So you wanna be a tester?
2008-07-04 22:56:00 For as long as I can remember I have been critical about my games. We all are right? I mean come on, how many times have you played a crappy game and thought to yourself “C’mon, I could have made a better game than this!”? We’ve all been burned by a over-hyped game that fails ...

I suck, I know.
2008-06-27 09:31:00 I know I promised a comprehensive, bi-weekly update of BSG this season, but I’ve been both really busy AND really lazy so I’ve decided to just do one big half-season wrapup and be done with it.

GH Review- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
2008-05-09 23:41:00 This is the best first person shooter on the market today. I know I’m not making any friends with the Halo crowd here but I’m sticking to my guns on this one (sorry).

Review: Bringin? Down the Sky
2008-03-28 06:01:00 A few weeks ago BioWare released the first of what will hopefully be many downloadable content packs for Mass Effect, the amazing sci-fi RPG on the 360. Awesome.

Finding A Good Web Host

But yeah, I figure that now’s as good a time as any to continue our miniseries on starting ... More About: Host , Good
Review: Halo 3

The Simpson?s Game-GH Review
2008-03-12 17:24:00 Ok so everyone knows that most movie or TV based games suck serious wind right? Right and as a rule that still holds pretty true even in today’s next-gen gaming world.

BioShock GH Review
2008-02-21 16:47:00 Oh man, where did the idea for this game come from? I mean this is one dark and creepy em-effer of a game. 2K studios really out did themselves on this one.

Paxton Galvanek: A Real Gamer Hero
2008-01-19 04:41:00 Think playing video games is little more than a great way to waste time? Then you haven’t met Paxton Galvanek. Last November, the twenty-eight year-old helped rescue two victims from an overturned SUV on the shoulder of a North Carolina interstate. As the first one on the scene, Galvanek safely removed both individuals from the smoking vehicle and properly assessed and treated their wounds, which included bruises, scrapes, head trauma and the loss of two fingers. His medical background? None - other than what he’s learned playing as a medic in the computer game America’s Army. The first-person shooter is developed and distributed by the U.S. Army. Though part of its mission is to promote its military namesake, America’s Army is a fully-featured game that takes players through a virtual representation of real-life soldiering, from basic training to the field of battle. To play as a medic class, players must sit through extensive medical training tutorials base... More About: Gamer , Real , Hero
