The Godfather: Blackhand Edition Published Date: Jul 23, 2007First of all, this game isn’t just a film adaptation, it’s also a port. So if you’re familiar with any of the Godfather merchandise, you’ll be familiar with the story of the Blackhand Edition. But don’t worry: Even if you come at this game knowing the films and knowing the earlier game ver...

The Darkness Published Date: Jul 23, 2007In a world of mediocre first person shooter romps through the never-ending landscapes of WWII, killing wave after wave of evil Nazi’s, it takes something special to perk an avid gamer’s attention. The Darkness is one such game. First of all, a bit of background. The Darkness is based on a s...

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfi Published Date: Jul 23, 2007I wish I were Tom Clancy. Aside from having a stellar writing career, he’s now got almost as many games with his name scrawled across the box as I’ve had cheap beers. But as the games that adorn his name are so damn good, it’s not something we’ll complain about. Ubisoft and Clancy make ...

The Sims 2: Pets Published Date: Jul 21, 2007The Sims, first released back in 2000, was something a quiet if quite strange revolution in gaming. Rather than firm, ends-based objectives, such as killing zombies, winning trophies, or solving puzzles, The Sims focused on the routine awfulness of everyday life. Players--or, better yet, innocuous m...

Tony Hawk's Project 8 Published Date: Apr 4, 2007I am not a skater. I have never “ollied” or “nailed a long grind” before. That being said, the Tony Hawk series of games was always my chance to skate with the big boys, and I was excited (to say the least) as I used a blowtorch and scalpel to pry my new copy of THP8 from the grips of the c...

The Godfather Published Date: Apr 4, 2007Sniff, sniff. I’m sorry, I am getting very emotional! It’s just that Luca Brasi was such a nice guy. A big cuddly teddy bear who just happened to carry a six shooter and some piano wire. Now he’s dead, sleeping with the fishes! DAMN That Turk!!! May his Bolognese sauce never cling to his spagh...

Test Drive Unlimited Published Date: Apr 4, 2007Hawaii is known for its beaches, surfing, beautiful half naked women and generally being a paradise on Earth. Apparently it is not known for its Police’s ability to chase down a moving violation or for its penalties for hit and runs because I totalled at least a couple of hundred cars, and those p...

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent Published Date: Apr 4, 2007If you’ve never played Splinter Cell before, than at least you’ve surely seen some awesome stills from the series: A burly spy dangling overhead from exposed ceiling piping, barely visible in the shadows, a silenced gun in his extended and gloved hand. Or: A burly spy with night-vision goggles, ...
