It's a Party...on the go!
Party Planet continues a long tradition of party type games releasing for consoles early in their lifespan. Developers see this as a quick way to get a game into the hands of consumers as they are clamoring for new games so releasing a package of mini-games hopes to grab the non-hardcore gamer and sell some copies. So how does Party Planet ... Read More

I had high hopes for Chess Ultra on the Switch, I enjoyed Pure Chess on the PS4 so having chess on the go was a big plus. Unfortunately, I was almost immediately let down with this title. I didn't care for the menu system at all, over to the right was a non-descript "Chess Ultra" tab which just goes to a currently non-existent DLC page. Playing a game was okay, ... Read More

It's been awhile since I got into a good pool game, always loved to play a video game version of pool, but seems so many are just not that good. Bankshot Billiards for the Xbox 360 was really the last one I dove into and played a lot, it released in 2005. So upon hearing VooFoo Studios was bringing out Pure Pool I got pretty excited to see what they had in store.
First off, the game looks incredible, it's not like a lot has to go into ... Read More

Han Shot First
Zen Studios has become the new master of pinball games, creating a fantasy world in their pinball games but retaining the true to the feel of pinball machine in your home. It’s a difficult task to have the property feel authentic all the while also feel like a pinball machine. This has impressed me over and over again with each subsequent Zen Pinball release. ...

I can't be the only one sick of seeing what unfolded above from Fox News right? Every time there's a shooting in this country, video games are almost always the first to be blamed. Even way back when Columbine happened, the media blamed Marilyn Manson and Doom. Now they want to say video games caused him to be a monster? Really!? And this Elizabeth Hasselbeck wants ...

Maybe I'm just expecting too much from gaming anymore, or Madden 25 is just that disappointing of a game, but I came away very unsatisfied. Within playing one half of football I saw many issues that I was shocked made it through QA testing and into consumer's hands. Then there are things that are head scratchers, small details that NCAA gets right, but Madden doesn't. The fact that both games

My local Children's Miracle Network Hospital treats thousands of children each year, regardless of their family's ability to pay. These kids are facing scary stuff like cancer, cystic fibrosis, and injuries from accidents to name just a few

On May 22nd and 23rd, I'll be flying to 2K Sports to see an early build of WWE 2K14. I'll have an opportunity to try out many of the modes, ask questions and get a general feel of what we should be expecting as the WWE series moves on to 2K Sports from THQ.
This is where you come in, I'll be there early enough where your voice could actually be heard by the WWE Games team, and questions/concerns/ideas/suggestions

If there's one thing I love to relax and play, it's pinball. I've never been the best at pinball, but I've loved to play it since I first stepped foot into an arcade. I've always got the new pinball game for every generation of console over the years starting back with Pinball for the Atari 2600. Until Pinball FX2 hit for the Xbox Live Arcade, no one went in with an approach of having a core game and adding new ... Read More
