Trauma Center: Second Opinion Game for Nintendo Wii
Trauma Center: Second Opinion is the sequel of the Trauma Center: The First Blood. I haven’t got the chance to play the first game but it doesn’t really matter since there’s actually no connection between the story in the first game and in the second game.
In this game, …

The Chronicles of Spellborn MMORPG
The Chronicles of Spellborn is a brand new, fresh released MMORPG by SIL (Europe) and Acclaim (North America). I really enjoy playing this game, but it took a while for me to find a passion in it. Unlike most other MMORPGs, TCoS requires players to actually have some skill. …

Playstation 2
I bought my ps2 around 3 years ago, and I have to say that this is a revolutionary game system. It has lasted for a long time, and a lot of new ps2 games still come out. Unlike the nintendo gamecube, the ps2 actually lasted. I don’t really see …

Executive Mini Foosball Table
At first glance, I thought the Executive Foosball Table was way too small to have much of a competition. With only three rows of guys on each side and a very small table, it seemed that it would make for a very boring game. After learning to …
Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
Who didn’t love Superstar Saga? It was funny, it satirized the RPG genre, and still managed to deliver a deep and innovative battle system that was easy to understand, but took a bit of time to master. So, of course there was going to be a sequel. However, Nintendo …
Battlefield Bad Company 2
Bad Company 2 is without THE best modern war shooter on the market right now, bar NONE! While the single player lacks the oomph of a Call of Duty campaign, the true experience lies within its multiplayer. Using Dice’s Frostbite 2.0 engine, players will experience all out war in …

L.A. Noire, PS3
Never has a game seen this much positive feedback from mainstream media. Usually video games get crucified for violence even before they’ve seen a full week on retailers’ shelves. Either something was in the water during the games launch or all media’s around the globe have finally seen the …
Chicken Shoot (Nintendo Wii)
Chicken Shoot (Nintendo Wii) reminds me very much of Duck Hunt for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Duck Hunt came out way back in the mid 1980s and here it is, the late 2000s, and this game barely does anything to expand on the concept of “shoot the duck” or …

Gears of War 2

Need For Speed: ProStreet PS2 game

Sonic Heroes
This was the game that started the downfall. In my mind, Sonic Adventure 2 was the best of the three D Sonic games and was the high point of them. True, it had its share of flaws, but it was a very satisfying game… and that sort of satisfaction …
Virtual Boy
The Virtual Boy was a really interesting video game platform. It was gaming’s first real foray into three dimensions. Even though we tend to credit this leap to the 64-bit era of video games, the truth is the Virtual Boy was the original pioneer. Admittedly, it wasn’t a very …
Game of Life
We recently bought the Game of Life. It was one of those impulses you have, “Oh, I loved that when I was a kid!” and so you buy it. Usually the “Oh, I loved that when I was a kid!” should be your clue, but it isn’t for me, …

Soulcalibur 4 PS3
I’ve had friends and even my husband ask me why I even bother playing games like Soulcalibur. They’re just like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. That is very true. They all follow the same basic guidelines. They’re fighting games. That’s all there is to it. Most of these games …

The next great game from SquareEnix, and just what we�d expect from them. Final Fantasy XII delivers a deep story with complex characters, great graphics, fantastic music, and great CG movies. It even sports a few rather large differences from the rest of the Final Fantasy series, …

Mario is Missing for SNES
