I’m Terrible at Modern Warfare 2
Maybe that headline is not completely appropriate. In prior Call of Duty titles, including the original Modern Warfare and World at War specifically, I was a decent player. My kill-to-death ratio was around 1.25, certainly not great, but tolerable for my own run-and-gun style of play. Modern Warfare 2 however, is different. Currently, with three days [...]

Wednesday, January 13, 2010
Another week, another lone, solitary release. This time, 1200 point remake of a PC classic FPS. Serious Sam HD – The First Encounter Serious Sam returns in this remake of the original, a game that took shooters forward in terms of their insanity levels. Sam crams countless, utterly absurd enemies on-screen at any given time, tough for [...]

Saturday, October 31, 2009
There comes a point in everyone’s life when it is no longer acceptable to knock on a stranger’s door and demand free candy. For me, that time came years ago in an awkward and somewhat humiliating event in which my haphazard costume was mocked by a little old lady, standing in her doorway with a [...]

Thursday, October 22, 2009
The moment I read the title of this game and the tag line, “Prehistoric Survival Action”, fond memories of Dino Crisis flooded my mind (ed. note: Or at least just the first two games, I hope). I then hastily opened up some screenshots and those memories were dragged out into the street and shot, being [...]

Arriving on Steam Oct. 22, it will be the largest free content pack to date.

Wednesday, September 9, 2009
While up for debate, Raven Squad may contain the worst voice acting from this generation of consoles. The actors read their lines with a monotone style that makes the subtitles carry more tension, variables, feeling, and emphasis. At the least the written words understand what an exclamation point is for. Xian, a woman caught behind enemy [...]

Wednesday, June 25, 2008
While hardly scientific and more of an observation, GamePolitics has an interesting look on how violent crime has dropped drastically with the release of heavily criticized titles. While only a few games are mentioned, think of Halo (2001) or Counter-Strike (2003) and place them on the chart. A number of outside factors considered (crimes not [...]

Monday, December 24, 2007
The FPS has always been seen as the poster child of PC gaming. Innovative titles that pushed game design and game hardware to their limits established the first-person shooter as the go-to genre for the hardcore PC gamer. Wolfenstein 3D and Doom established the rules of the genre; Duke Nukem 3D pushed them [...]

Tuesday, December 4, 2007
Even though it’s still early, Empires 2.0 is one of the best Half-Life 2 mods available. It just entered beta a few days ago and has already built an active community of players. The mod plays like a combination of the best elements of a Battlefield game and Command & Conquer: Renegade. [...]

Friday, November 30, 2007
Ubisoft has delayed the release of pretentious first-person shooter Haze from early December to the first quarter of 2008, according to Gamasutra. The timed PS3 exclusive, Free Radical-developed shooter should be worth the wait, however, because it’s, like, totally a work of art, man. All joking aside, Haze hasn’t failed to impress with its gorgeous [...]

Friday, October 19, 2007
Well, this definitely isn’t always true. However, 2007 is the year of the shooter games. Every gamer anticipated the release of Halo 3 for months, if not longer, but the excitement do not end there. One could criticize the product release tactics of the Epic Games, but where they lack in the strategy of marketing, [...]
