Paranoid Emdroid
I got a message on BlogCatalog from a fellow blogger, Paranoid Emdroid. Her blog is about games, from a girl’s perspective. It’s pretty good, and a great perspective, so I wanted to write a short post about it tadalafil generique. Go, check out her blog. I added a link to it on the left.

iMac Woes
I love my 24-inch iMac (2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 duo), but it sure hates me. When I bought it in December of 2007, it was because I wanted a new gaming machine (I have Windows Vista installed on it, too, which is maybe why it hates me). And for the most part, it has […]

Repo! The Genetic Opera
Repo! The Genetic Opera is truly the definition of ridiculous. Anthony Stewart Head (from Buffy), Alexa Vega (Spy Kids), Sarah Brightman (Phantom of the Opera), Paul Sorvino (Mira’s father) and Paris Hilton (tabloids) star in this futuristic musical where repo men take back replacement organs from people who can’t pay. I’m not sure how better […]

Put the Force Back on its Leash
Finished Star Wars: the Force Unleashed on Friday. I guess I thought it was going somewhere bigger than this. Let me start with the non-spoiler comments, and then I’ll get into the details behind spoiler tags. I need to return for a second to the complaint I had about cutscenes last time. Worse than just […]

Loading Unleashed
Post 2 on Star Wars: the Force Unleashed. I want to emphasize my earlier post in saying that this game is much better than its demo. In general, I’m going to continue to praise it, but with three notable gripes: 1. Loading screens are too often. They’re not too long, at least the first twenty […]

The Force Unleashed, Better Than Expected
When I played the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed demo, back when it was released for free, I was completely unimpressed. Now that I’ve rented the full game and played through the first couple of missions, I think the problem is that they wrote a bad demo. See, games like this need time to get […]

The Maw in Review
I know I just reviewed The Maw last week. Now I’ve played the whole game and gotten most of the achievements, and thought it was time to give a final weigh-in. Let’s not wince words: this game is amazing.

Sims 3 Delayed Until June
The highly-anticipated sequel The Sims 3 (website) has been delayed. As recently as yesterday, they were announcing a February 20 release date. Now it’s June 2. And a look at their press release reveals the reason: They want more time to market it. I’m thinking they didn’t get as many pre-orders as they anticipated. It’s […]

Bad Controls Ruin Too Human
Too Human (website), the new action/adventure/rpg from Silicon Knights, is a visually stunning game. Too bad that doesn’t count for anything with actual humans. I mean, no matter how shiny a game is (Prince of Persia), it still needs other things. What’s Too Human missing? How about controls. Let me make one thing clear: the […]

First Impressions of The Maw
The Maw (website) is an unusually impressive new 3D game on the Xbox Live Arcade. It has all the feel of a late-1990s big studio 3D platforming game (Banjo-Kazooie, Spyro), and graphics that are well beyond its price at $10. The Maw also delivers a shocking amount of fun for so simple a game. In […]
