Comic Con ’11: Spider-Man: Edge of Time Hands-On

July 26th, 2011 by Alex Quevedo

Activision’s upcoming Spider-Man: Edge of Time feels like it’s going to be a lot more of what we saw in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions. While not a true sequel, it’s pulling ideas from the game by focusing on The Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099. Use Facebook to Comment on this Post

Review: LA Noire (Xbox 360, PS3)

May 27th, 2011 by Alex Quevedo

Just a year removed from the successful Red Dead Redemption, Rockstar Games (along with Australian developer Team Bondi) is back with a 1940s police drama in LA Noire. Considering it’s based during a time where Hollywood was deep in the studio-era, there’s no wonder as to why this is one the grandest Rockstar games to [...]

Review: Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime (Xbox 360, PS3)

March 29th, 2011 by Alex Quevedo

After releasing Ghostbusters: The Video Game in June 2009, Atari is back with the follow-up effort Ghostbusters: Sanctum of Slime on the XBLA and PSN. An arcade “shooter”, it offers an original story. However, with no Ghostbusters movie release or anniversary to provide a reason for this game’s release, does it have enough to stand [...]

Review: Halo: Reach (Xbox 360)

September 18th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

Well this is the way it finally ends. No, not the way it did with Halo 3. Not with any sense of uncertainty. Not with a chance of a spin-off focusing on a side group of soldiers. No, it ends with a cracked helmet dug halfway into the sand with a beautifully war-torn landscape adorning [...]

Comic Con 2010: Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions

July 27th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

Despite Comic Con being somewhat limited on game preview selection, we were able to get through a demo of the upcoming Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions on the showroom floor. Spidey games typically are hit or miss types of games: the movie tie-ins have been misses, but independent titles have garnered a bit more success. But the [...]

Comic Con 2010: Gears of War 3

July 27th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

In the Gears of War series, The Locust have always seemed like such a bully. Sure, they’re trying to completely eviscerate any traces of human life, and they pop up from the ground and swallow cities, but have we really taken the time to get to know what they are really like? No, and because [...]

E3 2010 Showfloor Preview: Madden 11

June 19th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

One liner: A much more time-effective and inviting Madden. With basketball wrapping up, that leaves a little more time to focus on good old American football. And the Madden series is seemingly becoming more and more of an American tradition. But some traditions have to adapt to the times. Gameflow is the latest feature that [...]

E3 2010 Showfloor Preview: Rock Band 3

June 17th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

One liner: Keyboard + plus a six-string = you may be able to play for real now! By now, after a few years and 250 versions of Guitar Hero, we’ve become somewhat numb to the music game genre. We’ve strummed the fret enough. We’ve smashed the drum pad millions of times. We’ve even strained our [...]

E3 2010 Showfloor Preview: Halo Reach

June 17th, 2010 by Alex Quevedo

One liner: Singing that familiar song, but space battles might be a scratch on the record. While we’ve already been treated to a taste of Halo Reach, Microsoft showed off some more details behind closed doors at E3. A demo showed off some of the new features that weren’t included in the beta, a new [...]
