Darksiders Review

Darksiders Review

You know what they say, you can’t make an apocalypse without breaking a few seals. Darksiders makes one hell of an apocalypse. This Zelda-clone is a lot better than its derivative nature would suggest.

Aveyond: Lord of Twilight Review

Aveyond: Lord of Twilight Review

Vampires, Orbs, and Curses oh my. A thief is thrown into a plot to destroy the world, and only her wits will save her and her friends.

Demon’s Souls Review

Demon’s Souls Review

Whoever said that dying was not fun has clearly never played Demon’s Souls. This game is brutal, but it will lovingly hold your hand as you die for the hundredth time.

Half-Minute Hero Review

Half-Minute Hero Review

Saving the world is a tough job, but it’s even tougher when you’re on the clock. Is this a job worth taking, or should you punch out early?

Gyromancer Review

Gyromancer Review

The Woods are literally a twisting and turning place when the mage Rivel must track down Temperance in a puzzle RPG combining a powerhouse from each genre. If their powers combined create a game of repute, it may mean something, but otherwise it would be all for naught.

Borderlands Xbox 360 Review

If you enjoy melting the faces off bandits, blowing up giant insects, and collecting hundreds of cool weapons in the process, Borderlands could be the game for you.

Atelier Annie: Alchemists of Sera Island Review

Are you ready to resort to alchemy? Agent Pepe is ready to make players work hard and sweat bullets. Just be careful: he’s a harsh master, and cannot handle those who love to nap and eat Puni pudding. Can Annie measure up?

Grey Wardens get no rest, and neither do those playing Dragon Age: Origins. If you haven’t begun your quest to try and stop the Blight just yet, this review might help to recruit you.

Dragon Age: Origins Xbox 360 Review

RPGamer returns to Ferelden in this second take on BioWare’s latest RPG epic. Another Grey Warden has stepped up to defeat the darkspawn, but did he enjoy the journey as much as the last?

Adventures to Go! Review

Adventures to Go! Review

I’d like a large burger combo with a root beer to drink. Throw in a side order of monsters and mayhem in the forest and some caves, too. Oh, and can this be an order to go, please?

Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days Review

Demon’s Souls Review

Demon’s Souls Review

Do you dare set foot in accursed Boletaria? What awaits you in the treacherous, demon-plagued lands of a once-proud nation? Pain and suffering or one heck of a good time? Perhaps both?

Vixen 357 Retroview

If it had crossed the Pacific, usurping Shining Force II’s status as (probably) the Genesis’ best tactical game was not going to happen, but this game remains a worthy diversion for anyone with an interest in the system’s less-known offerings.
