In ancient times, mysterious artifacts referred to as Remnants were discovered all over the world. People used these objects for their awesome powers - a choice that eventually began to cause a rift in the world's balance. Equality was replaced by those who ruled and those who were ruled over. War was inevitable. A thousand years later is when this story begins

Rush lives with his sister Irina on secluded Eulam Island, far from the power struggles for Remnants that are occurring back on the mainland. However, this peaceful life is shattered when his sister is suddenly kidnapped by a mysterious...

Oh my, there is only one piece of advice that I am going to give you, the reader. And, that advice is... GO OUT AND GET YOU A XBOX 360!  I love my console. I mean, come on. You can play games, watch dvd movies, stay connected and play against your friends online. If you have Netflix, you can access your queued movie list and instantly watch them via your XBOX 360 console. The Netflix option is a very very very cool feature.This way you can watch the movies on your actual televison instead on your personal computer. You will impress your friends when they see the massive catalog of Netflix content...

    Built upon the new "CANVAS" engine developed internally by SEGA Game Studios Japan, Valkyria Chronicles' ground-breaking 3D graphics resemble a watercolor painting in motion. The power of the PLAYSTATION 3 system allows the development team to exploit the full potential of the new engine, giving players amazing environments to explore. A new type of tactical battle concept has also been designed for Valkyria Chronicles. Known as "BLiTZ," this battle concept gives players freedom to strategically move around the environment and attack enemies using real-time controls, something never before seen...

    I have had almost every single gaming system that has been out on the market since Nintendo first started and Nintendo Wii is one of my favorites. Of course my all time favorite will always be Super Nintendo, but Ninteno Wii is almost great for many reasons. First, not including all the games that you can play on it, you can search the web. You can be laying in bed or even laying on the couch and searching the web right at your finger tips. the BEST thing about this is that you can buy old games from old systems. d oyou have a favorite game from the first Nintendo that ever came out? The likely...

    In a way, it feels as if many fighting game characters have stepped right out of the pages of a comic book. They wear bizarre costumes, spend a lot of time punching and kicking other people, and possess inexplicable powers. Pitting fighting game characters against comic book heroes and villains has been done before, and in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, the meshing of Raiden's crew and Superman's posse makes for some pretty exciting action--especially online. But even as the game moves the series back toward the fundamental strengths of Mortal Kombat in some ways, it departs from the series' essence...

    2009

    It's obvious that each iteration of the long-running Street Fighter series has been carefully tuned and tweaked to the finest degree, and nowhere is this more apparent than in Street Fighter IV. The lessons learned in the franchise's 20-plus years have been used to prune back the core fighting experience to create something truly special. Street Fighter IV isn't a success simply because it's one of the most technically complex 2D fighters ever made, it's a success because it's also wrapped inside a layer of absolute accessibility. Never has the old "A minute to learn, a lifetime to master" adage...

    It wouldn't be Tokyo Game Show without a truckload of Dragon Ball, so we quickly headed down to the Namco Bandai booth to spend some time with one of the most anticipated upcoming Dragon Ball games, Raging Blast. Serving as the next game in the well-received Budokai Tenkaichi series (although not in terms of story progression), the title is slated to ship with a whopping 70 playable characters, which is plenty of kamehameha in anyone's language

    What's New: The TGS build playable on the show floor features eight characters to choose from, including favorites such as Piccolo, Goku, and Vegeta. Combat...

    I bought my son a PSP for his birthday thinking " I can't wait to play on this"  only to find that I just can't play without help!  It does so many things from playing movies to going online.  I am totally lost with all the technology.  I am not technically challenged, I own my own  Nintendo Ds and have used handeld systems since they came out but this one just baffles me.   Lucky for me my children are far beyond me in the game area.  When I get a chance to play this system I make sure that there is someone in the wings for when I get stuck. The games are fun, the graphics are unbelievable...

    Despite the dozens (and sometimes hundreds) of moves available per pugilist, intricate juggle combos, complex counters, and esoteric gameplay quirks that have evolved through five prequels, Tekken 6 is an altogether welcoming fighting game. For veterans, the game offers the most comprehensive roster in the history of the series, a new way to extend damaging combos, and enough change to--whilst not exactly feeling brand new--make it feel exciting to play Tekken again. For newcomers, the game's comprehensive training modes and expansive single-player beat-'em-up campaign serve as an enticing gateway... review »

    Memento Mori. That Latin phrase can be translated a few different ways, but the best version goes thusly: Remember that you are mortal. Those ancient words cross the screen during Persona 3: FES's introduction cinematic, and they set a properly mature tone for the deep and engaging role-playing that the game offers. FES is an expanded edition of last year's intense Persona 3, complete with a long new episode, dozens of new quests, and an impressive amount of other new content. However, this isn't just your standard collectors-edition fare. The extras in FES expand and deepen the core game, and...

    Late last year, Atlus completely reinvented its Persona series, a spin-off from the relatively niche Shin Megami Tensei franchise, and brought its third entry to the US after seven years of retirement. With its unconventional yet addictive blend of dungeon-crawling action and social simulation, it quickly garnered accolades from all directions. A year later, Persona has returned with a sequel that not only builds upon but greatly improves the quirky formula that made its predecessor so successful, and with its unique take on the murder mystery and its realistic characters, it proves once again...

    Wii Sports Resort is so much fun! It's a great way to have a lot of fun with family, friends or your significant other. You have to purchase the extra add on piece for your remote controls, but they are reasonably priced. One add-on comes with your purchase of the game.

    The game offers 12 different games to play--my favorites are the jet skiing, airplane, and fight games (they're not called that, but that's what they are...and I can't remember the exact names).

    I LOVE the airplane game...it's so much fun to just fly around the island and try to find "points of interest"...then you can unlock different...

    I wanted one of these so bad when they came out but waited. I am one of those people that get so gung ho about stuff and do it for a few months but then life gets hectic and things move to back burner. Like the gym membership I pay for each month but have not been in 3 months. I worried the Wii Fit would one of those things. That I would use it once and then stick it in the corner. The first time I used it, I did every single yoga pose, strength exercise, aerobics, and balance test they had. I will tell you the next morning I woke so sore. I took an easy the next day. The yoga is great. You can... review »
