Grand Theft Auto V

Grand Theft Auto V (PS4) Review

Rockstar wowed the majority of us a year ago when they released Grand Theft Auto V on PS3 and Xbox 360. Even on old hardware, it was an excellent looking game that still looks better than some games released on the new systems. Now that Rockstar has released the game for PS4 and Xbox One, it looks even better. For starters, there’s increased detail for … Continue reading Grand Theft Auto V (PS4) Review

Blue Estate The Game

Blue Estate Review

If you don’t know what Blue Estate is (and I didn’t), it’s a comic book by Viktor Kalvachev. This is a digital only game, based on the comic, by developers HeSaw (from what I can gather, the first game from the Paris based developing studio). It’s unlike anything currently available on PS4. That’s a good thing for this game, because it has a certain market … Continue reading Blue Estate Review

Killzone Mercenary

Killzone: Mercenary Review

Hello all, and welcome again to my glorified walk through the world of gaming, The Backlog. Today we’ll venture back to the PlayStation Vita and check out Killzone: Mercenary.

Now you may be asking “well what’s funny about that?” and the funny thing is the $15 downloadable title with almost no promotion whatsoever is easily … Continue reading Call of Juarez Gunslinger Review

Metro Last Light

Metro Last Light Review

In a post apocalyptic not too distant future a year after the events of the first game, protagonist Artyom returns to face the consequences and fallout of the events of that game and it’s a more refined but equally as intense, dark, and immersive experience as Metro 2033 ever was. For some reason there were concerns that this game was going to be “dumbed down … Continue reading Metro Last Light Review

Dead Island Riptide

Dead Island Riptide Review

Despite watching and enjoying gameplay videos, I never actually got around to the first Dead Island games. It ended up being one of those games on a long list of titles that I mean to get and play but don’t for whatever reason. Now there’s Dead Island: Riptide and it seems like its somewhere in between sequel and expansion. The game begins where the first … Continue reading Dead Island Riptide Review
