Platforms: Xbox360, PS3 Release Date: 2012-03-13 Regions: USA Japan Europe Chris’s Rating: ★☆☆☆ A disappointing entry in the Silent Hill series, Downpour’s flaws stem from a few major design decisions.

Platforms: Xbox360, PS3 Release Date: 2012-01-11 Regions: USA Europe Chris’s Rating: ☆☆☆☆ An interesting idea is completely ruined by mechanical flaws and lackluster design. Amy is one of those games that sounds great on paper. Designed by Paul Cuisset, a veteran game developer famous for creating the seminal Flashback (one of my favorites), Amy is […]
Platforms: Xbox360, PS3 Release Date: 2011-01-25 Regions: USA Europe Chris’s Rating: ★★★☆ Slick as ever, Dead Space 2 is way more interesting than its predecessor.

Platforms: Xbox360, PS3, PC Release Date: 2008-10-13 Regions: USA Europe Chris’s Rating: ★★★☆ A high-end combination of Resident Evil 4 and Event Horizon that is technically excellent but ultimately unsatisfying.
