I really don’t care if everyone hates me. Right now, I feel invincible. (Well, not really.) Moments ago Mr. FedEx delivered a package from Mr. Microsoft to Mr. Brendon, and what should be in said package but (as Eddie calls… Read More »

Halo 3 is just around the corner, and I’m in a good mood. (Even though my Red Wings just finished the worst hockey season ever [I don’t know if it is, I don’t watch hockey] in NHL Live 08.) Despite… Read More »

Soul Nomad & the World Eaters Review

By Brendon Lindsey, September 20, 2007 0 GN, VG Review

Slightly off-key humor, lovable characters, a plot with twists and turns reminiscent of Chutes and Ladders — yup, it’s another Nippon Ichi RPG! NIS’s latest outing, Soul Nomad for the PS2, is one fans of all the other NIS franchises… Read More »

Heavenly Sword Review

By Brendon Lindsey, September 14, 2007 0 GN, VG Review

Stranglehold Review

By Brendon Lindsey, September 7, 2007 0 GN, VG Review

I always get a kick out of playing the latest Tiger Woods game. I’ve always found that odd, since I absolutely detest playing golf in real life. (Maybe it’s because I suck? Nah.) With Tiger Woods 07, EA had a… Read More »

The winner of the second contest (the posting one) was jambo. In commemoration of his victory (which, oddly enough, were the same odds USC had against Idaho) I have taken several seconds to write a short limerick (in the full… Read More »

Lair Review

By Brendon Lindsey, September 2, 2007 0 GN, VG Review

Games like Lair make me sad. You have an incredible story and world fully fleshed out in beautiful cinematic cutscenes, but the gameplay is just downright frustrating and boring.  The initial story to Lair doesn’t seem like anything too awesome;… Read More »

Two Worlds Review

By Brendon Lindsey, September 2, 2007 0 GN, VG Review

Two Worlds is a very fitting title. On one side, you have the game with a lot of exploring opportunities, freedom, and customization; on the other, you have the game with the horrible bugs, awful framerates, uninspired scenery, and insanely… Read More »
