Fracture Review

The Article has images
2008-12-02 09:51:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
I finished playing Fracture last week and while it is not a bad game it is not that great either. I had fun playing it, but a lot of that was from hunting for all the data cells in the game (kinda like looking for orbs in Crackdown). You can read my full review here , but I'd recommend renting it before you buy it to see if it is your kind of game

2008-12-02 09:16:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
...game drove me crazy. I much prefer Rock Band's simpleness. I know that is just personal preference but it still bugged me The song selection in GH:WT is lousy. Even my wife asked where all the good songs were. I probably only knew half of the songs in GH:WT and the half I did not know were not that fun to play. in Rock Band 2 the songs I did...

Happy Turkey Day

2008-11-27 07:46:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
Hope everyone is enjoying a long weekend. I'm planning on spending a lot of time with Gears of War 2, Guitar Hero: World Tour, and A Kingdom for Keflings. I'll try to get my thoughts together on GH:WT and AKFK early next week. But for anyone curious as of right now I'd recommend AKFK and not GH:WT...more on that soon

Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009 Review

2008-11-18 10:20:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
I took a departure from Wii Fit recently and tried Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009. What a pile of crap. You can read my full review here , but it boils down to this. It pretty much stinks, but it could be worse I guess

Gears of War 2

2008-11-18 10:16:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
I'm not going to do a full review of Gears of War 2 because there are plenty out there. I will say I really loved the campaign (other than a couple weak boss fights). Horde mode is tons of fun and I'm really enjoying the multiplayer. If you've not tried Gears 2 you should really at least rent it and try it out

EndWar Demo Impressions

...game, bit it actually worked really well. There were only a couple times I had to repeat myself and most likely on those I was not very clear. I was also concerned it would be hard to keep up with everything going on but it was not at all. I was pleasantly surprised by how much fun I had playing through the demo levels. I've already added it...

Mirror's Edge Demo Impressions

2008-11-03 15:32:00 by Andy in Jigsaw hc's Rants & Reviews
 
...game looks. Frankly, I'm quickly growing to love this game just from the demo. The controls are nice and smooth and the whole thing is new and unique. If you're a fan of puzzle games, first person games, and pretty much gaming in general I'd recommend trying the demo out. In addition to the main story line there are time trials for each level...

...games I downloaded the demo on my PC to check it out. World of Goo is part puzzle game and part action/arcade game. It has a play style that reminds me a little of Eets: Chowdown (which I love) where you have to solve puzzles but also you have to get your timing right Here is a video showing a little more about the game World of Goo...
