Spider-Man: Edge of Time for the Xbox 360

Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions
After Spider-Man 2, there was no Spidey game to quench our love for the wall-crawler. Until now. Shattered Dimensions takes 4 different Spideys from 4 different universes to meet a common goal: to stop Mysterio. It also doesn’t hurt that Stan Lee narrates the whole game either. …

Being a very social person I enjoy exercising with my friends. In the summer we walk …
Call of Duty 4
Now whenever I hear the words Call of Duty in the same sentence I always remember world war II, the reason is more than obvious. However, this time Infinity Ward decided to mix things up a bit.

Halo: Reach game
It’s unfortunate that Bungie Studios isn’t releasing another installment to the Halo series… Or is it? The latest installment in the Halo series, Reach, is a blast from the past for all of the misinformed souls who don’t fully understand the complexity and depth of the Halo universe.

I’m not too much of a Final Fantasy fan. Sure, I’m okay with the games, but I’m not really a fan of the series. However, I HATE this game. HATE. IT. There is nothing I like about this game in any way, shape, of form. The controls, the music, …
State Of Emergency game
