Halo 4 is another quality entry in the Halo series. I'll start by saying that my first foray into the Halo universe was with Halo 3. I never owned Halo 1 or 2 for the original Xbox, but picked up the series on 360 due to my friend loving it so much. I thought the Halo 3 online multiplayer experience was really great,...

Almost Afro-tastic. The tough part about making an Afro Samurai game would be (in my opinion) getting the art direction and gameplay to allow folks to really experience all the things that made the series so notable. Specifically, finding a graphic way to bring the series animation to what should be a super bloody hack...

What you see is what you get... sort of. It's okay, What you see is what you get. Only weird thing is it comes with the steel game case and a regular game case, which actually has the game disc in it. The steel case has an empty disc slot so you can put the game disc in it if you wish to, and a slot for the metal seria...

It feels good to be Prophet. Just finished the game, and it was another epic ending. I want to start this review off with the negatives. First, I liked Crysis 2 and Crysis the most. I play on XBOX, and I was introduced to this series with Crysis 2. I preordered Crysis 3 through Amazon and received a free download of th...

Fallout 3 is NOT - NOT! - Oblivion with Guns. I had read Fallout 3 reviews, both here, and on popular gaming sites. I did a good bit of homework that initially convinced me not to get this game - not because of quality, but simply because of gore. I'm not a big fan of gore, blood and guts, and had decided to just sta...

Alive takes good things about Reflex and adds to them. I have been playing the game for the past 5 hours or so and wanted to get a quick review out, will try to follow up with more. First of all, to the negative reviewers. . . the reason that the game is less than $40 is because they intentionally left things like SX ...

Enjoyable, albeit not perfect. Enchanted Arms is a classic Japanese RPG. Though not 100% groundbreaking or original it isn't exactly like any one single other game. Unique or not, it is quite an enjoyable game and well worth it for anyone who likes RPGs. If I had to choose one previous RPG to which I could compare Enc...

Not as good as I had hoped. I am a huge fan of MechAssault 1 and have been playing it ever since it came out. I've played the second one for 4 days now and am pretty disappointed. After 1 hour of game play I was so mad I was ready to take it back but I gave it a while to be fair. This review reflects online play only. ...

Love Hate Relationship w/ the Arkham Knight. I was trying to hold off on writing a review the game until beaten but I finally gave up on it tonight at 80% mark.

HORRIBLE gameplay for an FPS. Do not buy if you play First Person Shooters, or any shooter. It's a good controller... Until you try to play an FPS.

Disappointing. I was very exciting for 'Dead Rising' after seeing some gameplay videos online. Unfortunately, I have yet to and likely never will complete this once promising title. First, the good.

Fable II is the reason you play video games. Fable II is beautiful, charming, and funny. It's everything you could possibly ask for in a spouse, -er I mean video game.

Pay for every feature, pay for the second half of every game. We wanted a change from our sony internet player, and thought the xbox 360 would do everything that that thing did and more.

Great but still Flawed. LA Noire puts you in the hard-scrabble world of a Los Angeles detective. There are stars to question, witnesses to badger, and the dark, grimy, gritty underworld to deal with.

A Solid Shooter That Holds Up Well. FEAR was one of those games that sat on my pile of shame for years, and was always on my list of games I wanted to play but just never got around to.

GTA III & Vice City weren't games, but worlds you inhabited. Grand Theft Auto III changed the way many gamers both saw and played games.

A dichotomy of sloppy design and addictive looting. Forget about how many years Too Human has spent in development, or how loud-mouthed its nonetheless endearing director, Denis Dyack, has proven over the years.

Good....but not as good as the first one. First off...I don't have X-box live; so I'm ONLY covering the single-player aspect of this game; which is, quite frankly, a little disappointing.

Arcade Racing Fun, but Misses the Feel of Monster Trucks. Monster Jam would have been a better game had it stuck with just being a good arcade-style racer.

Tetris... 15 years after it originally came out. Tetris Worlds does offer a new spin on the original game of Tetris, such as a story mode.

NBA DEAD 07. After playing Live for the 360, it made me fall asleep, it was boring and while the graphics are excellent, it just has this weird vibe.

Blazes. I love rpgs and wargames. I once spent an afternoon in Fallout III stalking the edge of the bandit hideout in a canyon; select a target, stalk, take shot, move to prepositioned followup; rinse and repeat; lob a nuke on the Gorxiya in the cage. Yes--a tad overfocused on detail. When I say I loved this game, the...

A great followup to 20-02. My friends and I have been huge fans of 20-02 since it came out a year ago. So we were naturally very excited about the prospects of 20-03. We were not at all disappointed.

20 Hours in. I was a little wary paying full price for this game, but I wanted a nice, long, involved game for the summer, so I took the plunge.

Not up to par. I accidentally submitted a review for the PC version a while ago and figured I probably should just review the item I purchased.

Old but innovative. Definitely not like call of duty. This game has a few pros, and a couple cons. The only reason I compare it to COD is because nowadays, COD is basically the baseline for all FPS. 1. Realistic feeling, destructive atmosphere. Grenades, unlike in COD, feel intense. Explosions give a loud convincing B...

Beautiful game... fun for a short while. I enjoyed Soul Calibur on the Dreamcast, even with that mongoloid controller they made you use (I did like the VMU's, though, that showed an image of your fighter twirling his/her weapon). It was different, fun, weapons-based - and the first game I had ever seen that just COMPL...

Best MMA game so far. I own both UFC Undisputed 2010 and EA Sports MMA. I believe the control system in EA Sports MMA is far superior to that of UFC 2010. In the UFC game you can win fights simply by mashing buttons. In EA sports MMA this is impossible due to the stamina system. If a fighter runs out of stamina they be...

As a family of Kinect users. I finally traded my 360 for the Xbox One mostly for the Kinect upgrade.

Do you have what it takes to survive. Let me preface this review by saying this game is amazing! Before playing this I was already reasonably sure I would like this game.

Cheap alternative to the TE stick. I actually picked this stick up for about $15 the other day, so my opinion may be a little different.

Amazing game. In my honest opinion, the first time I played Halo 4's campaign and multiplayer, I did not love it as much as I did Halo 3, more than 5 years ago.

Great game, but glitches and a poor ending tarnish this excellent game. From the start, Fallout 3 is an excellent game.

Good, But Not For Hard Core Gamers. Good points: The game has beautiful graphics the player can explore trying to get all the light seeds. The story is also new and interesting.

Originally I had a feeling that this game would ressurect the tired old FPS industry for console gamers. The developers had mo...

Step back from 12. To start off the only mode i play is online vs matches so i have less of an idea how the computer AI works as well as Be a Pro mode or any of that other stuff. I have been playing this series since nhl 01 and so far this may be the most frustrating one to date. Good: Graphics are similar to 12 (wh...

So this game is about some poor slob named Max Payne. And it's pretty awesome. I'm a pretty big Max Payne fan; so needless to say, I snatched a copy of #3 as soon as I could. I loved the first one, but found the second one a tad bit disappointing (and depressing... well, more depressing than what I was expecting) sto...

So I was hoping in the sequel things might change. Well as the Stones said " you cant always get what you want" which is so true when talking about LP2. The good t...

My old Turtle Beach headset is still in great condition. I finally get the package (delivered on time and the regular price of like $25 or whatever...

Overall Good Engine Quality: But lame controlls and more. Well, I recently purchased Jedi Knight II Outcast, STAR WARS for the XBOX version. Back in March 2002 I purchased the Jedi Knight II Outcast STAR WARS version for PC. When comparing the XBOX version to the PC version, I'd have to say the PC version has the advan...

Wow. Wow. Really that is all the review these cans need. But for the price, you probably want to hear a bit more. Sound quality is phenomenal. Comfort is unbelievable. On ear controls are one of those things that I am shocked to realize no one has tried before (as far as I know). Game volume up and down by the metal...
