First Look: Bethesda/Obsidian’s Fallout: New Vegas“War. War never changes…..” The iconic catchphrase first uttered by the unseen narrator of the first game, the last somber words spoken before a sprawling post-apocalyptic world opens up before you, seems an all too appropriate warning for those who venture forth into the radioactive nightmare of the Fallout universe. Humanity’s... [Read more of this review]

MF’s Picks: Sacred 2 Fallen Angel
This title by Ascaron Entertainment probably passed you by completely. It dropped in stores in November 2008, but for PC only. Console players had to wait until March 2009 for their version of the game. I had certainly never heard of Sacred or Sacred 2 before… but when I went in search for games more like my beloved Diablo, this game came... [Read more of this review]
betta’s data: Halo Wars Review
Over 500 years in the future, Humanity meets its very first Extra Terrestrials. Due to the violent nature of the First Contact, the United Nations Space Command proposed a peace offering on planet Harvest. Things were looking hopeful until political greed overcame High Charity and the Covenant declared a genocidal war on the Human race. Halo Wars takes... [Read more of this review]

In it you play as Magnus... [Read more of this review]
Chejaymans Review Kitchen: Dead Space
Heres my Dead Space review. Hopefully its not dull or too long. I can be rather…..thourough at times. I have no graphics for it and to be honest I don’t even have a cool name for my review section…..I dunno, maybe I’ll call it Chejaymans Review Kitchen or something…. Game Reviewed: Dead Space (EA Redwood) Release Date:... [Read more of this review]
Retro Review – Second Sight
You can’t always do the same thing you’ve always done. You keep doing the same thing, over and over, and eventually you wind up with Tomb Raider The Angel Of Darkness. Which is why I was so excited to finally get my hands on an old copy of Second Sight by developer Free Radical Design. Best known for the Timesplitters series of first-person shooters...

MF’s Picks, Multi-player edition: Battlefield 1943
GRENAAAAAA-AAAADE! Keep your head down and your eyes peeled, folks because this game just blindsided you. This relatively new, multiplayer only addition to the Battlefield dynasty launched in July 2009. I picked it up shortly after it premiered and was pleased as punch with my purchase. 1 year later, and the EA servers still struggle with the volume... [Read more of this review]
Earthbound_X’s Random Reviews: Dead Space
I think when Dead Space came out it surprised a lot of people. It was a time when gamers hated EA, just like they hate Activision now(Though to be honest, I think we hate Activision tons more then we ever hated EA). I know it surprised me, I can’t remember thinking all that much about it when it was announced, and I don’t think I paid too... [Read more of this review]
Who should make the Half-Life Movie?
One of the few game franchises not being primed for a big screen adaptation is Valve’s Half-Life series. Of course, that doesn’t mean that there won’t ever be one. Valve CEO and Co-Founder Gabe Newell recently spoke with PC Gamer about how Half-Life could come to the big screen: “As a WoW player, I would much rather that the WoW... [Read more of this review]
Mafia 2 Review
Mafia 2 came out today and I had the honor of picking up the Collector’s Edition that I pre-ordered. First of all, when dealing with a sandbox, open-world, crime game like this, you have to expect it to be compared to the Heavyweight Champion of Open-world crime games, Grand Theft Auto 4. Now, in my opinion, I like Mafia 2 better, the story is... [Read more of this review]
Broke-Ass Gamer
I love games. I am not alone in this. With rent, utilities, insurance, gas, food, and a baby on the way, my bank account usually just flips me off when I check the balance. I’m guessing that with the economy still staggering around broken and bleeding that I am not alone in this, either. So when it’s the end of the month and I’m starting... [Read more of this review]

Heavy Rain – a sprinkling of a review
**WARNING: Spoilers abound, so proceed with caution.** When I started playing Heavy Rain, I couldn’t say that my expectations were high – only because I wasn’t sure of what I was about to experience. I knew it was a “different” way of gaming and I think it would be safe to say that I was curious above all else. The media... [Read more of this review]
MF’s Picks, Retro Edition: Resident Evil 4
Just checked out the Retro Reviews section of the site and immediately one game comes to mind… Resident Evil 4.

Gotta say, from the first encounter at the village, this game had me sucked in and gripping... [Read more of this review]

Oh, Classy: 5 cult classic games that you may have heard about (but were afraid to try).
What defines a video game as a “cult classic?” Is it a game that has a limited, but noted, appeal? A game that transcends normal narrative or technical presentation? Is it a game so quirky, so surrealistic, that as time marches on, it’s remembered as a “game way ahead of it’s time?” Or maybe it’s one of those... [Read more of this review]
