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.

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.

‘Caprica’ Pilot Review

‘Caprica’ Pilot Review
Viewers were stunned back in 2003 when Ronald Moore and David Eick’s “Battlestar Galactica” exploded on to Syfy. Taking their concept from the admittedly campy 1978 series created by Glen Larson, Moore and Eick put together an epic sci-fi saga. That series left audiences with one phrase in...

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...

The Ricky Gervais Show, Ep. 1 Review

The Ricky Gervais Show, Ep. 1 Review
Ricky Gervais’ new show is all about his comedy podcast that enjoyed an enormous following. Sitting down with his good friend and colleague Stephen Merchant and the absent-minded Karl Pilkington, they basically talk about nothing. The show has a unorganized format because Gervais and Merchant react...

People will say their true feelings bluntly, however, there is an understanding that these things won’t be remembered in the morning. Unfortunately,...
