  • Abstract:  Over the past couple of years, only a handful of games I would consider to be "classics" have appeared. Ninja Gaiden Black on the Xbox, Twilight Princess and Resident Evil 4 on the Wii, and even the overhyped but underappreciated PS2 gem Okami would be on...

  • Abstract:  It was a wise man who once said Be careful what you wish for. Because seemingly however great an idea appears in your head theres always a chance itll end up failing to meet your expectations upon realisation. The annoying thing is that as ideas go...

  • Guitar Hero Encore: Rock the 80’s would have been a much better installment in the franchise had it been priced as an expansion or offered more content to justify the high sticker price. Guitar Hero fanatics will still flock to the stores to purchas...

  • Abstract:  Guitar Hero 2 may have included over sixty songs, but you cant stop the rock, which is why Harmonix and Activision quickly brings us the next installment in the explosive franchise. But this isnt Guitar Hero 3 by any stretch of imagination. In fact, ...

  • Abstract:  After incredible mass-market success with Guitar Hero I and II, I didn't think anything could slow the franchise down. Since the release of GH II, Activision has botched the downloadable content on the Xbox Live with grossly overpriced song packs from ...

  • Even as a Guitar Hero addict, its hard to look at the new Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s as anything but a letdown. Yep, its always a great day when there are new official Guitar Hero songs to rock out to, but unlike Guitar Hero II, where it was o...
