With the release of Mass Effect 3 last month, I decided to sit down and play through all three games. I'd heard a lot of good things about the series, and there was a sale on Steam for the first two. This will be the first of a three part review of the Mass Effect franchise. So I powered up Steam,...

Many of you have probably heard of the game Magicka, developed by a small group of Swedish students under the name Arrowhead Game Studios that released back in January. The game revolves around a Wizard or group of Wizards, if you're playing multiplayer, who can summon and mix elements and cast them...

It is extremely easy to compare this title to any other generic shooter and that is because it is. While having destruction is a huge plus the game fails on fun. The game has plenty of features even for a small studio like Atomic Games but it is unpolished and could have used a bit more time...

Ferelden is a place you’ll enjoy spending time in… and spend time you will. A full playthrough of Dragon Age may take longer than 100 hours, assuming you’ll want to complete its many sidequests and explore every inch of Ferelden yourself. And while not every moment of Dragon Age is golden, the experience is one you’ll want to relive again and again.

The new year is starting off with several heavy hitting new IPs, such as Bayonetta and Darksiders. Capcom and Airtight Games decided to throw their new third person action game, Dark Void, into the mix. With Dark Void, a game that gives gamers a chance to fight in land, air and hanging from several ledges, Capcom hopes that they start of the busy year of 2010 with a hit.

Platinum Games has created their own recipe for action games with publishing help from Sega. Take a cup of Devil May Cry, a pinch of God of War, and a dash of Ninja Gaiden. Sprinkle on some J-pop and jazz and you have the recipe for Bayonetta. Does Hideki Kamiya’s latest action game live up to his previous games?

If there is one thing that you will learn from me, it is that I am a sucker for music games. For instance, I freaking hate Green Day, but the announcement of Rock Band: Green Day made me want to play the game. So it was a good bet to say that I would pick up DJ Hero from Activision...

I know that you must be wondering, “who would win in a fight: Cloud of Final Fantasy VII or Tidus of Final Fantasy X?” If you weren’t before, you probably are now. Finally, there is an answer to the fanboy question. Actually that’s a lie, but you can make your own answer in Square Enix’s interesting fighter: Dissidia: Final Fantasy.

In a way, The Saboteur is the perfect swan song for the studio, as the game is very representative of Pandemic’s games as a whole. The game may not be the best looking, nor is it the most polished in any sense… but a lot of people will have a blast playing it (as I did), and the game is worth the price of purchase.
