BloodRayne: Betrayal Review (Multi-platform)

I am not good at this game. Fifteen chapters and I’ve managed one C — Fs for all the others. Fourteen times it’s called me “Worm Chow”. Told me that I am old, that I am slow, that I have never possessed the peace of mind to let go of the thumbstick, to not mash the button while the animation plays and my inputs are meaningless. That my times are too slow, my combos too small, my damage taken too great....  read more

Catherine Review
(Multi-Platform)

If you haven’t been playing close attention, you’d be forgiven for thinking of Atlus’ Catherine as “that sex game,” or something like that. Pre-release marketing focused on the blond curl and apple blush, the stocking hems and saucy liquor-sips of the title character—bet you thought I’d say “titular,” right? Yeah, no. The hook for Catherine wasn’t just its lissome leading lady, but the idea that she was the avatar for a mature game. A game about a man’s sex life; a game for adults....  read more

Shadows of the Damned Review
(Multi-platform)

When it was first conceptualized in 2006, Shadows of the Damned was a horror game based around a simple idea: the physical and psychological negotiation of light and darkness. At the time, Grasshopper Manufacture head Goichi “Suda51” Suda explained the project was being modeled after the works of Kafka, with the game’s protagonist using a torch to explore a surreal castle and its surrounding village area, interacting with the strange citizens that lived there. Though it was only a year after Killer 7 had brought Grasshopper to North American shores for the first time, the proof-of-concept (such as it was)...  read more

Dirt 3 Review
(Multi-platform)

I cut my teeth with Dirt on a particularly nasty hairpin run in the series’ second installment. Having previously gotten a small taste for rally years ago with Gran Turismo 3—a game I was otherwise terrible at—I’ve been interested in that kind of racing since, but the prospect of reviewing a realistic racer (even an offroad one like Dirt 2, which just happened to fall into my lap) was an intimidating prospect....  read more
