I first played House of the Dead two in arcades many years ago and then later in my home with my Dreamcast. It was a game so bad that is was good – for brief occasional playthroughs. I was feeling in the mood for a shooter, so decided the revisit the game alongside its sequel… Read More Wii/Dreamcast Review – House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return
I recently saw the trailer for the new movie franchise based on the Rampage series. I remember renting the NES version of the game back in grade school, and enjoyed it for a little while until I got board of it. It was fun in small doses. The trailer reminded me of the franchise, so… Read More NES Review – Rampage

I recently sat down for an afternoon with the game… Read More PSX Review – Soul Blade
