Sure, you could google and find several handfuls of professional reviews strewn about the interwebs, but it's going to be hard to find some impressions and benchmarks from someone like you.

Europeans up in arms to protect the freedom to download free stuff

CaimDark | 2 hour ago - 3:41 PM on 02.11.2012

Or so would have us believe. It's amazing how they casually reduce opposition to ACTA to the desire to "download free entertainment". Because that's exactly the kind of thing that motivates thousands to take to the streets in the face of freezing cold. Virtually no mention is made of any other conc...

Do you ever play a game and find a character to have an uncanny resemblance to another character, be it their personality or appearance? Related? Is Ieyasu's Kyo's ancestor? When it comes to martial arts, there is only one king in each realm. Date=Dante? Well, they have the same produce...

As much as I hate to admit it, I can't really call myself a die-hard, true-blue Mega Man fan (I don't even know if it's typed Mega Man or Megaman). I was a Sega/Sonic kid back in the day, then got an N64, and then a GameCube; a lot of those old-school adventures are lost on me. But even so, I ca...

While playing MAG last week, I took note of two gamertags... ugotkilledbyachick and agirlkilledu. Their gamertags irritated me. In fact, "irritated" is probably too mild a word as I think I said something to the effect of "I just got killed by "ugotkilledbyachick" - I f'ing hate stupid gamertags...

There are literally millions of games, a plethora of genres and a bazillion different typed of gamers.

Okay, this one is going to be a quickie, because my hour spent with this game made me remove it from my list. There will be no "the good, the meh, the bad" segments. I couldn't find much to say in "the meh," much less "the good." I played this game for one solid hour, and every second of it was ar...

I'm not saying for sure, but I've been sick all week and writing is hard when you can barely stay awake for long bits of the day. I'll try my best to have Resident Evil 0 (Nintendo 64) up by Sunday, but if not, it'll be up as soon as it's done. Thanks for understanding.

If I were to list my two biggest passions in life, it would probably be music and video games.

Amalur is one of those “controversial darlings” with the gaming media right now. It’s already gotten near perfect scores but it’s also gotten a 2.5 from Adam Sessler and a 7.5 at gamespot. (Not to say a 7.5 is terrible mind you) As of now I’ve only spent a short time with Amalur. To be frank it...
