Orange Box is packed with 5 games, all for the price of one, creating the most unbeatable deal around. It has both single player and multiplayer. Its multiplayer, which is its only weak point, consists of the game Team Fortress 2, which is a class based shooter. It has a new art style, resembling that of the Incredibles. But a lack of multiplayer levels and a tremendous amount of online lag rui...

I bought the Xbox 360 Wired Controller for two reasons. One to play multiplayer games on my Xbox 360 console, and second, to hook it up to my PC and play computer games with the Xbox 360 Controller. The controller itself is very ergonomic compared to other controllers, and you won't find your hands hurting after long gaming sessions. The base of the controller also has a slot to insert a ...

I was able to get my hands on a copy of Gears of War for the xbox 360, probably the most anticipated third person shooter of all time. The first thing you see when you load up the first mission, is the most beautiful graphics of any console game ever to be released. The textures and player models are crisp, and the lighting and shadows are perfect. But graphics alone can't save this game fr...

Halo 3 is easily the best video game ever made. The single player, thought a bit on the short side, is the most epic ride you have ever experienced. The game looks great and runs smoothly. The sountrack is also top-notch and blends perfectly with the mood of the game. The story is about a super soldier named Master Chief, who must save Earth from an alien invasion. The plot is flawless and engr...

I already owned a xbox 360 guitar from my purchase of guitar hero 2, so I only bought the standalone game for $59.99. I can say with certainty that this game absolutely blows Guitar Hero 2 out of the water. The game consists of a scrolling fret board with 5 different notes that you must simultaneously press on your guitar. Higher note streaks add multipliers to your score. This song comes with ...

My Xbox 360 Premium model recently broke due to hardware failure, so I was in the market for a new Xbox 360. I took a risk by buying the more expensive model, the Elite, and I can say now that it was an extremely wise decision.

The original Fuzion Frenzy for the Xbox was a truly amazing Party game, which gave me really high expectations for the sequel. After I bought this, I couldn't believe I had wasted money on this piece of junk. Fuzion Frenzy is party mini-game video game similar to Mario Party. It boasts 40 mini games. Too bad all of them are basically the same mini game set in a different back ground. This g...

When you load up the game on your computer, you see the best graphics for a video game that you have ever seen. The environments are completely destructible and you can shoot down trees and break objects. The physics of the game are also top notch. But in order to get...

The Bourne Ultimatum is one of the greatest action movies ever made, and definitely one of the best movies of 2007. Matt Damon gives a great performance as Jason Bourne, a government trained killer who has lost his memory, and is trying to get it back. The movie wraps up a trilogy of movies based on the Bourne books by Robert Ludlum. This one is easily the best of the three as it has a flawle...

This tragedy is about an overly ambitious man named Macbeth, who stumbles upon three witches in the forest. The witches make a prophecy that Macbeth will become King of Scotland. This prophecy turns Macbeth from a noble warrior, into...

The plot never ceases to interest you, and the acting by Liam Neeson, Cillian Murphy, and especially Christian Bale is amazing.
