PSP Review: Need for Speed Pro Street
March 19, 2008
You’ll hear me talk a lot about mobile/handheld gaming on this site, you’ll also have to suffer through my frequent frustration with half rate, crappy PSP and DS titles. Need for Speed Pro Street for the PSP fits in this category.
Unlike its predecessor, the tracks found here are closed, shifting away from open world illegal street racing. So are they fun, innovative, interesting tracks? No. Boring. Very very boring. Read more
Xbox 360 Review: Army Of Two
March 12, 2008
Today I’d like to take a look at the recently released shooter from EA Games, Army Of Two, for the Xbox360.
The touted draw to this game is that it’s really meant to be played in Co-Op mode, whether via Xbox live or split screen. This will allow the players to perform team related tasks, such as accessing higher areas by jumping off of your comrade, vehicle combat (one drives and one fires), simultaneous sniping, Read more
Xbox 360 Review: Frontlines: Fuel of War
March 4, 2008
So blame me for not being able to shake the near perfection of Call of Duty 4, but its hard to play an FPS and not compare it to that game. COD4, with a combination of its gameplay, story, and graphics managed to feel fresh, despite the same old (some may argue tired) FPS mechanics. Unfortunately, one could not feel the same way about Frontlines: Fuel of War.
PSP Review: Patapon
February 29, 2008
I like it, I can’t tell you why, but I like it. There’s something strangely addicting about hitting buttons to a beat, like a pringle, I just can’t have one. It’s music, its cartoonish 2D environment, it draws me to it pata pata pata pon, pon pon pata pon.
Oh right, I gotta write this review. There’s been some hype around this PSP release from the makers of LocoRoco. The game play is simple, and the story, interestingly deeper than you think. It’s about a tribe of people known as Patapon, a group that flourished until they were defeated by the evil Zigaton tribe. Their God, the Patapon, uses war drums to direct the tribe back to their home land.
PSP Review: WipeOut Pulse
February 26, 2008
It’s a good time to be a PSP owner, last week saw the release of WipeOut Pulse, the follow up to the PSP launch title that built a decent community. With Patapon dropping this week, and God of War in March, it’s gonna be hard to focus on one. But, I’ve found my self not being able to put WipeOut Pulse down since I picked it up last week.
