Review – Battlefield 1 (PC, PS4, Xbox One)

2016 - EA DICE - Single Player/ Online Mutiplayer The Good Visuals are top notch and dense World evolves and changes as the battle continues Massive miltiplayer battles that really feel like a war. The Bad Dense visuals can be extremely confusing most of the time Leveling process is extremely slow Price (Game, Micro Transactions, DLC, etc) Note, I generally try to use my own screen shots but despite my best efforts with several tools, I couldn't get this game to TAKE screen shots.  Chock that into the negatives if you want.  These shots are pretty indicative of what things…

Review – Shadow Complex (PC, PS4, Xbox One)

2009, 2015 - Chair - 1 Player The Good Metroidvania games are pretty much awesome by default. Interesting use of 2D and 3D Fun gameplay and puzzles The Bad Not a lot of enemy variety. Controls can be frustrating at times Bosses are kind of a joke tl;dr Review I, like many others I gather, often have a pile of games from bundles that never end up getting played.  Recently Shadow Complex appeared in a Humble Bundle and came recommended, so I opted to actually give it a shot.  I was really surprised just how good it ended up being.…

Review – Back to the Future the Game (PC)

Telltale is one of those companies that focuses on a single type of game.  They are the absolute king of the “Slightly Overly Simple Un-losable Adventure Game” niche.  They are also working very hard on becoming king of the “Somewhat Unlikely Licensed Based Slightly Overly Simple Un-losable Adventure Game” niche.  They have Homestar Runner, Wallace & Grommit, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park and Law & Order, just to name, well, most of them.  There is also Sam & Max but I believe that is an in house property.  Back to the Future was the first real hit in this…

Review – Saints Row the Third DLC Part 1: Genki Bowl VII & Shark Attack Pack (PC)

I’m pretty torn on the Downloadable content for Saints Row the Third here.  On one hand, I really love this game, and more is good.  On the other hand, a load of it is costumes that SHOULD have been built into the game to start with.  At the very least they should run closer to a buck each and not the standard $2-$3.  Yeah, yeah, $3 is not much but consider that at this point, buying all of the DLC will cost you MORE than the game itself.  It adds up. I did get some of the DLC off of…

Review – BIT.TRIP BEAT (PC)

Gaijin Games |  Nov 2nd, 2010 What do you get when you take the simplicity of Pong, a game that involves hitting small square “balls” with a rectangular paddle, and add in some musical aspects, a bit of plot, and ramp up the play mechanics beyond a 2 player game of tennis?  Whatever it would be, it’s probably pretty close to BIT.TRIP BEAT. Ok, really the only thing they really share in common is hitting balls with paddles and retro styling. The general premise here is that you must deflect a series of rhythmic balls back with your paddle.  They…
