When It Rains, It Pours [Heavy Rain Review]
March 8th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Gaming, Reviews
Quantic Dream’s Heavy Rain for the Playstation 3 is a title that tends to have a polarizing effect on gamers. Love it or hate it, it has generated a lot of discussion. Some deride it as a waste of time–a game that holds your hands with a long cutscene advanced by button presses. Others consider [...]

+800 Microsoft Points
October 14th, 2009 · 5 Comments · Gaming, Reviews
Microsoft’s Summer of Arcade has come and gone. A couple of weeks ago I got a message from LIVE letting my know that 800 points had been credited to my account. This made me look back at the 5200 points I spent to get this rebate.
When I first saw the line up, I was unsure of most of the titles. Getting 800 points back was a nice incentive to take a chance on them. Now, having played all of them, I found that my expectations and my experiences with the games did not match up.
