James Cameron’s Avatar: The Game

Club Pogo Battle Phlinx
Wow, all I can say about Club Pogo’s game Battle Phlinx, is that it HAS to be the game I love to hate! While it has a simple enough premise…shoot down balls & get points…the other tweak to this game is that you have three wily opponents who …
Showtime Championship Boxing

I was wrong.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl Video Game for Nintendo Wii
I have played Super Smash Bros. Brawl since the day it came out, and I continue to play to this day. The graphics rank in the top 50% of the Wii’s released titles, and the fun factor is pretty much out of this world. The single player campaign, “Subspace …

Patapon is a 2D platformer released by Sony Entertainment back in February 2008. It is a Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) exclusive. I first played this game during my 7 months in the United Kingdom and the game instantly became a big hit for me.
The first impression of the …
Dare Devil Dennis videogame
A lot of computer (and console, come to that) games these days are rather formulaic and predictable, I find. You are usually cast in the role of some sort of solider, either one of fortune or one who is part of an army, and your task is to make …
Majesty 2 game
Fabulous game, with amazing graphics and fun animations. Having played the prequel, I am nowhere near disappointed with Majesty 2. I absolutely love it!
Majesty 2 keeps its unique game-play from its prequel, Majesty, where your heroes are able to explore and fight at free will. I find this …
Armoured Core 4 for Xbox 360
Armored Core is mech combat game set in the near future. The plot is somewhat clichéd and generic but while not particularly note worthy it does it’s job as vehicle to the action and the voice acting is very competent.
The story is a little lacking and could have …

Saitek Cyborg evo Computer Joystick

Battlefield Bad Company 2 for Xbox 360
First off, I might be a little biased as I’ve always been a fan of the Battlefield series of games. Starting off with battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, moving on to Battlefield 2 (including the numerous add-ons) and finally, playing both the original Bad Company and 1943 on the …
Harvest Moon: Back to nature
Harvest moon: Back to nature is one of those games that you think will be boring to play if you’re not a 10-year old girl. On the contrary, it’s really entertaining, and most of all funny.
The story begins with a young man arriving to an old farm that looks …
Fable 2 role playing game
Fable 2, one heck of an role playing game. I never played the first fable but it is said it was good but short. Well looks like its a Lionhead studio problem. However, Fable 2 is one great game. Why well:

Crime City Game ( Facebook Application )

Madden 12 for PlayStation3
Madden is one of those games where you know what you’re getting before you buy it. I have to say, however, even with lower expectations in mind, this game disappointed me.
The first disappointment was that the game hasn’t added anything, and has in fact lost features every year since …
Pokemon Diamond
Pokemon Diamond version is, quite simply, the most comprehensive Pokemon game out there. It both expands and expounds upon the concepts introduced in the earlier versions, creating a wholly new world of Sinnoh in which to explore, and, well, naturally, catch Pokemon. Even with all the advancements, however, it …

Civet’s Odyssey adventure game
This is a somewhat long adventure game about a raccoon out to help his friends. It’s drawn in a bright cartoon style and has many puzzles for you to figure out. While it looks simple, I admit it took me awhile to figure some of the puzzles out! I’m …
Game : Pariah (PC)
Hmmm… Yet another game in my long history of playing them that I feel could have been so much more than what the end result was. Pariah really is a middle of the road game, and while the ten or eleven hours it takes to play through it are …
Pinball - Flashgame
For anyone interested in playing this game, dont waste your time. Actually go ahead and play if you dont believe me. This pinball game is one of the worst I have ever seen. Where do I begin? Right away I noticed I didnt know the controls, so I went …

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game by Paizo Publishing
I have to admit that the newest revision of the venerable Dungeons & Dragons Role Playing Game, the long-awaited 4th Edition which marked the leap from the 3.5 Edition was to me a travesty committed against the original and oldest (nearly 40 years) of role playing games. Due …
Wordscape
This is one of my favorite games to play online. I could play it for hours and hours. It’s not hard to play but not to easy either. You can play it on www.iwin.com and on the site they use playbucks, but it doesn’t cost anything. you play the …
