Resident Evil Revelations Review

Author: Jeff McAllister

In recent years, the Resident Evil games have been slowly descending into a festering pit of mediocrity. The once true survival-horror series has practically changed genres over the years, becoming full on action titles and doing away with any tension and suspense the series was known for. It’s not a change that anyone wanted to see and fans were hoping to someday see the series return to its hair-raising, spine-tingling, spook-fests that the original games had been so many years ago.

Resident Evil Revelations was released to high-acclaim last year on the handheld Nintendo 3DS, although the system’s layout prevented decent controls without the add-on circle pad; the game was an actual survival-horror game that brought the series, at least partially, back to its roots. Now a year later and nearly 6 months after the craptacular Resident Evil 6, Revelations is finally getting the full screen treatment with upgraded visuals for its release on the Wii U, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Review

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Review
No, there isn’t a gun that shoots honey badgers…sadly.

Author: Jeff McAllister

If you could put two parts 80′s actions films, one part neon clothing of the era, and just a dash of hair band music riffs all into a blender, mix it high for ten minutes, and pour it out in videogame form, you would end up with the incredibly absurd, and somehow comforting world of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. To put it plainly, Blood Dragon is basically a mod for one of the best games released last year and while familiar, it’s not quite like anything that has been done before.

Dead Island Riptide Review

April 25, 2013 – 2:06 am

Dead Island Riptide Review
A terrifying-ly bad game.

Author: Jeff McAllister

Dead Island was a middling game that was released in the not-so distant 2011 and followed a story of four island resort vacationers who were immune to a spreading disease that seemed to raise the other island inhabitants from the dead and turn them into aggressive and voracious monsters. Although the setting and idea was interesting; the gameplay, characters, quick deaths, and just about everything else about the game was disappointing.

With Dead Island Riptide, the new title from Techland, a company that is known for dropping bigger deuces than an elephant, it is simply more Dead Island with a new playable character. There’s nothing improved gameplay-wise, characters still look like they were carved out of wood, and the new additions to the game; like the hub-based wave battles are pointless and monotonous.

DmC: Devil May Cry Review

DmC: Devil May Cry Review
Author: Jeff McAllister

For the sake of disclosure, I’m going to begin this review by stating that I have never been a huge fan of the original Devil May Cry series. The first three titles had their moments here and there, but it was the release of Devil May Cry 4 and the fact that you had to play through the game as one character and then play it through in reverse as another, that was the proverbial nail in the coffin of me never wanting to play any future Devil May Cry games. Fast forward five years and cue Ninja Theory, the developers behind the titles Heavenly Sword and Enslaved, who have been handed the reins of Devil May Cry and with them, the entire series has received a reboot, complete with a new style, new characters, and one hell of a new experience.

Columbia: A Modern Day Icarus? BioShock Infinite Vignette

January 28, 2013 – 10:38 pm

If you’ve been following the development of Bioshock: Infinite, you may have been curious just how the floating city of Columbia came to be. In the intro for the fake history show called “Truth From Legend”, instead of focusing on the characters of Columbia, there is a brief explanation by narrator Alistar Bloom that delves into the beginnings of Columbia, along with hints as to its whereabouts after its succession from the USA. You can check out the pretty amazing, albeit brief, vignette below.

DmC: Devil May Cry Guides and Secret Mission Videos

January 28, 2013 – 6:05 pm

In case some of our visitors are not aware, not only do I manage Gamealism.com, but I am also a freelancer who does work for other sites. The majority of the work I do elsewhere is writing strategy and collectible guides over at Gamesradar.com. From time to time I will post my guides that have been published for our readers here, in case they need an extra hand in particular games.

Within the world of the oddly named DmC: Devil May Cry, there are plenty of collectibles that can be found. There are Lost Souls that hang from walls, keys that open doors to secret missions, and said doors can get a little tricky to find at times as well. Over on Gamesradar, I have put together 3 guides to help players collect all of the Lost Souls, Keys, and Doors, with the least backtracking and replaying of missions possible. I have also put together a video guide, giving players a visual on how to defeat each of the 21 Secret Missions that can be found.

● DmC: Devil May Cry Keys and secret doors locations guide
● DmC: Devil May Cry Lost souls locations guide
● DmC: Devil May Cry Secret missions guide

Cheers!
