The Walking Dead Episode 1 Video Review

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in PC, PC Reviews, PSN, PSN Reviews, Reviews, XBLA, XBLA Reviews | 2 Comments

The Comic is great, the TV show is super successful, but does the video game version of The Walking Dead uphold the brand’s high standards? You’ll have to watch the Armless Octopus Video Review  and find out. [Special Note] The Xbox 360 version of the game has framerate issues and is VERY dark (in brightness) making it difficult to see. If you have multiple platforms at your disposal to play this game, the 360 version should be at the bottom …

Video Review: Vidiot Game

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in Reviews, XBLIG Reviews | Leave a comment

It would be near impossible to preface this review with information that would prepare you for the weirdness that is Vidiot Game. That being the case, just watch the video and see for yourself. Vidiot Game was purchased for 80 MS points ($1). You can download a free demo on the Xbox Live Marketplace. 

Fortune Summoners Video Review

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in PC, PC Reviews | Leave a comment

Fortune Summoners is one of those games that may conjure up some doubt at first glance. There are seemingly dozens of side-scrolling anime style games that ultimately disappoint in their gameplay, presentation, design…or sometimes just plain suck all around. Is Fortune Summoners another game to add to that pile, or is this a downloadable indie game truly worthy of your time and money? Guess you’ll just have to watch the video review and see. Fortune Summoners was provided for review …

To The Moon Video Review

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in PC, PC Reviews, Reviews | 3 Comments

To The Moon is an independent title that has been getting a lot of mainstream attention, but does it deserve it? Does the game really impress enough to warrant a top 10 entry? Or is this game simply a pretentious hipster’s dream that has caused widespread lunacy? Get it?! Lunacy!?… To the MOON =Lunar? HA HA HA H! …………fine! Just watch the damn video. To The Moon was provided for review by Freebird Games. You can purchase it on their …

I, Zombie Video Review: Undead Gear

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in XBLIG Reviews | Leave a comment

With hundreds of indie games trying to make a quick buck by including zombies, how can a cute little game like I, Zombie stand out against the crowd? Does it prove itself to be worth the $1 price tag or does it deserve to be filed away with the rest of the blatant zombie cash-ins? Find out with our video review of I, Zombie. Happy watching! I, Zombie was provided for review by Awesome Games Studio. It is available for …

The War of the Worlds Video Review: War Better Change

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in PSN, PSN Reviews, Reviews, XBLA, XBLA Reviews | 1 Comment

War never changes…except I guess it kind of does when it involves aliens with tentacled spaceships instead of boring old tanks and planes. Anyway, can Other Ocean Interactive’s new The War of the Worlds game capture the splendor of H.G. Wells’ classic story, or is it about as exciting as watching Tom Cruise duke it out with CG vampire-alien spaceships? (Hmm.. that sounds much better on a computer screen than the big screen) You’ll have to watch our video review to …

Platform Hack Review: Barely Hackin’ It

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in Reviews, xblig, XBLIG Reviews | 4 Comments

Platform Hack is an XBLIG title that weighs in at a paltry 80 MSP. The game features side-scrolling environments, upgrades, platforming and an RPG-like leveling system. Platform Hack seems like an absolute mess on the surface, but offers the promise of solid gamplay. Does this simple little title have what it takes to stand up to the high standards of an Armless Octopus review? Let’s find out shall we! Let’s get through the un-pleasantries first. This game is ugly… really …

Sega Bass Fishing Review: Check Out That Bass!

Posted on by Daniel Campbell in PSN, PSN Reviews, Reviews, XBLA, XBLA Reviews | 1 Comment

Listen to the audio discussion: In 1997, a lot of things happened in the game industry. Video game legend, Gunpei Yokoi, passed away in a car accident, Final Fantasy VII redefined the RPG genre, and Sega Bass Fishing was released in Japanese arcades. Shortly after the launch of the Dreamcast in 1999, the fishing simulation title found its way to Sega’s ill-fated console. Here in 2011, Sega Bass Fishing has been released once again on XBLA and PSN for $10. Sega …
