It can be argued to no end what the most popular video game of all time is. The Sims, Myst, Solitaire, Mario, Pong? Think even simpler. Little blocks falling down, being rotated and forming lines that are magically removed. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Tetris wins hands down for the simple fact that everyone I know has played it, has then played it some more and will, in one form or another (and without exception) play it again at some point in their lives.

Not many people can tell you what they did last week or let alone last year, but I can tell you with great assurance that I spent most of my nights in 2001 playing Phantasy Star Online on Sega's Dreamcast. At the time, and this isn't very long ago, I was still on dial-up, hoping that the keyboard I'd ordered online would show up already and was having the time of my life. Read More.
I remember when adventure gaming simply involved rescuing my friends in Maniac Mansion or helping Guybrush Threepwood on Monkey Island (and romance Elaine Marley at the same time). Wow, how times have changed. As most of us have matured, so have our adventure games. Read More.
Devil May Cry 3 is the newest game in the DMC series from Capcom. The first game in the series is considered by many to be one of the best action games in the PS2. The second one in the series however, did not really offer the same amount of fun as the first, a somewhat average game. Read More.
What can be said about San Andreas that hasn't been said before? It's expansive, varied, vulgar, defining, addictive and able to impress even the harshest of critics. What Rockstar has been able to do with this series, time and time again, it's simply mind-boggling. Read More.
