Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

Review by LaughingMan

The most shocking part of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is that the skeletal Ghost Rider acts less like a walking corpse than Nicholas Cage playing Johnny Blaze.

The River: First Impression

Review by LaughingMan

Sorely lacking in any shred of realism that makes "lost footage" horror films compelling, ABC's new "Paranormal Activity"-inspired series "The River" runs dry.

Mass Effect 1

In anticipation to the third installment in the Mass Effect trilogy, Zimes brings us the first entry in his massive Mass Effect Series Review.

Rocksmith

Review by LaughingMan

Unlike its plastic playtoy predecessors, Rocksmith is nothing short of the most satisfying music game on the market. While it's not a party game like Guitar Hero or Rock Band, you'll leave Rocksmith with a greater sense of accomplishment and will have formed genuine skills.

Time of Eve: The Movie

Review by CineMax

Time of Eve: The Movie is definitely one of the most intellectual, thought-provoking, yet ultimately heartwarming feature-length films I've seen in quite a while. Oh, but have I mentioned it's an anime? LE GASP!

Tekken Blood Vengeance

Review by ONOE

Like Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, Tekken Blood Vengeance is a beautiful but flawed attempt to capitalize on an existing fan base. In the case of Tekken Blood Vengeance, the movie has superb visuals, but it is lacking both style and substance.

The Simon Necronomicon

Review by Kenny Farino

Lets not mince words, the Simon Necronomicon is complete ass in my opinion, but my opinion is simply not enough in explaining how bad this stinker of a book really is. With that said, I'm going to do what college students do best and provide some citations from various sources to help illustrate my points.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Review by LaughingMan : November 10, 2010

Lords of Shadow is a solid, visually stunning 3D Castlevania game that not only ’borrows’ game elements, but improves on many.

The Mark of Kri

Review by Zimes : September 27, 2009

Rau from The Mark of Kri makes Kratos and Dante look like pansies. Look, despite if you like the pansies that were mentioned above or not The Mark of Kri is a title that has aged well and that probably gave birth to most of the things you do now in Devil May Cry and is definitely a base on which all of God of War has been built on.

Gorillaz: Plastic Beach

Review by Kenny Farino : April 25, 2010

Plastic Beach is a lazy effort by a good band, the Gorillaz stumble a bit in their newest venture.

Time of Eve: The Movie

Review by CineMax : January 13, 2012

Time of Eve: The Movie is definitely one of the most intellectual, thought-provoking, yet ultimately heartwarming feature-length films I've seen in quite a while. Oh, but have I mentioned it's an anime? LE GASP!

TMNT Turtles Forever

Review by RITOS : August 11, 2010

The Ninja Turtles that I GREW UP WITH AND CHERISH are now the ass-end of a string of stupid jokes designed to make the new series look cooler than it actually is!

The Last Airbender

Review by Chuckysin : July 14, 2010

M. Night made a few mistakes: He tried to make The Last Airbender his own and failed. He tried to stay close to the source material but drifted off way too much. He spent a lot of time in explanations and telling things without saying anything at all, which is classic Shamalamadingdong so it was expected.

Silent Hill 2: Born from a Wish

Review by Zimes : June 28, 2009

Raving Rabbids 2 is a MUST have party game for the Nintendo Wii.

Dante’s Inferno

Review by Kenny Farino : February 28, 2010

While the Dante’s Inferno video game is a blast, hating God of War fanboys are a Circle of Hell all their own.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni

Review by ONOE, LaughingMan, and Kenny Farino : January 17, 2010

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni is a fantastic murder mystery and horror anime whose deceptively childish appearance is just part of the shocking terror.
