Vanquish(Xbox 360, PS3, 2010) 


“If Gears of War is a steam-powered Wild West locomotive, then Vanquish is the Japanese bullet train of mega awesome.”

Mass Effect series (Multiplatform, 2009) 


“One cannot help but love the world BioWare has crafted. I love this universe more than Star Wars’, and that’s saying something.”

Resident Evil 4 (Gamecube, 2005)


“An all-time classic. Also, who doesn’t love the random Australian sales­man who keeps showing up?”

Uncharted series (PS3, 2007) 


“The third one looks stellar. Bonus points for being one of the few games with cut scenes that I don’t want to skip!”

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand (Xbox 360, PS3, 2009) 


“I said it. You play as 50 and the G-Unit crew in the Middle East hunting for a diamond skull. What’s not to love?”
