Harley Quinn’s Revenge Reviewed

harleyac2

Originally, neither Burke nor myself got around to reviewing Harley Quinn’s Revenge when it dropped during Batman: Arkham City‘s first run. While I can’t speak for Burke on this, I have a problem getting DLC for games that doesn’t change too much of the story, or alter the endings, or offer multiplayer. Having completed Batman: Arkham City [...]

Recently (thanks in large part to Gamefly.com) I’ve been playing a lot more games. While Arkham City has been out for a while, the Wii U version has only been on shelves for a limited amount of time. I can say in all honesty, the Arkham series is by far the best iteration of Batman [...]

The Thrilling Death of the Family Conclusion

Batman #17 “The Punchline” The insane “Death of the Family” series comes to an end in Batman #17. I find it difficult to call it an end though, conclusion seems more appropriate. Without spoiling anything for you, I can just say the finale is bitter sweet, and leaves a lot open for future physical and [...]


Not so Retro Review: The Amazing Spider-Man

Probably the best way to describe this newest The Amazing Spider-Man game, would be to draw comparisons to Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham X series.  Seeing as how this is basically Spider-Man’s version of the “new” super hero game, I think it’s fairly accurate. This “new” Spider-Man is pulled directly from the movie of the same name, [...]

Something has bothered me since I started reading I, Vampire, one of the many “New 52” reboots from DC Comics, I’m not sure why it’s bothering me, it just…is. Why does I,Vampire confuse me so much? Some are quick on the trigger and would say I’m stupid, and they may be right in that regard, [...]

Dredd 3D: Not Dreadful

Earlier in life, I was treated to the action buffet that was Judge Dredd, featuring Stallone and a cast of other well known actors who were given an almost “Joel Schumacher” treatment. Short of nipples on the suit, 95′s Judge Dredd was just about awful in every way. But I can still stick with it, [...]
