Dekidification: Final Thoughts on Heavy Rain

I finished playing Heavy Rain on Tuesday night, and I’ve got to say that I loved it. It’s odd though – while I expected to want to immediately launch into a second playthrough as I did with Dragon Age, I’m finding that I’m content with the story I’ve chosen. Since so much of the game’s […]

That’s how you do it! God of War III Demo

I have a special love/hate relationship with game demos. I love the fact that they exist. I tend to think of it as good omen for a game if the publisher releases a demo as opposed to forcing you to make your purchasing decision strictly off screenshots and online reviews. Kinda like how bad movies […]

Consequences: Heavy Rain Initial Impressions

I’ve been playing Heavy Rain now for two evenings, and I’m probably 5 or 6 hours in. Before they made Heavy Rain, Quantic Dream released a game called Indigo Prophecy, which I absolutely loved despite the game’s severely flawed denoument. I can say now that although Heavy Rain contains no science fiction beyond some advanced […]

Way out of the Trine

I just got my first platinum trophy today for finishing every achievement in Trine.Working my way through every experience vial in the game was the part that took the longest, and I’ll admit: I had to consult a few online guides to find a few of the more cleverly hidden ones. But this is the […]

Using the AV output on a PS3

Free Game Friday: Dante’s Inferno Demo

With Dante’s Inferno right around the corner, why not spend your Friday butchering demons and classic works of literature at the same time?  Ok, so it’s not exactly a free game and you need either a PS3 or an Xbox 360 to play it but hey, I’m new to this whole free game thing.   Hell, […]

Darksiders and the Lure of Easy Criticism

I’ve been playing a lot of Darksiders the past couple of weeks taking a whirlwind tour through post-apocalyptic Earth as War, one of the four Horsemen.  Along the way I’ve killed many the demon, rode many the mile and amassed a collection of armaments and weapon enhancements to make Kratos proud.  I found the game […]

Trine

My wife and I have been seriously digging Trine. After having played it over the weekend, I’m ready to say that it’s a front-runner for best game I’ve played in 2009. Granted, I have yet to play Dragon Age: Origins, and I’m not sure whether I’ll be playing Uncharted 2 in 2009, but as of […]

Netflix on the Playstation 3

Wow. Check it out. It looks like Playstation 3 owners will be able to stream content from Netflix as early as November. This is huge news for me, as my household doesn’t even subscribe to cable. We get pretty much all our programming from Netflix and from Hulu. Now there’ll be no more waiting for […]
