One of the most memorable moments from 2013’s E3 press conferences, at least for me, was the unveiling of Riley the dog, being played by an actual, mocapped dog in the upcoming Call of Duty: Ghosts. Based solely on that video, I wanted to like Call of Duty: Ghosts. I love dogs and the sight […]

Gran Turismo 6 arrived on the 15th anniversary of the Gran Turismo series, ending its run on the previous generation of hardware in much the same way as Gran Turismo 4 did on the Playstation 2. With the next generation upon us, this may well be the Playstation 3’s swan song, one last hurrah from […]

Disclaimer: As of this writing, I have not played Gran Turismo 6 but I did order it a couple of days ago and it’s on the way. Everything written from here on is based on the impression I have gotten from reviewers and people who have played the game. So, grain of salt and all […]

I know it’s considered quite tacky to complain about free stuff. It makes you seem ungrateful, entitled, spoiled and bratty. But I’ve held my tongue long enough. Microsoft, your Games with Gold promotion sucks. There. I said it. Granted, a few of the games I’ve gotten through the promotion have been games I’ve never owned […]

I don’t tend to enjoy games that are artsy for the sake of being artsy. I’ve played a few of those. You know the type. “Games” that go out of their way to be “art”. As much as I support the “games as art” argument, I don’t feel games should try to be art, just […]

Killzone. The “Halo killer”. The game that was supposed to be Sony’s big exclusive franchise that would make us all forget about Halo. Well, that didn’t happen, since the first game in the series turned out to be quite the mediocre game, at best. One has to question what Sony’s motive was for even making […]

So, earlier today, I decided to play a little bit of Mass Effect 3 multiplayer to do my part for the Operation Alloy multiplayer event that’s going on this weekend. So, after promoting three characters to contribute to the community totals, I decided to try to level up my now level 1 Adept and try […]

Spoiler Alert!!!: I don’t make any attempts to hide or gloss over any potential spoilers so if you want to go into this DLC unaware of plot details, avoid reading this review. You have been warned. Being the massive Mass Effect 2 fan I am, when Bioware announced that they were releasing one more DLC […]

Gran Turismo 5, a game that was long speculated to be vaporware by many people within the gaming community, is finally here. Polyphony Digital’s follow up to 2005’s Gran Turismo 4, released on the PS2 was nearly six years in the making and has seen its fair share of publicity because of it. Expectations were […]

I can’t believe I’m playing this. After nearly six years of development, Gran Turismo 5 is finally spinning inside my PS3. To be honest, the cynic in me never thought I’d see this day. With each passing year, it seemed like Gran Turismo 5 was less and less likely to ever see the light of […]

I’ll admit it; I’m not a huge fan of fighting games. I’ve never been a fan of memorizing long lists of combos and special moves for each of any one game’s roster of fighters, heck I’ve never been a fan of memorizing the combos for just my favorite characters. Thus, I’ve always been what is […]
