Major League Baseball 2k10 Review

Major League Baseball 2k10 Review
Major League Baseball 2k9 was one of the worst sports games ever made. Shaky controls, an unlimited ability to hit home runs, and unacceptable glitches plagued the game and made it unplayable. Thankfully, MLB 2k10 does not suffer like its predecessor. While the single-player modes do not offer the same...

NCAA Basketball 10 Review

NCAA Basketball 10 Review
Every year EA Sports tries to sell its NCAA Basketball game as the best one ever, especially in gameplay and authenticity. This year, it falls short like a buzzer-beating heave that hits the front rim and leaves the stadium gasping. I am guilty for drinking the Kool-aid and believing this year’s game...

Assassin’s Creeed II Review

Assassin’s Creeed II Review
Ubisoft Montreal’s Assassin’s Creed divided the gaming community. You either thought that the game was a stroke of genius or that it was a good idea gone awry. Originally marketed as an assassination game set in the Holy Land during the Crusades, it turned out to take place in modern times...

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Review

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Review
As someone who grew up during the fierce Nintendo/Sega rivalry of the 1990s, I never thought that I would see a day where Mario and Sonic appeared on the same system. Yet, in 2002, after Sega abandoned hardware production, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle was released for the Nintendo Gamecube. The next natural...

Modern Warfare 2 Review

Modern Warfare 2 Review
How does one assess Modern Warfare 2? It is a surprisingly difficult question to answer. As the true successor to the mega-hit Call of Duty 4, Modern Warfare 2 warrants comparison to its predecessor. Call of Duty 4 was a beautifully polished game, featuring both a memorable campaign and addictive multiplayer....

The Beatles: Rock Band Review

The Beatles: Rock Band Review
The Beatles: Rock Band holds the distinction of the most anticipated video game ever. All of the blockbusters such as Grand Theft Auto IV, Halo 3, and the yearly release of Madden cannot hold a candle to the amount of hype that The Beatles: Rock Band received over this past summer. The appearance of...

Impressions: Wolfenstein

Impressions: Wolfenstein
Here are the first 30 minutes of the game, heavily edited and spliced into a ten minute video. Have any you readers gotten a look at Wolfenstein? What are your thoughts on the game so far? Here’s a lazy bulleted list of what I got from my short playthrough. Super violent, this game is reaching...

EA’s NHL: The best ever

EA’s NHL: The best ever
The first video game I ever played was Sonic the Hedgehog for Sega Genesis. I use the term “play” in the loosest sense of the word because the experience consisted of me running right into the first enemy three times before my cousin explained to me that I needed to jump on the robots and collect...
