First of all, we really must apologize for the delay in delivering this review. It’s not much of an excuse to say we were completely swamped during the hectic release period between October and November last year, but that’s our only defense. However, it’s good to know that many people have rewarded Sega for producing [...]

We at PSXE are psychic. Really. We can read your minds. The very first question all of you are going to ask is, quite simply, “what is this game about?” Well, for about five minutes, we weren’t quite sure how to answer. We controlled this flower petal in the air, all the time asking, “okay, [...]

With this new age of downloadable updates that bring the act of game patching to the console horde, it is only fair that our reviews reflect the product at hand in its current light. NFS: Undercover launched with a problematic game engine that struggled to maintain a steady framerate, which hurt both gameplay and the [...]

I’ll be candid and blunt when I preface this review by stating that I’m growing tired of all the horror-FPS games like Condemned, Jericho, and FEAR. They all feel largely the same, and generally play out similarly. They’re also not that scary, and worst of all, the gameplay mechanics are never done well, either. I [...]

Although European PlayStation 3 owners have complained about a lack of PSN content since the launch of Sony’s new machine, they should take solace in the fact that some downloadable titles actually hit their region first. Take Astro Tripper, for example. It released on the Euro PSN in December but we North American gamers had [...]

Something unusual in the videogame world of sports, Sony’s MLB franchise is now the most lauded sports franchise around town. It’s still a surprise to see Sony’s sports efforts go from that of 989 Studios, to what it is with the MLB license. It is the Cinderella story that has blossomed into a series that [...]

Last year, survival/horror fans everywhere anxiously awaited the launch of Eden and Atari’s Alone in the Dark, as acquired preview information indicated a potentially solid and freakishly entertaining experience that would tide us over until Resident Evil 5 (or, little did we know at the time, Dead Space). Unfortunately, the game ran into serious issues: [...]

Last year, I pieced together a preview of Command and Conquer 3 when it was announced by EA back in during the Winter of 2008. As time went on, the PlayStation 3 version went missing, and EA later announced an indefinite hiatus in development for the Sony game, leaving the Xbox 360 and the PC [...]

We’ve already seen some uber-fun PSN titles, and that includes everything from the stellar quality of Wipeout HD and echochrome to the silly yet seemingly ceaseless entertainment offered by the likes of Magic Ball and Burn Zombie Burn!. We really couldn’t be happier with the full downloadable games we’ve seen over the past year – [...]
Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning: Dwarves are rubbish. Gold, beards, beer, shortness, regional accents – we’ve seen it a thousand times. Why play a dwarf when you c...
