I bought this little number, as I wanted a keyboard with back lighting capabilities under the keyboard for late night frag fest mayhem. It so happens to be designed with the gamer in mind and comes with it's own LCD monitor. In this review, I'll give you the skinny on what this puppy has to offer.   more »

I decided to start a gallery of World of Warcraft of my characters as they progress through the game, since I started one with my other MMO LotR. It's more of a personal gallery rather than a public one, however, all are free to look at any pic(s) you like.   more »

EVE Online is an MMO ( massive multiplayer Online ) game that creates a vast universe for you to explore and seek your fame and fortune in. While it's certainly one of the best looking space games to date, the gameplay is a little "too much like space." There's alot of opportunity for the very patient and persistent gamer, but it's primarily vast in size and filled with alot of empty space.   more »

I first got hooked on LOTR : Shadows of Angmar when I downloaded the Beta for it before it was released. It was a 3 day beta weekend only for this game and I played it pretty much non-stop. I 'KNEW' I had to have this game so at the first opportunity, I pre-ordered it. In this article I gives my views of it and have a few comparisons between this title and World of Warcraft ( since I am a player of both )   more »

Killzone: Liberation is the PSP handheld sequel to a first-person shooter that appeared on Sony's PlayStation 2 some years ago. It follows on from the action depicted in that game, casting you as Captain Templar ( the character you play as ). Liberation has just about zero to do with its PS2 predecessor from a gameplay perspective. It's still a shooter, but the viewpoint has been switched to a 3rd person, 3/4 top-down view. It's my first game purchase as a handheld tactical shooter. This title ensures non-stop fragging mayhem.   more »

Microsoft's Xbox 360 Elite is here, and this version of the sleek, matte-black game console offers more than just cosmetic improvements. The unit's bolstered specs, such as a 120GB hard disk drive and an HDMI 1.2 connector is perfect for today's high-def TVs, which mean more room to store digital content and a better way to view high-definition content. Today I will go over this unit ( since I own it ) and will do some compariosns as well to the Classic Xbox360 ( which I own also ).   more »

Brave Story, but it also manages to be one of the best role-playing titles current available on the PSP. My favorite game genre is RPG, so I was after a title with gameplay credentials more than just eye candy and looks. Brave Story : New Traveller is based on Japanese animation for it's graphics, so it's out of the norm of what I am acustom to, but it does look rather good for a PSP title. But is the gameplay there and is it worth the purchase? Well, we'll see about that....   more »

Although my review is late than never, I've decided to finally put it up on my take of DOOM3. I bought this game the first week upon release. It's a CPU resouce hog, but if you have the horsepower, this game looks gorgerous. It's an old school corridor shooter in a near dark setting, where your only means of travelling forward is by flashlight. But beware... someone...or something may be in waiting ...   more »

Adapted from the terrifying short story by suspense master, Stephen King. Renowned horror novelist Mike Enslin (Cusack) believes only in what he can see with his own two eyes. But after a string of bestsellers discrediting paranormal events in the most infamous haunted houses and graveyards around the world, he has no real proof of life…afterlife. But Enslin’s phantom-free run of long and lonely nights is about to change forever when he checks into suite 1408 of the notorious Dolphin Hotel for his latest project, “Ten Nights in Haunted Hotel Rooms.” Defying the warnings of the hotel manager (Jackson), the author is the first person in years to stay in the reputedly haunted room. Another bestseller may be imminent, but like all Stephen King heroes, first he must go from skeptic to true believer – and ultimately survive the night at the Dolphin Hotel.   more »

Action packed.   more »

Puzzle Quest - Challenge of the Warlords : This game is very similar to the arcade version of Bejeweled 2 for the Xbox360. It's a Puzzle based / RPG. What sets it apart and above it's counterpart is how the game is designed. It's a unique version of chess almost ( my concept of it ). It's a strategic game with roleplaying elements intertwined into the gameplay. Sound interesting? It is...   more »

Actually, it's worth noting that the film is by the author of The Ring. Dark Water doesn't have that many similarities to its predecessor, but it does share a lot theme-wise with The Ring Two. Unfortunately as with The Ring Two, it wasn't a box office smash. Either is Dark Water.... Dark Water, ( directed by Walter Salles ) is at least modulated with some fine acting and claustrophobic visual imagery.   more »
