The Witcher 2 360 and PC: Impressions

In adapting the game to the 360, CD Projekt RED put special emphasis on character model resolutions, so Geralt and his companions look rather nice even compared to the PC. I was shocked that the 360 version keeps the insanely detailed environments of the original game. Though the resolution and texture quality take a major hit, the forest surrounding Flotsam (the hub of Act 1) puts even Skyrim’s flora and fauna to shame.

Trials Evolution – Review

Trials HD was considered a masterpiece for its technical proficiency, addictive qualities, and pick-up-and-play nature. But instead of changing much with Trials Evolution, RedLynx decided to play it safe. They released more of what their fans loved while not improving the periphery in any meaningful way.

Fable Heroes – Review

“Fable Heroes” on Xbox LIVE Arcade is an action-packed hack-and-slash adventure set in the “Fable” universe, it is a fresh spin on the franchise, taking playful competition to the next level with four player co-op, time trials and leaderboards on Xbox LIVE. In “Fable Heroes” players work together to defeat enemies while also competing with each other to collect gold coins, which will level up their character and unlock unique items in “Fable: The Journey” when it launches later this year.

Bloodforge – Review

Judging by the promo materials and the the developer’s past success, Bloodforge could have been a winner. Instead, a combination of deep-rooted design flaws and bugs make this a poor God of War clone. Even at the price of 1200 Microsoft Points, this one isn’t worth your money or your time.

Risen 2: Dark Waters Impressions

You could commend the game for the volume of content, but the majority that I played was filler rather than killer. For returning players there might be some curiosity regarding the series’ hero, and the new Titan, but for any newcomer tempted by the promise of pirates the disappointment will quickly set in. This will be a game that people will end up picking up as part of a Steam sale, and lay unplayed in their library.

Fall Damage: 125 – The Panties Show

We’re back doing our best to keep the world from ending. Niki hates all of you, but loves Prototype 2. Pete talks about Arkham City’s eventual shark-jumping, then promptly dies (or does he?) Adam talks Dragon’s Dogma, The Walking Dead, and why you shouldn’t base your life off of warnings shouted at you by random vagrants in alleys. Dan questions the choices in his life that have led him to this (not audibly.)
