    I don’t like the character of Thor, I just don’t. Never really liked him in comics, no matter how well the books are written. I just don’t care for the whole Norse mythology mixed in with super-heroics thing – feels so cheesy. But I remember finding the trailers for this looking pretty interesting – focusing…

    As with a lot of shows, I’m not going to get invested to quickly in this, but the first episode was pretty good – nice and piratey – and I’m certainly willing to see where it goes. It does look great, and pretty much everything looks like what you’ve experienced in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black…

    It’s good to be getting a new season of Top Gear, but I was really disappointed that the first episode didn’t kick off with a review of a new high-profile car. Looks like we’re going to be getting that in the second episode, but come on, isn’t it a tradition to start that way?

    Why am I playing this? I like Lego, I like Star Wars, and I like top-down shooters. It’s a decent play so far, and as you’d expect from a Lego game, the cut scenes are silly and fun. I certainly feel like I’m getting my buck’s worth.

    I recently picked this up during the PSN supersale (I think it was around $3) and I’m glad I did. I think it got mixed reviews when it originally came out, but so far I’m really digging the atmosphere, and the look of the game. It’s a neat idea too, that you’re only visible when…

    I haven’t read the books, but had a pretty good time watching the first firlm. For this one, I was at first a bit lost with was going on – didn’t get why they weren’t being very friendly to each other – but I slowly started getting into it again, although the ending is definitely…

    I was a backer of this, so got my copy last week, but only got around to playing it tonight. Wow, what a great game. It of course looks gorgeous – even better then I thought it would – but I’m also really digging the turn-based battles. I’ve only played about an hour and a…

    I was very much looking forward to playing this, and how great is it that it’s actually free right now if you’re a PS+ member. I first sat down with the plan to just start the game and get a feel for it, and two hours later I was still playing. I love everything about…

    This is another game I grabbed in this week’s PSN sale, and it’s definitely scratching that JRPG itch I get every once in while. I’ve only played about an hour, so it’s of course too early to tell how much I’ll like this, but so far I’m certainly enjoying the beautiful visuals – some of…

    I grabbed this on the crazy PSN sale this week (until tomorrow), and wow, this really is something special. I’m just astounded by the fantastic art direction, and how everything comes together in presenting something so original and unlike anything else out there. Yeah, it’s a platformer, but it ends up feeling like so much…
