op levels alphabetically, not in the order they're supposed to be played), Ubisoft nailed the co-op experience. One feature I'm particularly impressed...

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

The single player campaign is largely an exercise in frustration while the multiplayer online gameplay is impressive. At first, I wondered how the two sides of the coin could be so different, then I realized they were created by two entirely different development teams. First, the single player game. Graphically,...

Astro Pop

This is a great puzzle game. It's as if the developers wanted to make a brick-based puzzle/paddle game like Arkanoid, but they had the foresight to understand that you can't make a good paddle game without a spinner controller, and out of that realization was born this nice paddle/puzzle hybrid....

Gun

This game was very cool in many ways. In many others, though, it fell short. What I liked:

The Story (except for a few things)
The character/environment design
The voice acting
The quickdraw mechanic
The final boss fight

What I found to be about average:

The gameplay
The music
The sidequests

What I didn't like:

The fact that...

Ridge Racer 6

It's a good game, but interestingly not as good as the PSP version I recently beat. I mean, I really want to give it a higher score because of the gaming achievements and online play, but that's all required in 360 games, so does the game really deserve credit for...

Doritos Dash of Destruction

I'm one achievement away from destroying this game, which wasn't hard to do. Simply playing the two different modes (one as the delivery truck and the other as the T-Rex) all the way through earns you nearly all the achievements. But that's okay. The game is free, for one. I...
