Final Fantasy XII Review

Final Fantasy meets Star Wars?...not really

the one about Killzone 3

Most Killzone 3 reviews seem to focus on two points; 1. It looks great and 2. The story is bad. After completing the campaign last Friday night, I can't help but agree.

A look back at 2010

With 2010 behind us I thought I’d take a look back at some of my favorite games. It was a pretty busy year for me but I managed to complete 18 titles and hit a couple of milestones along the way.

2011 in our hands

Besides the deluge of console games coming this year, we'll also have a flood of options for mobile gaming.
