by Captain Gordon Edward (Sun 02-25-2007)

by CAPTAIN GORDON EDWARD (Sun 09-24-2006)
Some games were meant to stay simple, and the prime example of this would the Spyhunter series. Now I am a huge fan of the original game, and I am also a huge fan of the Rock. What I am not a huge fan of is this game, even though it brings two awesome thi... 'Guitar Hero 2"
by CAPTAIN GORDON EDWARD (Thu 11-23-2006)

by Captain Gordon Edward (Fri 07-28-2006)
As with most every summer, this happens to be the days of the handhelds. Perhaps there is a thought that most publishers have, where they believe that people are outside having fun, rather than inside in front of a television. This means that the home con... Countdown - August 13-19, 2006

There has been one fascination that I have kept over the years, and that is about zombies. It did not matter which movie, or which game came out, I had to be part of it some how. That being said I am a huge fan of all things zombie, even including little ... Flatout 2
by CAPTAIN GORDON EDWARD (Thu 08-31-2006)
When I first started playing Flatout 2, of course I was reminded of Flatout, but oddly enough I associated it with a completely different game. Some might think that it is similar to the Burnout series, and that is a somewhat fair comparison, though what ... Blade Dancer: Lineage Of Light

by CAPTAIN GORDON EDWARD (Sun 08-06-2006)
Quite some time ago I heard that Rockstar was developing a game for the X-Box 360, which really was no surprise. What they were developing seemed a little shocking, even more so than normally what they had been known for creating. What I had heard was tha... "F.E.A.R."
