State of Decay Review
Platform: Xbox 360 Every once and a while, a game goes completely under the radar before it finds itself on either physical or digital shelves. State of Decay fell into that category when I turned on my 360 a couple of weeks ago to see what was new. After playing the demo, I was convinced […]
Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Review
Platforms: PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360 (reviewed) Blood Dragon is quite the sales pitch for Far Cry 3. While the first two Far Cry games didn’t do much that I felt like latching onto them, I never even gave the third entry a try. After putting in six or eight hours into Blood Dragon, I […]
Dragon Fantasy: Book One Review
Platforms: PC, Mac, iOS, Android, Playstation 3 (reviewed) and Playstation Vita (reviewed) If you tend to avoid iOS games, there’s a good chance you had never heard of Dragon Fantasy prior to it coming to PSN. Dragon Fantasy is a tribute, right down to its namesake, to older Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy (see what […]
ROWYCO – Wild Arms: Alter Code F
Consider this a cop-out if you will, but this edition of Rock Out With Your Cart Out is focusing on one game: Wild Arms Alter Code F. Second part of the series and I’m already using a shortcut you say? Hit a few of the songs below and you’ll see why I felt this game, […]
Nun Attack Review
Platforms: iPhone, Android, PlayStation Vita (reviewed) Where do I even begin with Nun Attack? I guess first and foremost I should mention the story. The game is set in a world where prayers are no longer answered and evil is running rampant. Apparently the only solution to this problem is for a group of nuns […]
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate Review
Platform: 3DS [Let’s get this out of the way before I start; I’m just going to refer to this game as Mirror. If I was writing a term paper that had a word count to meet, one would be hard pressed to find something to write about that had such an easy shortcut built in. […]
Tomb Raider Review
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 (reviewed), Xbox One Note: This review only includes thoughts on the single player experience. Tomb Raider is a franchise that I’ve never been particularly fond of. I’ve played a few games in the series and they weren’t bad, but the tongue-in-cheek nature of […]
Germinator Review
Platforms: PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita (reviewed) Germinator is a “bubble puzzle” game that has you going room to room in your suburban house to rid it of the pesky germs that have taken over. Your goal is to clear each level of static black germs before they reach the top of the screen by using […]
Rock Out With Your Cart Out
I’ve been a fan of video game soundtracks since I first heard Koji Kondo’s handling of the original The Legend of Zelda. Hearing the music from that game, like so many other people my age, takes me back to a simpler time in my life and reminds me of the passion that I had, and […]
