L.A. Noire Walkthrough

L.A. Noire Walkthrough

If you’ve played Mass Effect 1 & 2 and Heavy Rain, this game is another entry in what is becoming a collection of games that will one day be linked back as the foundation of the future of gaming. Mass Effect (and over similar RPGs where branching dialogue is prominent) offers the ability to choose [...]

Dead Rising 2 Walkthrough

Dead Rising 2 Walkthrough

*NOTE: I know this game was made by Blue Castle Games, in Canada, but it’s  still basically the same game as DR1. Same people worked on it too, and  Capcom made the first game.* I believe this game demonstrates the theory that Eastern game developers have already lost to the West. What is this new [...]

Halo Reach Walkthrough

Halo Reach Walkthrough

The final Halo game by Bungie is the Halo game that showed signs of great  progress coming to fruition. ODST was a step in the wrong direction, a slow, awkwardly paced, dark game that never once felt important enough to finish. Reach grabs you fast and revs up the pace in a hurry. Reach follows [...]

Crackdown 2 Walkthrough

Crackdown 2 Walkthrough

Crackdown 1 was one of the best surprises in the early years of this gen of consoles. It was one of the first games to make pure sandboxing an acceptable gaming experience. Most sandbox games took the GTA3 route of being heavily story driven and of course based mostly in the realm of reality. Crackdown [...]

Heavy Rain Walkthrough

Heavy Rain Walkthrough

Heavy Rain is a game about being a nearly completely interactive drama. You may think “why not just film a live action movie rather than make them virtual”, but there are so many different endings to see that make this game far more than just a simple play-by-numbers interactive movie (which is what people are [...]

Mass Effect 2 Walkthrough

Mass Effect 2 Walkthrough

After my brief hiatus, and an icy blizzard here in Oklahoma, I have returned to the craft and have played the thus far game of the decade! Okay, it’s not the greatest game of all time, too many quirks and awkward bits here and there to say it’s perfection. And the combat is still a [...]

GTA: Ballad of Gay Tony Walkthrough

GTA: Ballad of Gay Tony Walkthrough

I’m back. And to make a long story short, from the last true guide I made and this one, the only game I missed making a guide for was Batman; was just too late to that one. Other than Batman, it’s been a long gaming drought. Now to this game. The only complaint is that [...]

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Walkthrough

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Walkthrough

Not much to say, perfect FPS, a story that isn’t just phoned in, and just near photo realistic graphics. Really a must play by anyone with a gaming machine. The only thing worth talking about is the mission “No Russian”, which you are heavily warned by the game itself. I do think it was put [...]

World of Warcraft MEGA-FAQ

World of Warcraft MEGA-FAQ

Warcraft is a beast. You must seriously consider if you’re ready to take it on as if you were committing to banned substances. Levels, achievements,  heavy multiplayer, many different builds to tinker with, a full economy,  gear with no end, and just tons of things to collect for vanity, you really have no hope of [...]

Fallout 3 Walkthrough and SuperGuide

Fallout 3 Walkthrough and SuperGuide

I haven’t made a FAQ in quite a while, but vast fun I have had playing Fallout 3 plus the fact is has tons of quests, locations, and things to do made me decide to make a complete walkthrough of the game, from beginning to end. And to enjoy everything that you can get out [...]

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Walkthrough

F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Walkthrough

I love the FEAR games. That may sound odd because I don’t like games that  stay the same, but FEAR has always done a good job of offering a nice and  engaging story while highlighting combat. Unlike most FPS games FEAR has always let the player determine how a fight goes down. I know that [...]

Prince of Persia Walkthrough

Prince of Persia Walkthrough

  Well, I’ve played all of the last generation PoP games, and I must say this  one is both weaker and stronger. I also played Okami, and I’ve played  Assassin’s Creed. For one, the element of Okami, the beautiful graphics, are worth the play all on their own. The contrast between pure and corrupted highlights [...]

Gears of War 2 Walkthrough

Gears of War 2 Walkthrough

What we should all appreciate about Gears 2 is that the devs did not make it Gears 1 with more stuff. Instead of this game having five berserkers, 20  seeders, and a boss that was just Raam 2.0, the people at Epic said “Gears 1 was Gears 1, Gears 2 will be different.” Sure, it’s [...]

Call of Duty: World at War Walkthrough

Call of Duty: World at War Walkthrough

Eh, WWII is officially over after this game. This was a great game, good as could be for a material more overdone than the obligatory holiday romantic comedy. This is a great game worth a play at the very least, but it must be by far the best WWII game ever, maybe only challenged by [...]

Dead Space Walkthrough

Dead Space Walkthrough

Something to the effect of “Resident Evil 4 @ Dead Space” with RE4 jumped out to a quick lead and Dead Space narrowed the gap. RE4 38, Dead Space 31. Did I mention they’re playing baseball?! Okay, to be honest, this game is pretty awesome and as solid as I was hoping it would be. [...]

Madden NFL 09 Strategy Guide

Madden NFL 09 Strategy Guide

  The following is a note I would write to EA if any of the following were applicable: A) if EA listened, B) if anyone else cared, or C) if there were somewhere to send it – don’t worry, I haven’t and don’t plan to look.** Dear EA, I appreciate the effort of this year’s [...]

NCAA Football 09 FAQ & Strategy Guide

NCAA Football 09 FAQ & Strategy Guide

This is my first attempt to provide insight for a sports game. I fancy myself at being good at football games, and maybe even a smart football fan about all things football. The reason I write this guide is because I noticed my own struggles while playing the dynasty, and I hope to pass the knowledge [...]

Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots Walkthrough

Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots Walkthrough

I’m not the ultimate fan, and if I liked pixels awkward controls I would play the first two games. This game is a large part fan service, where MGS3 was  really just a game for anyone. If you haven’t even played Snake Eater, well then at least you’ll have some nice gameplay. Seriously, I don’t [...]

Sam & Max 203 : Night of the Raving Dead Review

Sam & Max 203 : Night of the Raving Dead Review

If someone ever asks you for a game that is a cross between Resident Evil and Ren and Stimpy, this is the game you would show them. The Resident Evil similarities are not only in the brain-eating ravers, but also in how the gameplay is puzzle-based. Long time followers of the series will need no [...]

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough

  I mean, if you really want to get harsh, about the only thing this game does wrong is allow money to magically appear in your hand (though if you have a  credit card that would explain that), and there is no snow. Other than that, this game does everything right. If you actually say, [...]
