Iron Man is Flaccid

Iron Man is burning up the movie theatres with one of the most successful releases in movie historee, but his pathetic video game adaptation ain’t making any friends. What’s wrong with it? What’s always wrong with these movie-oriented cash-ins? Bad controls, repetitive environments and missions, rampant boredom in general.
If you’re interested, GameTrailers has a video […]

Yahtzee On Chains of Olympus and Me On Yahtzee

Yes. Take that title in any sexual manner you like. I have a fever of about 100 and I’ve been cheated because I feel like shit, but I’m not hallucinating.
Yahtzee has posted his usual Wednesday rant, this time for God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP.

Yahtzee’s kind of an interesting individual because I […]

Yahtzee Makes the Devil Cry

Yahtzee, famous for owning a set of lungs with the capacity of shopping bags, has unleased his review of Devil May Cry 4:

DMC 4 has consistently recieved favourable reviews, but it’s not as if Yahtzee doesn’t bring up some good points. Respawning enemies, except in special cases where it actually does contribute to the gameplay […]

New Turok Probably Won’t Poison You

Kombo has published a generally favourable review of the new-gen Turok game. I’m still not sure if I’m going to touch the title with a ten-foot dinosaur-poking pole. Too many bad memories.
I played Turok on the N64 when I was coming down from the marvel of Super Mario 64. Between using the camera buttons […]

Harvey Birdman, not so much an Ace Attorney

Gametrailers has released its review of Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law. To my surprise and slight disappointment, it would seem the game’s not as detailed as I first imagined.

I’m pretty big into Phoenix Wright (though I haven’t played Trials and Tribulations yet, urgh). The games are pretty much good only for a once-through, […]

Yahtzee Not Silent About Silent Hill

Famous fast-talking game critic Yahtzee has lots to say about Silent Hill Origins for the PSP, and a great deal of it is justified:

Reception for The Golden Compass: Downright chilly

What do you get when you cross a polar bear with a little girl? A bad game based on a bad movie based on a good book. In other words, a small tragedy.
AMN’s review of The Golden Compass for the Playstation 3 brings up a complaint we see so often with licensed games: Corners cut […]
