Prince of Persia is one of my favorite game franchises, I really dug the last two games in the series. The footage Ubi-Soft released this week makes me giddy with excitement for the latest installment. The graphics look amazing and the gameplay looks interesting. The one thing that I have concerns about is why did […]

VIDEO GAME TRAILER: Tomb Raider: Underworld
I’m not sure how I feel about the Tomb Raider series. I love the concept of the entire series, the lead character is empowering, and generally speaking I like this genre of game. Every time a new one comes out, I’m all excited only to get disappointed in the first level. Frankly I’ve always found […]
GAME NEWS: New Lara Croft Model Debuts
Ah, Tomb Raider. A game that for some reason I could never quite get into. Every year I look forward to the new installment and always end up being disappointed. Maybe it’s because I’m just not a fan of puzzles in my games. I like straightforward go from point A to point B. Not hitting […]
GAME PREVIEW: James Bond and the Quantum of Solace
Have I said how much I despise the title of the new James Bond movie? With that said Activision’s new James Bond game is looking pretty tasty. The official game website is an example of why Flash sucks. It’s slow and busy as heck. Absolutely hate it, but it does have all the community bells […]
ROCKBAND NEWS: The Who Hits This Week and Jam at E3
I’ve always been more a fan of Guitar Hero than Rockband, even though I recently purchased about 40 tracks. I just find I prefer the balance on GH to RB. RB’s normal level is way too slow and easy, while the hard level is way too hard – I can’t hit that stupid orange note. […]

NEWS: Netflix comes to Xbox Live
I have not tried Netflix’s new video streaming service because I don’t have the new $99 Netflix box and I’m not a fan of watching video on my laptop – even though I do have a 24 inch monitor to connect it too. My problems are solved, this fall you’ll be able to stream Netflix […]

GAME REVIEW: Battlefield Bad Company
I always like to say that I’m not much of a fan of shooters, but that really isn’t true. I do find that I’m more likely to get addicted to a good shooter than any other genre of game. Maybe it’s the nature of it’s straightforward, quick, get in and get out game play. I […]
