PAYDAY 2 Review!

PAYDAY 2 Review!

PAYDAY 2 is a fast, frantic, and fun heist game to play with your buddies. While its single player mode falls flat, PAYDAY 2 more than makes up for it while playing online. Console players might feel left out as the PC version continues to receive weekly updates and content. If you’ve ever seen HEAT, the film written and directed by Michael Mann, then you know that it’s the gold standard heist mov...

Gears of War: Judgment Review

Gears of War Judgment Community Page My friends and I spent most of 2006 anxiously awaiting a bold and fresh new game chock-full of epic combat, awesome multiplayer, and copious amounts of gore. That game was Gears of War, and when it hit our Xbox 360s we played it like no other. When Gears of War 2 hit the shelves we scoffed at some of the changes, but still, we adapted and continued with our dai...

The Walking Dead Episode 5 Review

Welcome to the end. The Walking Dead Episode 5: No Time Left is an emotional rollercoaster that is full of joy, terror, and sadness.

The Walking Dead: Episode 4 Review

Although this episode is fantastic it its own right, it falls drastically short of previous episodes. Lapses in Telltale’s masterful storytelling lead to an indifferent feeling towards new characters with a few spoon-fed emotions along the way. To be fair, most of my critic...

The Walking Dead: Episode 3 Review

The Walking Dead: Episode 3 -Long Road Ahead is, in one word, intense.

Dishonored Review

Dishonored Review

Dishonored Community Page If I’ve learned anything from playing Dishonored it’s that no digital foe is safe from my wrath even if I’m given the option to be a pacifist. Yes, I could have used a sleeping dart, but decided to use cold steel instead. Yes, I could have chosen not to summon a rat swarm to devour the corpse of a recently assassinated guard, but I had to get rid of the body somehow. I co...
