Amazing quality. It's important to note that the Phantom isn't XBox 360 specific. As long as you have a device with an optical port, the audio portion of the headset should work (the microphone is a different story). For example, I plugged the Phantom into my PC's sound card and it performed just as well as when plugge...

Nothing New - Just some minor tweaks. This review mostly details the online game play, and doesn't take into consideration the campaign. The campaign is quite fun, but will only take about 5 hours to complete. Remember kiddies, this is a $60 game which will require more and more $$$$ to keep playing it online as they...

Just alright". That's the best I can say for them. PDP's "Sound of Justice" rounds out a year of over-hyped and under-delivering gaming headphones. Sure they're under $100, and I wasn't expecting top-of-the-line performance, but what PDP delivered was just okay and, in my opinion, overpriced for what it actually is. ...

First XBox 360 Traditional RPG. First off, let me say that I'm a huge role playing game fan. I have been for as long as I can remember. One of my main gripes with Microsoft's XBox was that there was a huge lack of good RPGs. It seems with the release of Oblivion, which was an action RPG, and the release of this game, w...

Full of bugs and issues, but fun while it lasts. I'll start out by saying, I got this game for half price. If they fix all of the major bugs I will probably bump this to a 5 star rating for the price I paid. So the good: The game is a blast to play. I have mostly been play multiplayer and even though the numbers are...

My first jump into the Halo Realm. I'm not an avid gamer. I don't live and die games. I don't play a whole lot, but enough to kinda know what I like and don't like. So, here is my two cents on Halo Reach. I've only played the original Halo game on the XBOX, and haven't played any of those in between. Partially because...

Pros - -A,B,X,Y are faster -Controller is contoured - bumpers are angled -D-pad works much better for first person/third person shooters (switching weapons) -Remap able buttons enable you to keep your thumb on the aiming stick while reloading, melee, or whatever you like. -Triggers are curve...

When It Comes To Space, This One's Not Worth The Trip. At its core, it's an interesting premise - a semi-open world environment set on a space station where things have gone awry. But when you peel back a few layers, you begin to see its flaws. Here are some pros and cons. + I think the atmosphere is solid. You get to...

A mindnumbingly dull action-RPG. I thought I'd enjoy this game. The initial opening (where I was a baby with perfect cognitive skills) was different, and I like me a story-based game. The very first segment that ends with you escaping from the underground bunker was the highlight of my five hours with the game. I sa...

Not that good, Disappointed. Several things wrong with this game. The 3D character models are good, but not great. For a 25th anniversary and highly anticipated sequel, the character models just don't seem perfect. The fighting moves are good, but it feels like something is missing. Also Street Fighter 4 lacks a ti...

An improvement on the Xbox 360 controller. I'm primarily a mouse/keyboard PC player, however I'll occasionally use a controller when a game works better with controller (e.g. twin-stick shooters) I've used an Xbox 360 Controller since it was out as it tends to plug right in and work out of the box.

Great, if you like the others. This is the 46th game in my collection and I say that to let you know I play EVERYTHING.

Five Years And Counting. Still Playing. This game is unique. It is the one game that is TRULY "open world" and, in essence has no ending.

Best Overall Grand Theft Auto. Let's start off with the negatives of this game, shall we? The documentation/instruction manual state that, to climb, one must use the "X" button. That is not true.

Overhyped. I preordered the limited edition of this game expecting way too much out of it.

Awesome for the first half, then gets repetitive and boring. For the first 10 levels or so, this game was one of the best games I had ever played.

Great Game the you'll be playing for a long time. Halo 3 is a great game. It is a lot of fun to play, but the biggest advantages come from playing with other people.

They're not ALLOWED to be so fast. If you think about it, the zombie survival genre has a lot in common with first-person shooters (FPS).

love it or hate it. The biggest gripe with this game seems to be combat. Of course. They've put out something pretty innovative and people aren't used to it. I think it's great.

Would be great... too bad it doesn't work. Imagine you stroll into a car dealership wanting to buy a new car. You find a beautiful car and pay full price for it only to turn the key in the ignition as nothing happens. You try turning the ignition again and the front bumper falls off. You try the ignition one more time ...

A Bittersweet Farewell To A Decade-Plus Franchise. "Medal Of Honor: Warfighter," jointly developed by Danger Close and DICE, and published by Electronic Arts, unfortunately looks like the final entry in the more-than-a-decade-long Medal Of Honor franchise. The signs have been there since 2010, when the franchise caved...

Mediocre, in every sense of the word. Otomedius is a horizontally scrolling shooter which touts itself as the successor to Konami's classic Gradius series. While it shares many of the base gameplay features as this legendary series, it unfortunately suffers many problems which results in a very mediocre experience. J...

Good, Stupid, Unoriginal, Fun. Dark Void is a very unoriginal game: You are a war-time pilot (who looks exactly like Atton Rand from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2) who gets sucked into an alternate world after flying through the Bermuda Triangle. When you get there you see that robots have turned the place i...
