No Achievements in Fable 2 Episode 1?

As you know, Microsoft re-released Fable II as a 5 episode downloadable series on Xbox Live. Episode 1 was given out for free. It really is more of an extended “trial” of a finished game, unlike most trials that are based on pre-release material. I never bought the full version of the game so I … Continue reading »

Review : Far Cry 2 Part 1

So I picked up Far Cry 2 last Wednesday and have had a solid 2 nights of play. (Mostly online play for now). How is it so far? It is pretty darn good. There are a few little things that bother me about the game but they are very little things. Graphics The graphics in … Continue reading »

Review : Half Life 2 Ep. 2

Here’s the last of my Half Life 2 reviews until Half Life 2 Ep.3 comes out sometime in the distant future. Half Life 2 is actually a really massive game in scope. If Valve had made Half Life 2 and Ep.1 and Ep.2 all into one game, I think it would have taken Valve quiet … Continue reading »

Review : Joust

Here is another free game I picked up from XBLA. It came along with Robotron 2084. Joust is another one of those retro ports that is pretty much exactly how the game was years ago. This time however, they have updated the graphics slightly, but gameplay is still the same. You basically fly around on … Continue reading »

Review : Robotron 2084

I got this XBLA game free as well. I recieved it for buying my Xbox360 at a certain time. I got this game along with Joust. This is bascially a port of the original Robotron : 2084 game. I don’t think there is anyhting different about it. I have only been able to make it … Continue reading »
