October 4, 2012

Ghost Recon/NiGHTS into Dreams/Sonic Adventure 2/Xbox 360/xbox live update

A pair of Sega classics hits XBLA this week as the Blue Blur returns, and a flying purple jester makes his Live debut. Seriously, what’s the guy (or whatever) in NIGHTS into Dreams supposed to be anyway? I honestly didn’t have enough patience to stick with the game long enough…

Microsoft/Microsoft Xbox 360/Multiplayer/party game/Reviews/Strategy/turn based/Worms/Worms Revolution/Xbox 360

I look at the dictionary definition of ‘revolution,’ and I have to question its application to the newest Worms game. There is nothing revolutionary about Worms Revolution, but then again that’s not really a bad thing. In fact, those times that Team 17 have really tried to mix up the…

Remember that Valve announced it would be selling computer software through its popular digital distribution service Steam way back in August of 2012? No, neither did I. While that partly has to do with the fact that Valve missed its delivery date by almost a month (September 5th was the…
