Chucks Challenge 3D Review

Chucks Challenge 3D Review

The gameplay in Chucks Challenge 3D is as a whole is pretty good. I found some of the puzzles legitimately challenging, leaving me to sit there and ponder over the possible solutions. To the games credit, the puzzles are really good. The bulk of the puzzles revolve around pushing blocks around, which  on paper sounds boring and repetitive but Chucks Challenge 3D mixes it up well. The main challeng...

Gravi Review

Gravi Review

I think that puzzle games have advanced the most over the last few years. From simple games like Tetris to Portal, puzzle games have seen huge advancements. Sure shooters have gotten more advanced, but whole new forms of puzzle games have been created. Ones that incorporate physics and others that bend reality. Gravi is an example of a physics puzzle game, or more accurately a gravity puzzle game....

Finally the game was released in 2012 and has ...

Bioshock Infinite Review

Bioshock Infinite Review

Bioshock Infinite Community Page Wow, what a magical spectrum I’ve just had. After completing Bioshock Infinite I felt I needed to think on my experience and address myself the journey I witnessed. There are not too many games that have that effort on me, but the combined arts of wonderful storytelling and a flourishing world can get you drawn like that. I’m sure this goes towards most of you as w...

XCOM Enemy Unknown Review

Costume Quest Review

Costume Quest Community Page I’m going to give away the end of this article for you right now: Costume Quest is good. You should buy it and sit down with a mug of cider to celebrate the only holiday where the color orange is ubiquitous. It’s an XBLA, Playstation Network, and PC title, so go get it. I have a weird relationship with October. I love the idea of it because I love the heck out of fall....

Guild Wars 2 Review

Guild Wars 2 Community Page I am going to admit that it has been a while since I have played an MMO While blockbuster releases like ‘World of Warcraft’ bored me to death and intergalactic space adventures like ‘EVE Online’ had me asking “What is the point?” It is Guild Wars 2 that officially brings in a breath of fresh air to the genre. Guild Wars 2 takes place in the rather magical world of Tyria...

FTL : Faster Than Light Review

FTL : Faster Than Light Review

I have a love/hate relationship with roguelike games, and some of that shows up with FTL here.  I like the randomly generated events and resources that comes with roguelike games, but I'm also not a fan of the radical difficulty in roguelike games or the permanent death system.  FTL does have these features, but at the same time it’s also a fun game to play.  It stands out from other roguelike gam...
