Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness - Episode 3 (Xbox 360)

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness - Episode 3 review (X360)

Reviewed on October 18, 2012

To keep battles from being stale, a decent number of them have special stipulations which can work in your favor, the monsters' favor or in an unexpected way — such as when you fight the alien leader in an outer space dimension and find that, in homage to the Alien movies, you've entered "Ripley mode" where the one female member of your party has her stats raised dramatically.

Retro City Rampage review (VITA)

Hey guys, remember Saved by the Bell? Isn't it hilarious that Saved by the Bell was a thing?

Borderlands 2 (Xbox 360)

Borderlands 2 review (X360)

Reviewed on October 15, 2012

There are an insane number of guns in the game, and they grant some nice boosts to the damage you inflict. Your character can’t equip weapons that are too powerful, though, so there’s always motivation to level grind together with friends, and to set up impromptu weapon swaps when you’re meeting up after playing in separate parties with other chums. Almost as if by accident, Borderlands 2 becomes a very social game.

Dr. Chaos (NES)

Dr. Chaos review (NES)

Reviewed on October 15, 2012

At no point was I required to execute tough leaps or weave through a complex arrangement of platforms while worrying about a nearby winged skeleton. Everything was straightforward and obvious, and actually quite dull. Such vapidity brought down the experience as a whole and left me with a new unfortunate outlook on the game.

NiGHTS into Dreams (Xbox 360)

NiGHTS into Dreams review (X360)

Reviewed on October 14, 2012

The Sega Saturn is a go. It’s out at stores near you. It’s bigger, badder, and more uncut than any piddly PSX. It features Sonic Team’s, and therefore SEGA’s, most state-of-the-art Sonic title. It’s called NiGHTS into Dreams. It’s so cutting edge, it bypasses traditional titular capitalization standards and offers full-blown 3D models to the tune of all that jazz. Many who own a Saturn come to own this game, or at least play it. To everyone’s satisfaction, NiGHTS becomes a must-hav...

Ghost Manor (Atari 2600)

Ghost Manor review (A2600)

Reviewed on October 14, 2012

Ghost Manor sacrifices incremental difficulty boosts for variety, essentially providing you with multiple "level ones" that lack the challenge, bite and addictiveness of a typical 2600 game.

Nights Into Dreams review (PS3)

Doesn't play quite like a dream any more, but close enough.

Vampire Rain (Xbox 360)

Vampire Rain review (X360)

Reviewed on October 13, 2012

For five years, Vampire Rain had me spooked, and not because of the experience I had with it. In fact, I never even played this release until 2012.

Dishonored (Xbox 360)

Dishonored review (X360)

Reviewed on October 12, 2012

It's not the shooting or the sneaking or the cutting of throats that makes Dishonored fun. So many games are all about figuring out precisely what the developers intended for you to do. In Dishonored, you'll frequently do things that the developers didn't intend, but it'll work anyway, and it'll be awesome.

BloodRayne (GameCube)

BloodRayne review (GCN)

Reviewed on October 11, 2012

BloodRayne is not a taut scare game or a breathtaking artsy experience. It's an over-the-top action title with horror elements that hits all of the right marks, and sometimes that's all you need.

Code of Princess (3DS)

Code of Princess review (3DS)

Reviewed on October 09, 2012

It’s easy to appreciate each of those characters, from the busty heroine, to the shifty young bard, to a disinterested necromancer and a brutish fellow who likes cuddly forest animals. There is enough charisma here to support a properly lengthy RPG, which means that one of the greatest tragedies in Code of Princess is the fact that the writers weren’t given time to more fully explore the themes and story.

Zombie Shooter 2 (PC)

Zombie Shooter 2 review (PC)

Reviewed on October 09, 2012

Even as a cheap thrill, Zombie Shooter 2 fails to impress, as its unwarranted frustration factor will leave you looking for a more intense and less irksome experience.

Slender: The Eight Pages (PC)

Slender: The Eight Pages review (PC)

Reviewed on October 08, 2012

When I think about my favorite fear moments in video games, the ones that come immediately to mind are those in which I’ve had no ability to fight. Escaping from the Nemesis in Raccoon City; pounding my way through rooms in the Himuro mansion while being pursued by the unstoppable Kirie; desperately fleeing horrifying visions in Amnesia; these define what I look for in a true horror experience. Those moments are all Slender is.

Wonder Boy (Sega Master System)

Wonder Boy review (SMS)

Reviewed on October 06, 2012

Ask any owner of the console if there were any franchises synonymous with the Master System, and you'll likely get Alex Kidd or Wonder Boy as your top answer.

Illusion of Gaia (SNES)

Illusion of Gaia review (SNES)

Reviewed on October 05, 2012

In fact, the beginning of the game is pretty much one big cliche. Shortly after the game begins, Will unintentionally gets on the wrong side of the local king and queen and is forced to flee the area with the rulers' spoiled and naive daughter. Those two join up with a small group of Will's friends and explore the world to find mysterious artifacts and eventually save everything from a fate most dire. Pretty cut and dry on the surface, but as you dig deeper, you'll find that Illusion of Gaia wonderfully establishes a dark and melancholy mood that effortlessly moves this game far beyond being "just another adventure".

Clock Tower (PlayStation)

Clock Tower review (PSX)

Reviewed on October 03, 2012

Clock Tower has some bite to it, mostly because you are not as enabled as Leon Kennedy or even Alan Wake. Your choice of heroes includes a school girl, her not-combat-trained friend, an investigator, and a reporter. In other words, you're screwed.

Assassin's Creed: Revelations (PlayStation 3)

Assassin's Creed: Revelations review (PS3)

Reviewed on October 01, 2012

If you try hard enough, you can get past all of that and have a reasonably good time even without prior knowledge, but of course that’s not the point. If you play Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, the point is that you’ve come all this way with Ezio (and Altair), and now you want to find out their stories end. This is the game that will show you that stuff, and you’ll likely enjoy yourself quite a bit more if you actually care about the characters and the ongoing mythology.

Soul (Xbox 360)

Soul review (X360)

Reviewed on October 01, 2012

I wish I could further yammer on about Soul and its face-breaking difficulty, but the truth is it's a very simple, straightforward game. What you see is what you get. You guide a soul through passageways and try not to touch obstructions. This is familiar territory, as it has been covered by many a flash game.
