Father’s Day – Review

February 17, 2012

The glorious poster art promises great things. Forearm-sized pistol barrels, bloody chainsaws about to get licked, heaving cleavage, and daisy dukes.

Orange Goblin – A Eulogy for the Damned – Review

February 17, 2012

UK metal veterans Orange Goblin come out of the gate swinging on their first album in five years. “Red Tide Rising” punches with some hefty old-school force.

Final Fantasy – XIII-2 – Review

February 10, 2012

Exploring the game’s gorgeous environments and manipulating the fast-paced battle system is a joy, but the story and characters miss the mark.

Hit The Lights – Invictus – Review

February 10, 2012

Everything is an anthem on Invictus, the third full-length from Hit The Lights. That’s not really true, but it often feels that way.

Lacuna Coil – Dark Adrenaline – Review

February 3, 2012

“Trip The Darkness” is streamlined and effective: even if modern-day Lacuna Coil is miles away from the more thoughtful, expansive sounds of Unleashed Memories.

X – The Unheard Music – Review

January 27, 2012

X is the coolest band ever. From the twisted poetry of Exene and John Doe to the steely-eyed perpetual smile of Billy Zoom to a drummer named D.J. Bonebrake.

January 20, 2012

This absorbing horror play about Japanese students trapped in a creepy interdimensional school is more affecting than games with ten times the resources.

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 – Review

December 30, 2011

Many of the characters from the original game have been tinkered with, adding new moves and adjusting their power balance. Everything you want in an expansion.

The Adventures of Tintin – The Game – Review

December 23, 2011

Levels are straightforward, combat is one button and can’t-lose, and puzzles aren’t going to stump anyone. A great fit for young or inexperienced gamers.
