2009′s release of Need For Speed: Shift was a kind of reinvention of the series. Shift focused on legal, closed course racing and had a physics system that leaned towards a more simulation type experience as opposed to an arcade racer feel. It was met with a fair amount of good press and critical acclaim, receiving higher scores than any of the previous three NFS releases.

Although Fallout: New Vegas might be a sequel taking place in the same universe as its predecessor, those of you who have not played Fallout III have nothing to worry about when it comes to understanding the game’s narrative. Simply put, the bomb has dropped on the United States, and the survivors of the tragedy are left to pick up the pieces.

You wake up on a ship and have no recollection of how you got there. That’s not what’s troubling you the most, though, because the ship is sinking and your room is filling up with water. As luck would have it, the door that leads to your salvation is locked.

God Hand is a game that does not care what you think of it. It is the sort of game you might see strolling down the road in clown makeup and a feathered boa, ignoring the stares of passersby.

I picked up a copy of Rune Factory for the DS because it’s a “fantasy Harvest Moon” game. This intrigued me since the Harvest Moon games can be fun and addicting. I don’t know what weirdo thought people would enjoy a video game where you take care of a farm and find a suitable dame, but I am thankful for that weirdo because they are so much fun to play.

Unfortunately, in today’s entertainment world, many video game developers will cut corners to save a buck and overprice things like downloadable content to maximize their company’s profits. As unlikely as it sounds, Rockstar’s recent downloadable content for Red Dead Redemption, titled Undead Nightmare, has restored my faith in humanity.

You may find numerous online bike racing games available today, and they are the best alternative for a lot of us who nurture serious passion towards motorcycles. These games can provide real life thrill for those who can’t afford to participate in real life racing. Thanks to video games, they can provide a better understanding on how our favorite riders control their motorcycles.

The PS2 isn’t dead. But it’s slowly getting there. That’s why it’s important for more people to copy their PS2 games to CD/DVD. As we all know, the rise of seventh and eight generation gaming consoles have garnered the attention of gamers everywhere. The topics that dominate game forums today are of the comparisons between the Xbox 360 and the PS3, or of which new much hyped games are coming out this year. You really don’t hear much about the PS2 anymore.

Portal 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed 2007 puzzle first person shooter Portal. Let’s see how Valve fared on their latest offering.

As we all know, Rockstar revolutionized the open world format with their Grand Theft Auto games. Interestingly enough, I also recently played Mafia II, which was basically designed to be similar to GTA, so plugging into L.A.

It’s become a tired crutch for console manufacturer’s to force mascot party games onto the public. Usually they try to capitalize on each franchises individual success while piggy backing some other “thing” in hopes it gets some of the residual cred. In this case, that “thing” is the PlayStation Move and the mascots are the characters from famed franchises Jak & Daxter, Ratchet & Clank and Sly Cooper. I’ve said before that I’m a big fan of motion controls and the prospect of evolving the tools with which gamers can experience games, but this is not the way to do it. PlayStation Move Heroes is a functional game, but not a good one. And to clarify – nothing about it tells me it’s even even a party game – go figure.

LEGO has a long tradition of making great toys, and has introduced kids around the world to the joys of building blocks. Recently they have been producing great video games too, and the LEGO Star Wars games are some of their best.
