PAX 10: Crysis 2 Multiplayer (Chris’ Impressions)
In: Reviews by Chris "FighterAce100" Salazar
3 Sep 2010During a preview party that we were invited to by Electronic Arts in Seattle, we got a first-hand look at Crysis 2 months before release, giving us a sense of what it is going to bring us for multiplayer and the style of FPS it presents to its fans.

PAX 10: Crysis 2 Multiplayer (Nick’s Impressions)
In: Reviews by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola
3 Sep 2010When I first saw video of Crysis 2 from E3, I thought it looked like a surprisingly generic shooter.
Some kind of super soldier fighting aliens in a ruined city? I’ve been there and done that, and I’ll already be doing it again this Fall with Halo: Reach. I don’t really want to play the same [...]

Need for Read: Part 3
In: Reviews by Dave "Holy Goalie" Gardner
2 Sep 2010What does Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 voice-recognition software have to do with video games? Nothing. Except that the fact I will be doing most, if not all, of my GameHounds writing using my new Dragon software.
In fact, I’ve only been using this software for about 10 minutes and already I learned how to program “GameHounds” into [...]
Review: Netflix for iPhone
In: Reviews by Dave "Holy Goalie" Gardner
31 Aug 2010It’s official. Netflix is now everywhere.
Well, maybe not everywhere, but it is now available on your iPhone and iPod Touch, which allows me to watch Netflix in about every way possible that I can in my house.
First it was on the DVD player, then it was on the computer. Next came my Xbox 360 and [...]

Review: Golems of Amgarrak (DLC)
In: Reviews by Nicholas "Heartbreak Ridge" Sylvain
27 Aug 2010As I noted in my review of Leliana’s Song (the previous DLC for Dragon Age: Origins), Bioware is taking a very experimental approach to its DLC. Each release is different in some way, perhaps as Bioware makes careful plans for their post–Dragon Age II DLC? The Golems of Amgarrak continues in this vein as Bioware [...]

Review: Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days
In: Reviews by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola
19 Aug 2010Kane & Lynch: Dead Men has become something of a cult classic over the years: A game remembered for its uncompromising characters and poor squad controls. Its sequel, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, immediately fixes many of those flaws by abandoning the squad altogether. Now it’s just Kane and Lynch, as per the title.
The [...]
First Impressions: Madden NFL 11
In: Reviews by Dave "Holy Goalie" Gardner
18 Aug 2010The old joke is that every year the new Madden NFL is just a roster update. The reality is every year they do change, modify, or add something new, no matter how small. Over the years this has added up to a lot of changes and a lot of additions, to a point where it [...]

Review: Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4
In: Reviews by Nicholas "Heartbreak Ridge" Sylvain
17 Aug 2010The folks at Traveller’s Tales have worked out a successful formula: License a popular setting; create a recipe for a the story told in a non-verbal cavalcade of exploding LEGO studs, an almost Simlish sort of “dialogue;” add in some platforming and puzzles; bake in a plethora of reasons for the players to go back [...]
