Batman: Arkham City arrives Tuesday

It’s difficult to go into Batman: Arkham City without any expectations.  I’m personally building up as much skepticism as possible for its release.  Capturing lightning in a bottle twice is a difficult task for anyone and I worry that this game will have a difficult time realizing what made its predecessor so good. Basically, I’m calling you out Batman –

Elder Scrolls, I really don’t know if I should trust you…

I have an odd relationship with Elder Scrolls.  It’s difficult to cut through the hype and distortion on any Elder Scrolls game, for good or ill. I’m still undecided on Skyrim in other words. I cling to the high ground that I should play any big titles that come my way.  As a reviewer it’s more about informing the masses

The RAGE Review is Up

Mephisto Mori/ October 11, 2011/ Video Games/ 0 comments

Winsomnia’s review of RAGE is up.  This game had me conflicted.  I had fun playing it but there was a glaring problem with the game that I could not excuse, and I’m not talking about the Driver Thing. Read the review to find out what I had to say.  Oh, and this time I added pictures.

EA released their trailer for the Syndicate remake.  I suppose I could feign excitement; I won’t.  It looks interesting but I’ve been fooled by teaser trailers before.  I must admit, however, Starbreeze Studios being listed as the developer is more interesting than the game itself.  Starbreeze is, at least, partly responsible for the Riddick shooters and I’m interested to see

Excitement and New Games

Mephisto Mori/ September 22, 2011/ Video Games/ 0 comments

I was going through prospective game releases for this winter and next year after posting my review.  Scouting titles for review, that sort of thing.  I can’t help but feel excited for several of them.  It’s a bit unlike myself. Sure, many are anticipating Batman: Arkham City, Rage, and Uncharted 3.  I might consider you crazy if, at least, one
