A huge vortex of fun. Its been quite a while since I've written a review for a game - ah, the heady halcyon days of being a writer for Your Sinclair magazine seem so far away in the past. (And frankly they are; that was 16 years ago, so if you remember that mag, you're getting old). But I really wanted to write a revie... | video-games_xbox |
Best situational tactics game In a long while. While I did not play the original XCOM but did play quite a bit of Civ 3, I greatly respect Firaxis for putting forward this reboot. Here is what I like most about the game: it is principally a situational tactics simulation in the context of a smooth macro-warfare strateg... | video-games_xbox |
Steep price - Design isn't great - RELIABILITY IS TERRIBLE (need a third replacement in 18 months (careful use. Design flaw: Though this design feels more comfortable in still hands than the 360 controller, the way the back of the triggers stick out obstructs the rest of your fingers when trying to click the bumpers. S... | video-games_xbox |
5 seems like the right price. There are very few things good about this game. I will list the bad things first.
The graphics are worse than the origanal halo game. The people only move their mouthed up and down to talk. They only have one way of walking to.
The voicing is terrible. The worst ive ever heard. This Bras... | video-games_xbox |
Advanced guitar players will be disappointed. I am an advanced player. I bought this because I thought it would be a fun way to learn new guitar licks, practice new techniques, and learn new songs. I'm disappointed because of the following reasons:
1. The game is geared towards new users, so it's a little unbearable... | video-games_xbox |
Thoroughly deserving; hands-down must have. Let me say up front that this is, without a doubt, the most cinematic game I've ever played. They weren't lying when they said this game boasted "credible digital actors." You won't find a comparable performance out there anywhere. This game has the best voice-acting and dire... | video-games_xbox |
Resolution matters. First let me say that I am a big fan of the Xbox 360. I think it was great for consoles, forced sony to be more competitive and forced Sony to try harder with supporting software (friends lists,apps etc) and now they are now standards. As far as games and features, the 360 beat the PS3 hands down.
... | video-games_xbox |
Good but not the greatest system ever. Not sure where to start here... I got mine for $40 from a friend that had the RROD problem that most Xbox 360's seems to have. That right there is a big turn off for this system. I fixed it temporarily, but I ordered the X clamp mod to fix it permanently. (hopefully!!) I have to f... | video-games_xbox |
Ehhhh, it's an improvement. I've grown more and more disillusioned by the Madden franchise as years have passed; having been an every year guy from '98 to '06, I finally tried to start speaking more with my wallet by abstaining from giving EA my $ every year. With that said, I did pick up both '15 and '16. Like many o... | video-games_xbox |
Being Realistic. Just to verify with online threads and reviews, yes this game is glitchy and maybe it was mad to fufill a contract but if you are looking to play a game that has those challenges in Tony Hawk games that are like "score this many points" or "collect all the SKATE letters", this game has that. There have... | video-games_xbox |
Competition for Call of Duty? Think again. When I heard that EA was renewing the Medal of Honor series I was VERY excited. When I was younger, I loved the Medal of Honor Rising Sun and Frontline games for PS2 and I really thought the newest addition to the series would top MW2 but I couldn't have been more wrong. I wil... | video-games_xbox |
Spectacular. Imagine: you round a corner, minding your own business, when suddenly you're faced with three guards, swords on their backs and automatics in their hands, ten meters away. How unfortunate... for them. You effortlessly intercept the incoming arms fire with your sword as you rapidly close the distance, and d... | video-games_xbox |
Small issues aside, this is one hell of a game. There are a couple gripes you'll hear throughout the gaming community about Halo, the killer-app for the new Xbox. Make no mistake about it, people who focus on these gripes know nothing of what true entertainment is. I will pick out these small issues and defend them, be... | video-games_xbox |
Fail. I will never buy another Turtle Beach product. They used to make great sound cards which is why I went with this headset. I know that Turtle Beach has newer headsets out now that may be of better quality and may last longer but if I were anyone looking at their headsets at this point I would steer clear.
I hav... | video-games_xbox |
Gears of War + BioShock. When I played this it reminds me a lot of the following games:
Gears of War
BioShock
Dead Space
Dark Sector
The game it reminds me the most is BioShock due to the art style not to mention the hand in front of you to use your abilities but the monsters remind me more of Dark Sector. Dead Space... | video-games_xbox |
Welcome to Jurassic Park . The first I heard of this game was on Youtube, and when I watched small previews of it I told myself I had to get this game, so being a solid Amazon searcher I looked this game up on Amazon and found it, I bought it used, the new version was way to expensive for my pocket. In fact it arrived ... | video-games_xbox |
Must have! Huge open world, constant movement, fun characters-Unique. Wow what a game this is. I'm a casual gamer and mostly use my Xbone as a video player for Blu-ray, DVD and webflix. I'll play a little here and there but am rarely fully immersed in a game, and usually I'll play an hour or so into a game and then nev... | video-games_xbox |
Someone burned some money in vain building this game. Okay, first of all let me state, that I am a "mech" fan... If its a game that has mechs, I'll give it a shot if I can.
I had high expectations when I ordered this game after watching some footage and playing the Demo. But the demo doesn't do the game justice, as in... | video-games_xbox |
Highly Recommended (I own both Xbox One and PS4. Admittedly, I sat there at E3 2013 watching Microsoft's and Sony's press conferences thinking: "wow... PS4 is going to crush Xbox One." But since buying both consoles at launch, I barely turn on my PS4. Despite some flaws, the Xbox One is superb.
*** Key: -Positive -Neg... | video-games_xbox |
Not a fallout game,, this is its own. This is an oblivion in a new theme. Do not think of it as a sequel to fallout.
One would think that a game 10 years in the making and with the title of the long enduring fallout series would have the feel of fallout. No, not so much.yes, it uses the name and theme, but not the feel... | video-games_xbox |
Liking what I see, but there's room for improvement. To be clear, I'm neither a fan of any brand or system so let's strike out the Xbox/PS vs PC vs Mac...etc. I like a good product. Period. Further, buying this Xbox so soon after launch I expected bugs and problems. This is a day one product people, what have you ever ... | video-games_xbox |
Fails to live up to Soul Calibur greatness. I love Soul Calibur, but I gave this game 3 stars for the following reasons:
PROS:
1. Star Wars characters Yoda, Darth Vadar, and The Apprentice are fun to play with. What's not awesome about controlling the little Jedi master as he flips and dashes around screen with a l... | video-games_xbox |
Highly Underrated. This may be the most misunderstood and underrated game of 2007. I was weary purchasing it because of the mostly negative reviews from game critics. GameSpot and XPlay were in the minority giving Assassin's Creed a high rating. Their reviews usually align with my tastes and I thankfully listened. Whe... | video-games_xbox |
Best Tiger Woods game in a long time. I've played Tiger Woods PGA Tour games on my Xbox for many years. There have been some ups and some downs (yeck...remember the caddie?) So I went into this not expecting to be impressed, given some of the things I've read about servers being down and game bugs galore. I can hone... | video-games_xbox |
A game that has raised the bar. I have taken the time to click through all of the reviews so far and have read all of the 1 - 3 star ratings and most of the 4 stars.
What I have discovered is these low ratings on this review board are most likely written either by die hard fans of other gaming systems... or the competi... | video-games_xbox |
This will change your Fitness Life. I've never been a very fitness oriented person. I did a sport (Swimming) in highschool because my parents made me.
Now that I'm in my late 20s I realized I really need to start making Fitness more of a priority before my metabolizm catchs up with me and I'm overweight like the rest... | video-games_xbox |
Is This Franchise Turning Into 'Madden. I'll have to admit that I haven't purchased Madden in a couple of years. Why? Because it's the same game more or less every single year. The Modern Warfare franchise is beginning to look like that's 'how it rolls'.
The campaign, much like MW2, is only going to give you about ... | video-games_xbox |
Close to perfection. <div id="video-block-R7M6E841NJFCK" class="a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-mini video-block"></div><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/D1kI-imCIiS.mp4" class="video-url"><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.... | video-games_xbox |
For hardcore gamers only; interactive novel; not that great. First of, yes, Yu Suzuki is a genius and I admire what he's attempted to do here. Very valiant effort on this series that may just be ahead of its time.
I just got this the other day and have been trying to MAKE myself play it. That should tell you something ... | video-games_xbox |
Feeble Attempt to Resurrect Guitar Hero as a Corporate Cash Cow. Long, but complete, review. I have been a long-time Guitar Hero fan, owning every game they have ever released. This isn't the worst game they have made, but it is close. I will be reviewing the guitar playing experience on both the Xbox 360 and Xbox O... | video-games_xbox |
Middle of the Road Hack and Slash Title. Since no one's reviewed this one yet, I thought I would give you guys a rundown of the basic gameplay to help you decide whether or not to buy Viking: Battle for Asgard
Basically you start off as a viking warrior tasked with defeating the evil hordes threatening your villages. ... | video-games_xbox |
Instant favorite. From the opening sequence to the end of the game, it's a solid action/adventure game. It plays very much like Legend of Zelda or Castlevania in that you have to collect certain items and can revisit previous areas to explore for hidden or previously unattainable treasure. The graphics are great, if no... | video-games_xbox |
Awesome. Received the delivery in 2 days (Thanks Prime!) Opened the package, opened the side of my XBox, slid the drive in and pushed it down until it clicked, started the XBox and the drive was immediately recognized, it even has the Microsoft logo on the screen next to the storage device. Transferred all of my game ... | video-games_xbox |
I knew it was going to be bad. Everything falls short. I bought this game on a download at the XBOX Live marketplace, for $19.00. I got what I paid for.
My summary is simple to start off with, the developer cut and pasted this title together. They expanded on elements of the first game that were lacking, the social th... | video-games_xbox |
Objectives Drag This Game Down. YS is the best exercise game I've seen so far. Which is a shame because it's far, far from perfect.
Overall, it's a pretty fun. The workouts are good and definitely got a couch potato like me gasping for air. Some of my favorites are wall-breaker, Stomp, Boot Camp, & Boxing.
It's the O... | video-games_xbox |
The Almost, Almost Perfect Game......But. Let me first say that after having played madden 15 which was a very discouraging undertaking on many levels, I cancelled my pre-order for 16!
However, wanting to play football, I said to myself, well let's see what happens with 16!.
For some reason, it seems sacrilegious for E... | video-games_xbox |
My dreams are... realized? Hmmm. Well...after about... oh... SIX YEARS we finally get this game. Rumored in 05-06, this game was to be an Xbox 360 launch title, but it kept getting delayed. Years... years... years... I looked at the same lame screenshots for years... Then on September 6th 2011, my prayers were finally ... | video-games_xbox |
Could Have Been More. I'm a big Alice in Wonderland fan, and I enjoyed this game's predecessor immensely. I was definitely looking forward to getting my hands on this game and jumping back into American McGee's warped vision of Wonderland. Unfortunately, I found myself rather disappointed.
The story in this follow up ... | video-games_xbox |
Forza 3 Single Player Mode. The game comes in two discs, one is the game, the other an installation disc for the rest of the car lineup and other details.
The good:
There's very deep paint job editor which allows to save your work for a single car or for multiple cars. Buy a car of any color available from the manufa... | video-games_xbox |
DiRTy Racing. Arcade or simulation. If you ask me, DiRT is a mixture of both arcade and simulation. For traditional rally races, I would say they maintain a realistic level while the new race types added to this game come as arcade races. I guess these types of races and vehicle handling where created to attract the at... | video-games_xbox |
one of the best football games....PERIOD. i bought NFL Fever because of all the hype, and it was true, this game is awsome! it's easy to play and easy to learn. if you're not used to the XBox controls like me, i'll take you a little bit to learn them, but other than that, this game is awsome. Here are some of my pros a... | video-games_xbox |
Not for all playing styles. Played Cod4, MW2, and Black OPs. Prestiged many times. Have been playing this one for 5 hours of multi-player and a bit longer on private mode just running around learning the maps, and so far I am missing Black Ops way of doing things. It's just OK in my book. As others have said it does... | video-games_xbox |
Solid sequel, but lacking some previous features. As a huge fan of the RockBand series, I'd been really looking forward to acquiring RockBand 4, and here are some initial thoughts about it after playing it the first few evenings.
Below I've outlined the pros and cons important to me, which are mostly related to featur... | video-games_xbox |
Worthwhile Reboot. Truth being I never played the original Tomb Raider. It just was not my thing at the time.
However, I was very interested in this title and I think that its a very good game and my major problems with it are relatively minor.
PRO:
*New modern look. Lara does not jump around with tripple-D breast m... | video-games_xbox |
Blah. Sometimes it's the most basic things that make or break a game, Madden 16 fails pretty miserably at many of these. For starters we're talking an insane load time. Like crazy. Last check using a stopwatch on my phone the load time came in at 3 minutes 26 seconds, this for a game which is already installed on your ... | video-games_xbox |
Game of the Year? Can I get a hell yes. Packaging first:
You get the game itself, a small duffel bag, a small but informative hardcover art book, a cd with music selections from the game and my favorite item, a safety deposit box complete with a pair of keys and a cool Rockstar Games logo keychain. This in itself make... | video-games_xbox |
Not a great game, but good co-op fun. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is a pretty fun party game. I went through the game with 2 players in co-op, and completed both storylines. For the second playthough, the game offers a "Legendary" difficulty which is sort of a New Game+ option where you keep your levels but get a corres... | video-games_xbox |
Stacked up well vs the Polk 4 Shot. I bought both these and the Polk 4 Shot's and ended up returning the 4 Shots after my trial. The XO7's, while expensive, provide the best experience in a wireless headset I've had.
Pros:
Balance - The treble, mid and bass all sound great. This is where they really shined compared to... | video-games_xbox |
whatever. EA still hasn't gotten Bond right. It's not terrible, but it's not great.
First of all, it's pretty short. 11 missions, and not very long missions at that. The a.i. is tolerable, but the only reason the a.i. gets you is because the game throws wave after wave of them at you, not because they're actually inte... | video-games_xbox |
Had a blast blasting the Covies. I will try to keep this short since I'm sure there are lots of long reviews. I lucked into this Limited Edition at the low price of $27.99 with Prime shipping, otherwise I'd never have bought it; I'm mostly over the urge to get 'extras' with my games at this point since I'm running out ... | video-games_xbox |
Addictively Repetitive. The comparison between Borderlands and Diablo has been made hundreds of times by now, but it's still an apt one. If you enjoy the repetitive action and random positive reenforcement in the form of loot or level gaining present in Diablo, WoW, or hordes of other similar titles, you will probably ... | video-games_xbox |
Conflicted Gamer. This review is difficult to write because owning the Xbox 360 has been one of the most enjoyable AND most frustrating experiences of my gaming life. I owned a PS2 and an Xbox and felt no allegiance to either console when this current generation of gaming consoles emerged. I bought my Xbox 360 on Bla... | video-games_xbox |
Somewhat fun, but tedious to play. My review is focused on what held this game back from being more than 3 stars As others have stated the graphics and story depth are every good. If you have read and love the Witcher novels then this would be a must play game. I have NOT read the books so I'm coming at this from a ... | video-games_xbox |
I personally am glad it is different. I have played about 5-6 hours of MP so far, but I did stay up all night and beat the campaign, and thus am writing a release-day review for those on the fence!
First off, this game is not just a rehash of BF4. All of the BF games have large amounts of similarities, as does this. B... | video-games_xbox |
Disappointed at first, but now I love it. If you are one who just likes to play the campaign and call it a day, this game would be considered good. I thought the campaign was great but that isn't what I play COD for, it is 99% Multiplayer which is not so good.. I love the COD series and ignored the poor reviews for t... | video-games_xbox |
Whoa... I'm irradiated. Fallout 3 is absolutely, undeniably, the best first-person RPG I've played to date. I'll try and break down some reasons why in the following review. For starters, I'm a game freak: tabletop miniatures, pen-and-paper RPGs, computer games, and console games... I try to give every type of game a... | video-games_xbox |
Fumbling but still fun. I desperately wanted to love RUSE and for the first two hours I did. You begin the game as an (initially) interesting US Army Major of the 1st Armored Division in the infamous Kasserine Pass. At your command are historical units engaged in deliberately paced and tactically based action all pres... | video-games_xbox |
Ruined. I want to focus on the single player campaign. I actively debated buying Halo 4, or renting it at a Redbox. I'm aversive to renting things, figuring that if it's great, I'll end up buying it and spend more money in the long run. That being said, I was a little short on cash, so I rented Halo 4. The dollar or tw... | video-games_xbox |
Grand Theft Auto IV Thje Lost and Damned,. worst add on ever. what the heck is this? wasting time download it? there is a time limit for download. Hard drive data and hard drive dose fale. it can be only donloaded once. then there is a mater or all kinds or product activation and accounts to open up. hell of a lot of f... | video-games_xbox |
One of the best games of this generation. Ken Levine and the staff at Irrational Games has produced one of the best games of this generation. The first Bioshock game set a pretty high standard and the hype for this game was pretty large, but they've made game that not only lived up to that hype, but surpassed it. The... | video-games_xbox |
Titanfall 2 does not capture the spirit of Titanfall. The reason why I'm giving this game two stars is because I am comparing it to Titanfall on XBOX One. If you anticipate a similar gaming experience as the original then you are likely to be disappointed. My primary concerns follows: 1)) This version arguably butc... | video-games_xbox |
Great, but you must Mod. The SE version of the stick is extremely easy to modify and once modded feels like a real SF Arcade Stick. I didn't want a huge TE stick to lug around. So this was the cheapest alternative I could find. The only real negative I have is that every once in a while, twice a month, the stick will... | video-games_xbox |
Great sound but other problems ruined it. To start I am writing this as a PC user, I hooked it up to my 360 just to see how it worked but I only used it for 10 minutes.
Headset 1:
Got this headset in December and was very pleased because of the sound quality. However about 3 days after opening my friends began to com... | video-games_xbox |
Not the best ever, but the best for your 360. Though this game didn't quite meet my expectations, I will admit that I set the bar pretty high. Knowing how much work was put into this game, I was expecting something amazing. Though this game is a lot of fun, I was kind of hoping for more.
The game feels somewhat like... | video-games_xbox |
This game NEVER gets old. I'm lost for words for 1 of the best FPS.
Before you start any level there're 4 difficulty levels, easy, normal, heroic and legendary. The description box at the side of Heroic says something like "survival isn't garaunteed, well that's if you first start on that mode on your first ever go on... | video-games_xbox |
Nice motivational tool, decent teaching tool. Could use some tweaking. I've been an on/off guitar player for at least 15 years now. Never really good, but steadily improving. My hardest thing is consistent motivation. I go through spurts where I study theory and practice like crazy and then, suddenly I just stop. ... | video-games_xbox |
More a Response than a Review. So i've never actually written a user-review before, but the amazon reviews routinely play a large role in my purchasing decisions, and i felt that Lips was in need of some defending from the reviews thus far... I got into the music game scene via Rock Band, and quickly found the singing... | video-games_xbox |
A Fun Epic Sci Fi Shooter ,Flawed But Fun. Advent Rising is a third & first person shooter that is a fast pace Sci-Fi Epic like gaming experience that is best desribed as a star wars/halo2 mix. But Advent Rising is still a unique game in its own right. You play in 1st & 3rd person which can be changed while playing. Th... | video-games_xbox |
Medal of Honor: Frontline (Xbox) Review. Electronic Arts' Medal of Honor series was one of the best first-person shooters ever developed for the Sony Playstation. Two World War II-themed shooters, created in conjunction with director Steven Spielberg and Dreamworks Interactive, made EA take notice of the fact that it h... | video-games_xbox |
Great but could be better. Fable I was one of those over self hyped projects that came along that when it failed to deliver everything (or indeed even half of what was promised) everyone kinda scratched their heads, and whined. Fable I was a great game don't get me wrong. But I kinda get that same vibe from Fable II as... | video-games_xbox |
Can We Try Something, Well New. Ah yes the most anticipated game for quite some time, the legendary Halo 3.
Halo 3 continues the tales of Master Chief after the anti climactic ending in Halo 2. The game takes a leap into the next generation of gaming consoles (Xbox 360 title only).
With such a large leap we've seen m... | video-games_xbox |
Very Good on the Verge of Great. I had the Division pre-ordered for months. It was the game to which I was looking forward the most. The idea of a third-person shooter in a pandemic-stricken New York was very appealing to me. After a week of playing it every night, I have developed some opinions of it that are both ... | video-games_xbox |
The Ultimate Racing/Driving Experience...Hands Down. As a longtime Playstation owner and fan, I had never really experienced the Xbox-exclusive Forza Motorsport series. But after owning Gran Turismo 5 for the Playstation 3, playing it, and trading it in soon after, and then owning Gran Turismo 5 XL Edition, playing it ... | video-games_xbox |
Fine for a rainy day. As a long-time fan of Westerns and good shootin' games, for years I was stuck (tho' the more accurate term would be "blessed") with the PC classic OUTLAWS, from back in the day when the LucasArts logo meant consistent excellence (then, apparently, everything "Lucas" suffered karmic payback for his... | video-games_xbox |
great game if you like BS plays and inconsistency. I really tried to like this game, being that EA chickened out and bought their way out of competition.
The graphics and sound are great in this game, but its ruined by EA's cheating AI. I have never seen a game cheat this much in my life. No matter what play you call ... | video-games_xbox |

Great piece of hardware for those who wanted to travel. At first, i heard about it in one of a website news, i always wondered how good can a-screen-in-a-box would be when compared with real wide screen HD TV. i was pessimistic at first, specially about its picture quality and sound quality. And since I'll be continui... | video-games_xbox |
Bargain game garners a rental for most. Bargain games sometimes change the criticism of a game in my experiences. A game at [...] bucks can invoke ire and disappointment but the same game at [...] bucks may be good value. Afro Samurai is hitting those bargain prices but honstly I still don't think it garners more tha... | video-games_xbox |
Great features but one big negative. So Razer seems to have fixed many of the complaints about the Onza TE with this new controller. The main problem with the Onza was that it had a flimsy and cheap construction. Not this controller. It seems to be made of very high quality components.
So this all sounds great right? ... | video-games_xbox |
V For Venetica. Although an older title, I found this to be very enjoyable and challenging at the same time. I am a casual gamer, I like to play and have several RPGs that are more sophisticated (Mass Effect, etc.), but this is just a pleasure to play. If you're an experienced Gamer you will find plenty of challenge ... | video-games_xbox |
Excellent remake of one of the best N64 games ever made. Back in Feb, 2000(I think that was the release date because I got the original when it first came out)the very last Nintendo 64 game was released and it was called Conkers Bad Fur Day and boy did it make its appearance alright. It was not only the last n64 game ... | video-games_xbox |
Don't waste your money, and more importantly your time. Terrible headphones, TERRIBLE customer service. I'm going to review both the headphones and Polk Audio customer service in one go.

XBOX Live will rock your world. Like the other guys here I'm also a betatester for XBox Live since early September.

Now with the Live service I've found a brand... | video-games_xbox |
The Best PC Controller, Hands Down // BUT SLOWS STARTUP. UPDATE 2/6/2011
I've been using the controller for a few hundred hours now and it still works fine. I've dropped it a few times, tossed it around in my backpack, and even stepped on it -- it still works perfectly! The main con still exists. My motherboard hangs o... | video-games_xbox |
A perfect game. I have been away from video games for over 10 years and I have just recently been getting back into them and getting a feel for what is currently out there. The aesthetics of Ori and the Blind Forest are what originally drew me in. I was not super excited about platformers when I picked up this game but... | video-games_xbox |
Killing is fun again. I decided to purchase Dark Messiah not just after seeing the video preview on Amazon, but after watching a PC walkthrough of the game posted on youtube. The game footage looked awesome, and challenging. The person who was playing switched from a sword, to daggers, to a bow. It looked like so much ... | video-games_xbox |
Quality over quantity. I held off buying this game because, unfortunately, I let reviewers scare me into thinking it wasn't long enough or didn't short changed the player somehow. So when the price dropped, I said what the hell and got it. I'm glad I did. I was shocked to see how wrong the reviewers got it. In this mod... | video-games_xbox |

Great game but comes with flaws. If you have watched trailer for this game, we can all agree this game looks awesome. Since I like open world games, I decided to give this one a shot. After finishing the game on normal difficulty and finishing about 90% of the total missions (~20-25 hrs) below is what I thought about t... | video-games_xbox |
save your money. I'm a proud owner of a 360. I raved to everyone about that machine. It was fantastic. It did everything a gaming machine should and bunch of apps were available that continued to add value to the thing. The XBox One is nothing like that. It's difficult to navigate through menus at least at first. ... | video-games_xbox |

Gameplay: Fun Factor, Finally. Every game is competitive and close, but of course certain teams you open up on(dominate) later on in the game or vice versa. Passing was fin... | video-games_xbox |
If you loved DRAGON AGE, you'll probably hate DARK SOULS. I'm a fan of podcasts, and on one recent-ish Joystiq podcast Griffin McElroy said this was his game of the year. I'm a big fan of the McElroy brothers (MBMBAM!), but it's safe to say that I don't have Griffin's taste in video games.
One other reviewer here, who... | video-games_xbox |
Any Halo fan will enjoy this game. I was a bit too young for the first go-around of this game, so I was very happy to hear that there was a re-mastered version of it. I mainly bought this game because of the story, I had played Halo 2-4, Halo Wars, and ODST (my personal favorite) multiple times. I love the Halo 3 and 4... | video-games_xbox |

Perfect for using PC Keyboard/Mouse with Xbox. What a fantastic device! I wanted to use my PC keyboard and trackball to play games with my son on his Xbox 360. The CronusMax did exactly that and then some. Their X-Aim program allows you to adjust your mouse input for any game. This is VITAL because every xbox game tran... | video-games_xbox |
Great game but. First off I am going to say I have always been a GT5 Fan. Secondly this game is right up there with it. I only have a couple of complaints with this game that makes me still think GT5 is a better simulation racing game.
I am going to start with my complaints.
1. You receive way to much credits for ... | video-games_xbox |
Best Racing Game out there, PERIOD. First off, let me say that I've been a Grand Turismo fan since the beginning on Playstation. I bought GT5 and the DFGT wheel when they first came out and they are collecting dust now. After playing Forza 4 over a relatives house, I went out and purchased a Xbox 360, my own copy of Fo... | video-games_xbox |
