Okami – Review

March 30, 2007

Okami is fun to play and has a great personality. It deserves praise for more than just its visuals. There’s nothing else that looks quite like it.

Flushed Away – Review

March 2, 2007

You control Roddy, a sharp-dressed mouse with a cockney accent who needs to find his way back up to his owners’ posh condo after being shot down the crapper.

Family Guy bucks the trend, offering up a nearly perfect encapsulation of the show in game form.

Resident Evil 4 – Review

RE4 was too good for the Gamecube graveyard. Now it’s available on the PS2. Capcom threw in a bonus mission with Ada Wong, the mysterious female gunslinger.

Area 51 – Review

April 28, 2006

Midway has fashioned Area 51 for the PS2, not as a continuation of the light gun game, but as a first-person shooter in the Halo and Metroid Prime vein.
