Chillingo is back again, publishing an interesting take on your standard side scrolling shoot-em-up. Underground (link takes you to the App Store) is a shooter steeped in graffiti and tagging culture. Everything from the location in the subway system, the sound effects, the soundtrack and enemies all scream tagging. Its interesting to say the least, [...]

Hidden somewhere under appropriately post-apocalyptic shades of grey and brown, there’s a deep Role Playing Game in Fallout 3.  Somewhere. Granted, it’s hard to demonstrate the intricacies of a naturally long game in such a lamentably short period of time, I’m confident that somewhere, somehow, Bethesda has the ingredients for next great blockbuster western RPG. So [...]

The Bourne Conspiracy, Reviewed [Xbox 360, PS3]

Tuesday, June 3, 2008

Not unlike the films it’s based on, The Bourne Conspiracy is incoherent, repetitious and spectacularly violent. With an amnesia-fueled plot, players take control of secret agent and super assassin, Jason Bourne in, a game that maintains the fast paced action and cinematic elements of the Bourne films to create a fun atmosphere in which to [...]
