The Last of Us Review

I’ve gone back and forth trying to decide how I wanted to handle this review. The Last of Us released this past Friday, and of course, it was a hugely anticipated PS3 exclusive. Reviews from the larger Metacritic outlets went up weeks ago, and so by now people who may have been on the fence…

Remember Me Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at Remember Me, a third-person action-adventure offering from the folks at Dontnod Entertainment and Capcom. When I first heard about this game, I was intrigued, but I didn't get my expectations very high. Perhaps that worked to my advantage, but regardless, this was a quality offering and…

Lego City Undercover Review

Chase McCain returns to Lego City right after criminal mastermind and all around bad guy Rex Fury has escaped from prison. McCain is the... umm... man (?) that did most of the work to bring Fury to justice and lead to his arrest. The man that actually made that arrest was Marion Dunby, an incompetent…

DmC: Devil May Cry Review

For those familiar with the Devil May Cry series, you will know that Dante is a Demon Hunter. For those not familiar with the series, Dante is a Demon Hunter. He is seeking revenge for the murder of his mother. At least he is in this telling, I have not played the original series, so…

Tomb Raider Review

In many years I could sign off on this game as "Game Of The Year" outright. It's that good. In a year like 2013 is shaping up to be and the fact that this game came out early enough in it, the jury is still out. I can guarantee that by the end of the…

Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation Review

Today, we'll be discussing Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation, the series first venture onto the Playstation Vita. This is also our first review of a Playstation Vita game here at Web of Paine, so hopefully you enjoy this review. With the Vita being the hi-def sequel to the PSP system, AC3 Liberation is one of the…

Assassin’s Creed III Review

I've not attempted to hide the fact that Assassin's Creed has been my favorite franchise of the current generation, or that Assassin's Creed III has been my most anticipated title of the year. I had incredibly high expectations going into this game, and truth be told maybe I had that bar set a little too…

Darksiders II Review

This review is for the PC version of Darksiders II, and as such I'm going to spend the first portion of this review talking about the problems I've had with the PC version. Darksiders II was very obviously designed with a controller in mind; it's not at all keyboard and mouse friendly. I don't do…

Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood Review

At first glance, you may think Brotherhood is nothing more than an expansion pack to Assassin's Creed II, and actually that doesn't feel far off. The game does carry that vibe. Brotherhood picks up exactly where Assassin's Creed II left off, for both Desmond and Ezio, making this a direct sequel where you really need…

BloodRayne: Betrayal Review

First, let me say that I have never played a game in the BloodRayne series, and only caught about five to ten minutes of one of the movies when it came on the Sci-fy channel. It seemed like an intriguing series however, so I jumped at the chance to take a crack at this game.…
