Mad Catz Cyborg R.A.T. 9 Wireless Gaming Mouse 6400Dpi Review

Looking a bit like something you might find on a star cruiser, the R.A.T. 9 wireless gaming mouse is a peripheral device that’s so packed with features that it’s difficult for some to believe.  Mad Catz is promoting this gaming mouse as an “evolution” or next step, and they’re at least partially right; a quick

NBA 2k12 Review

Sports games are judged not only on on how they rank against their competing franchises, but also how their footprints compare to those left by last year’s version.  Nothing fundamental or game-changing (besides a player lockout) happened to the game of basketball between 2011 and 2012, and NBA 2k11 was a pretty solid game with

Anno 2070 Review

Oooooooh.  Shiny.  Sorry, don’t mind me; the Anno series tends to have that effect on me.  These games sure are pretty.  And Anno 2070, taking place as it does in the not-too-distant-future, is outstandingly beautiful.  Besides having plenty of pretty sci-fi buildings to look at – the squeaky-clean, curvaceous skyscrapers of the Ecos, or the

WWE ’12 Review

Awwww yeah. That, in case you didn’t know, is the required lead-in for any review about a wrestling game this year.  Don’t trust any review that doesn’t start that way.  Awwww, hell yeah. WWE-style wrestling is about one thing, and this is equally important to understand if you’re a developer as it is if you’re

FIFA 12 Review

Although they’ve been around practically since the invention of the video game, sports games remain a unique and curious lot.  Most video games are built in some part on the thrill of escapism, of sneaking out of our own rather boring existences and being something impossible: elite soldier; space explorer; treasure hunter; mild-mannered plumber perpetually

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Review

There is a lot of contention about Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on the internet.  As is not that unusual, this slick, big-budget, flashy sequel in a well-established franchise is three things at once: a) loved by professional game reviewers, b) savaged by a vocal minority of players, and c) selling extremely well as

Battlefield 3 Review

Battlefield 3 stands out from the current crop of multiplayer FPS look-mommy-I’m-a-soldier-man by being not about you.  In most other games of this type, even games with class systems, a few good players can really unbalance a match and rocket one team to victory.  Your prowess and skill with your pretend sniper rifle, your speed
