Transformers War for Cybertron Impressions
Transformers War for Cybertron is now in stores and there is no movie in sight. That was the first indicator to me that this game might be worth checking into. Also Reviews for this particular Transformers game has been pretty good so I had to give it a shot. The art style in the game is very good. The characters all appear to be inspired by the Generation 1 cartoon designs which will please many ...[Read More]
NBA 2K11 Cover
The 2K11 cover has revealed featuring NBA Legend Michael Jordan. In my opinion the cover should be given to active players. They are many players to choose from that are worthy of the honor of being on the cover. Would rather see Lebron James, Dwayne Wade or Chris Bosh just to name a few.

E3 10: Castlevania Harmony of Despair
Castlevania Harmony of Despair is a “Metroidvania” type of game. A large castle to explore, platforming and 2D action. It looks like they took a Nintendo DS Castlevania game like Portrait of Ruin and ported it in widescreen to the Xbox 360. Fans of those games will have much to enjoy here. The art syle is pixelated but comes across as more charming than jaggy. There is a lot to like in...[Read More]
E3 2010: Limbo Impressions
I did not get much time with Limbo but what I did see and play was pretty interesting. Limbo is a puzzle platformer that will be released as a part of the “Summer of arcade” that requires the player to hit levers and objects to affect the environment creating a path that you can traverse to proceed to the end. The dark noir style is nice and I do look forward to playing this when it is...[Read More]
E3 10: Splatterhouse Impressions
Splatterhouse is a 3D blood heavy hack and slash beat’em up game. There was nothing about it that screamed out to me to really care or add it to my list of games to watch. Most likely a rental at best. Dude at the booth would not let me record video of the game in action because he said he was worried that people would see the footage and think the game looked bad. This was the only time I w...[Read More]
E3 10: Medal of Honor Impressions
After playing Medal of Honor I can safely say it is on my day one buy list. The game is by Dice who also developed Battlefield Bad Company 2 and it shows. The shooting and movement is very akin to Battlefield Bad Company 2 but Medal of Honor seems to be a bit faster. So for the most part Medal of Honor came across to me as a game sitting somewhere in between Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield Bad Co...[Read More]
E3 10: Kane & Lynch 2 Dog Days Impressions
Kane & Lynch 2 Dog Days does a lot of things well visually. When you take damage the visuals shift into a mode that looks like your looking at the game through a security cam recording or handicam. Its a very interesting and unique style choice. The characters also have a very nice art style though the combat is where the game fell apart for me. The guns I used had too much recoil. I dont min...[Read More]
E3 10: Spec Ops Impressions
I got a chance to see a demo run of Spec Ops. It’s a game by 2k games that is a third person shooter. The over the shoulder perspective is reminiscent of Gears of War and Resident Evil 5. The game takes place in Dubai after a huge sandstorm has wiped out most of the city. Most of the action takes place in and out of huge opulent buildings. The game initially at least revolves around a missio...[Read More]
Dead Rising 2 @ E3 With Caged Zombie
Yes, Capcom has a poor soul in a cage at the Dead Rising 2 demo area. Funny.
