Movie Review: Extract

No Comments// Posted in Reviews by on 09.04.09.

It was okay. It wasn’t hilarious or a really good story. I probably wouldn’t even pay to watch it in theaters. But it might be a good rent in 6 months…


Movie Review: Taking Woodstock

No Comments// Posted in Reviews by on 09.01.09.

I used to hate independent movies, but lately I’ve been seeing ones that I’ve loved such as Away We Go and (500) Days of Summer. Well this movie ruined that streak, because it was awful. Okay it wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t a good movie. I wouldn’t pay to see it, not even a $1 [...]


TV Review: Avatar – The Last Airbender Series

No Comments// Posted in Reviews by on 08.25.09.

I recently completely finished the Nickelodeon cartoon Avatar: The Last Airbender in it’s entirety. It is 3 seasons long, and I watched all but the last few episodes all in a row, and recently finished the last few finally. Those who haven’t seen it are probably asking why I, a 21-year-old college student would be [...]


iPhone Review: Worms ($4.99)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 08.05.09.

Let me start off by saying that I love the Worms games on PC and DS, but they’ve always sucked on any consoles really (even the XBLA isn’t great). But I was pretty excited to hear that the Worms franchise had made its way onto the iPhone gaming platform, and was very hopeful really, especially [...]


iPhone Review: Fieldrunners ($2.99)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.20.09.

Fieldrunners has long been proclaimed as one of the best games on the iPhone, which is why I decided to check it out. The reason I haven’t downloaded it until now is that I really haven’t liked tower defense games too much; but I also haven’t tried them out enough to know for sure I [...]


iPhone Review: Monopoly ($4.99)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.17.09.

Well… it’s Monopoly…on you iPhone. Not really worth it, unless you reaaally like playing monopoly by yourself (there’s local multiplayer, but just break out the real board if you want to do that). It looks fine. It plays just like the Monopoly: Here and Now. There is nothing special about it, and it’s semi-expensive at [...]


iPhone Review: Tap Tap Revenge 2 (Free!)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.16.09.

There’s not much to say here besides that this is probably the greatest game ever created. Besides this next paragraph, I’m just gonna make a list of things that make this game awesome because that’s all it needs. Tap Tap Revolution was one of the first iPhone apps; you actually had to jail break you [...]


iPhone Review: Arcade Pool Online ($0.99)

1 Comment// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.15.09.

This game isn’t 3D, doesn’t look spectacular, and doesn’t have that many features. Why why buy this over a more expensive “better” one? Well that’s exactly why I like this pool game better than the others. Arcade Pool Online is a simple 2D pool game where you aim, pick the power, and shoot. That’s all [...]


iPhone Review: Real Racing ($9.99)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.14.09.

Real Racing is yet expensive game on the iPhone. It is a simulation racing game, so more like Forza Motosport or Gran Turismo than an arcade racer like Burnout or Need for Speed. You automatically accelerate and can break by touching the screen (or you can have the game break for you). You steer, of [...]


iPhone Review: The Sims 3 ($9.99)

No Comments// Posted in iPhone, Reviews, Video Games by on 07.13.09.

The Sims 3 for the iPhone is, as you would imagine, a slimmed down, mini version of the new game for the computer. Let me say though that I have never played a Sims game, so I am not comparing this game to any other Sims games; I am purely speaking of it as an [...]
