Today we shall look at a fun, but slightly flawed game, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor. Middle-Earth is an action adventure RPG romp into the universe of the Lord of the Rings. With that established and without further adieu, let’s get this show on the road. I believe that I have stated on numerous occasions that am not the most picky when it comes to graphics. There … Continue reading Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor Review
Ever since E3 2012, Watch Dogs has been one of the most hyped and anticipated titles on any system and for good reason. The now near legendary and certainly controversial video that Ubisoft showed at the E3 was a jaw dropping, gorgeous looking game that teased a slick cyberhack Grand Theft Auto variant with everything “cranked to 11.” To be fair, nothing was going to … Continue reading Watch_Dogs Review
The second of the two major Next-Gen exclusives arriving this month has arrived in the form of Infamous: Second Son. This time it is Sony’s turn to showcase what they have in store for its dedicated fan base. In Second Son you take control of Delsin Rowe who finds himself the recipient of a set of Conduit powers after a transport carrying three alleged “Bio-Terrorists” … Continue reading Infamous: Second Son Review
I am a huge fan of the Assassin’s Creed games so admittedly I approach these games with a healthy benefit of the doubt and positive bias in place. I hope I’m not an outright fanboy and I don’t think I am since I can harp on some quibbles and nitpicks I had from previous games, whether it be the KBM controls on the first one … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag Review
Hello boys and girls and welcome back to another edition of everyone’s favorite video game review, The Backlog…what? This isn’t your favorite review? Oh…well that’s embarrassing. Today we’ll be taking a look at LEGO: Marvel Super Heroes, Telltale Games latest LEGO incarnation. I’ve been meaning to get around to writing this for a week or two now, and even now I can’t seem to write … Continue reading LEGO: Marvel Super Heroes Review
This has proven a hard review to even begin. Not because I don’t have anything to say about Grand Theft Auto V, as a matter of fact I could say plenty about the game, but rather because I haven’t wanted to stop playing it. We’ve seen some truly amazing games this year: BioShock Infinite and The Last of Us standing out for most folks (myself … Continue reading Grand Theft Auto V Review
My favorite gaming genre is third person shooter set in an open world. This generation has produced many of these types of games, and a lot of them have been really great. Riding horses and mowing down outlaws in Red Dead Redemption was awesome; skydiving and blowing stuff up in Just Cause 2 was great; visiting historically accurate settings like Rome and colonial America in … Continue reading Saints Row IV Review
Chase McCain returns to Lego City right after criminal mastermind and all around bad guy Rex Fury has escaped from prison. McCain is the… umm… man (?) that did most of the work to bring Fury to justice and lead to his arrest. The man that actually made that arrest was Marion Dunby, an incompetent policeman that rode that success to the office of Chief … Continue reading Lego City Undercover Review
Today, we’ll be discussing Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation, the series first venture onto the Playstation Vita. This is also our first review of a Playstation Vita game here at Web of Paine, so hopefully you enjoy this review. With the Vita being the hi-def sequel to the PSP system, AC3 Liberation is one of the games that I was looking at to see the quality … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation Review
I’ve not attempted to hide the fact that Assassin’s Creed has been my favorite franchise of the current generation, or that Assassin’s Creed III has been my most anticipated title of the year. I had incredibly high expectations going into this game, and truth be told maybe I had that bar set a little too high. Since the game’s release, I’ve pumped into a little … Continue reading Assassin’s Creed III Review
