L.A. Noire really isn’t a video game; it is you stepping back in time and being allowed to control a cinematic masterpiece. At least that’s what it felt like. The year is 1947 and you are in control of a new detective named Cole Phelps, a decorated war hero turned Boy Scout cop, he isn’t likable but he is sharp and you get to stare at his back for 20+ hours of gameplay. The thing that gets you immediately with L.A. Noire is... 

Prepare to step back into the arena where “the meek shall inherit the earth” and the Outworld warriors seek revenge. Yes I am showing my age and yes I used to have the MK3 t-shirt with that quote followed by one of the Kombat Kodes. This marks the 20th year of this game’s existence and the 9th entry to the series. I will cut this intro short and flat out say it this game rocks! And for you PS3 owners you get to play as @!#%$’ing... 

Mass Effect 2 Arrival is the last DLC in this wonderful sequel to the space opera. The point of this particular mission is for Shepard to travel to Batarian space and rescue a covert specialist who happens to be Admiral Hackett’s friend. The mission starts out in what seems to be an abandoned prison and ends up on an asteroid base. The unique thing about Arrival is that Shepard is solo which has not happened in this game before. As... 

EA Sports has been in the boxing game for quite some time now and ever since “Knockout Kings”, they have been trying to perfect the “sweet science”. It wasn’t until the “Fight Night” series that a boxing game came into the limelight on current generation consoles.  After much success EA certainly delivers again this round with Fight Night Champion. One of the most noticeable improvements to Fight Night is the inclusion... 

I wasn’t amped on Dragon Age 2 when I first saw the trailer of mage class Hawke battling the Qunari Arishok to the death. Later on when they showed the actual gameplay it looked so fast and crazy that I assumed that they had abandoned everything from the old and was catering it to the negative attention span of average American gamer. Boy was I ever so wrong. Since the release of the game to my Steam account on PC, I have... 

Even though it is a browser-based game Battlestar Galactica Online has all the makings of your standard mmorpg. You have people begging for help in the chat even though the manual is right at clicking distance, you have elitists telling them to rtfm(read the f-ing manual) and then you have folks discussing the show. Just about everything you can think of goes on in the chat that is typical of any game that’s based off of a... 

Let’s talk about some of the cooler features that separates Marvel vs Capcom 3 from it’s predecessors. One feature that I wanted was some checks and balances on infinites. Something that gave diminishing results for continuously pounding someone with combos and assists to prevent infinite loop exploits by the usual suspects. Well my request was met… kind-of. Not saying that an infinite is impossible in Marvel vs... 

Not since Dance Dance Revolution has there been a dancing game that has kicked this much ass.  Dance Central is one of the reasons many Xbox 360 owners purchased a Kinect.  For me it’s the only reason. The concept of Dance Central is simple.  Pick a song and copy the moves of the character on screen.  Sound simple?  It is!  With the Kinect there’s no need for a controller so anyone can play this game, from gamers to non... 

I have been debating whether or not to buy a Wii since I kept getting mixed reviews on whether I would like it. Then I wasn’t sure if it was worth the price, but with the recent release of the red bundle which included the New Super Mario Bros Wii I finally picked one up. …it was like seeing an old friend from high school at a class reunion… So after hooking the system up I sat down to play Super Mario and it was like... 

After numerous announcements, many delays, and various rumors, Sony’s juggernaut racing simulator is finally here. Producer Kazunori “Kaz” Yamaguchi takes pride in his beloved franchise to share his passion for automobiles with his latest endeavor. But the question is was it worth the wait? For years, the Gran Turismo series has been on the top of its A-game when it comes to racing games. And during that time the game’s...
