    Square Enix Sells Out (Again): Chocobo Panic on the iPad Featured | (2)
    I’m going to come right out and say that I don’t have an iPad and that I don’t have the slightest interest in owning one.  I see no use in having one, other than to browse the internet and read books on it.  Oh, wait, Amazon already did that with the Kindle three years ago.  But I digress.  A lot of people are buying up iPads because they’re saying that it’s the next gaming console (a claim in which I wholeheartedly disagree), and big name companies are starting to develop and release titles for it as well.  The most recent ...

    Rumor Time: Team Ico Collection in Glorious HD Featured | (7)
    The interwebs are abuzz with rumors lately of something pretty awesome: Ico and Shadow of the Colossus being remastered and released in HD for the PS3, similar to how God of War 1 & 2 were just this last year.  Sony had polished the first two games in the God of War series by converting them to HD and adding trophies for each title just in time for God of War 3’s release.  Now it seems very likely that Team Ico games are going to get the same treatment in anticipation for The Last Guardian.

    Halo Reach Beta Impressions Featured | (0)
    The Halo Reach beta test launched about two weeks ago and I have had quite a bit of time to play the game.  I took notes for the rest of you that may not have had as much time or the chance to check it out yet.  Overall I am pretty happy with the updates that Bungie has made in this new version, keeping in mind that it is only in beta format.  Bungie has made quite a few new additions that they have been showing off and testing out.  This includes a new interface and the gameplay itself.  Here ...

    Gamer Dilemmas: The Paradox of Choice Featured | (8)
    Being a freedom-loving American is starting to come with a price with the continual bombardment of content, media and attractive choices.  We either have to be very precise with what we like or spend hours and hours of time dedicated to our passions.  This is the story of a gamer's dilemma, one that maybe some of you relate to and is based on a single principal that is becoming more and more prevalent to consumers, and hopefully to publishers. The Theory of the Paradox of Choice is not a new one, and if you like to read I hope you go ...

    Good Boys and Gals Get Duty Under Their Tree Featured | (1)
    I'm probably not the only MERC-fest gamer out there to realize this, but I'm likely going to ask Santa for another Call of Duty game for Christmas this year.  I don't think it’s the kids that are realizing the publishing methods of Activision, but rather the parents when they arrive at their local game store to pick up another CoD game for their aging son, who unfortunately still lives in their house, thinking, “Which ‘Duty Call’ thing did he want again?” Continue Reading...

    Final Fantasy XIII: The Long Awaited Review Featured | (14)
    If you listen to the podcast or visit the forums then you probably already know my opinion on Final Fantasy XIII.  The reason I am finally writing an "official" review is because other people (Molly) have failed to do so.  In the interest of full disclosure I will admit that I didn't finish this game.  I got 20 hours in and just couldn't take it anymore.  I really don't want to turn this into a huge flame war; I have learned that that never gets anywhere.  I am going to stick to the parts of the game that I think ...
