Review – Runaway: A Road Adventure (PC)

Péndulo Studios, S.L. | August 28, 2003 So Adventure Games are a bit different than your other game genres.  You often can’t lose and the emphasis is more on the narrative than the “gameplay”.  It’s much closer to being like an interactive novel.  That said, the story can make or break an adventure game easily.  I’ve done a bit of history already here on my plans for upping my intake of Adventure Games.  No need to cover that ground again.  Runaway was the first title I chose in this push, it’s a title I’ve been sitting on for a fairly…

Review – Faerie Solitaire (PC)

Subsoap | 03.15.2009 Solitaire is a game that has like 500 zillion variations.  In fact, Solitaire is more of a genre of card game played alone than a type of game itself.  Faerie Solitaire, as far as I know, isn’t based on a previous “classic” style of Solitaire, but then, the reference material surrounding this game isn’t real plentiful.  It certainly isn’t the standard 7 piles, flip 3, collect Ace through King solitaire.

Review – Time Lord (NES)

Time lord | NES | Milton Bradley | 1989 This game, for me, was a bunch of disappointments, right from the start.  Every year, like any good greedy kid, I would provide my parents with a list of things I wanted for Christmas.  A friend of mine had this pretty neat overhead RPG titled Times of Lore.  I loved to play Times of Lore and really wanted my own copy to play at my leisure, so of course, I put it on my Christmas list. I later realize that the best explanation is that my parents misread what I had…

Review – Movie – Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

I am not going to do a review of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II.  There isn’t any point, this si the 8th movie in a connected overall story and it’s the final chapter.  Even if it were total garbage, people who want to see it will see it.  Instead I will give some thoughts on the movie and the story and the series here in lieu of a true review.  If you want a review, here it is, this movie is pretty much everything you’re probably expecting.  If you’re read the book there will not be any…

Review – Frequency (PS2)

FrequencyPS2 - 1-2 PlayersGameplay – 7/10 Graphics – 7/10 Sound – 9/10 Replay – 6/10 Overall – 7.3/10 Frequency is generally a hard game to describe. There isn't really anything that is much like it. The closest thing I can think of is "DDR without the down arrow", but, there is so much more on inaddition to that so the description doesn't really fit very well. For one, the tracks are a lot longer. Then there's a little ship thing that you'll actually have to control your on top of following thepattern...Well, maybe I should start out simple and then…
