Bioshock Infinite Trailer Drops
The first Bioshock game was released in 2007 with plenty of well-deserved praised. An eerie touch across the game, with enemies dropping from the ceilings, others running around or hiding, and sometimes scaring the hell out of you in the process. That year, I wasn’t too impressed with anything being released, but I remember a [...]

6. August 2010
This weekend, Indianapolis, Indiana is the place to be! GenCon got underway yesterday morning, opening the Indianapolis Expo hall doors to thousands of drooling game lovers from all across the world. Growing up in Indiana, I heard tell of this fabled event where gamers were welcomed with open arms, but somehow managed to never attend… until this year. [...]

5. August 2010
One of the holy grails of the cinematic world has always the perfection of the 3D viewing experience. In the past few years (thanks to the likes of Avatar), there has been a resurgence in 3D cinema with the development of the Digital 3D technology, and its related rendering and exhibition processes. As there is [...]

4. August 2010
I bet about half of you have played Ultimate Alliance II and the other half haven’t. I hadn’t till I picked it up a couple of weeks ago, but sure enough, half my friends had. This is Spoiler Alert and this is the article for that half that just haven’t gone down that road just [...]

29. July 2010
Gamers agree that past games based on the Transformers movie franchise aren’t worth wasting time on. Yet everyone seems hopeful that the newest installment, Transformers: War for Cybertron, will end this streak of horrific games and give fans of the characters something to love. There have been quality games released before, like the 2004 Atari [...]

29. July 2010
When I started this series, I stated that my goal was to experience as many different types of games as I possibly could in an effort to become worthy of the title “gamer”. I’ve covered quite an array of different games thus far, with many more to come. However, it seems to me that, even though the [...]

16. July 2010
Being a long time Risk player (I own the game and played many of its variants), I have to say I was hesitant to pick up this game based on the synopsis. After playing for a few hours, my opinions drastically changed and I can now say this is one game worth the $10.
Now Risk [...]
Gamer Quest: Betrayal At House on the Hill
15. July 2010
It was a dark and stormy night as the four adventurers made their way up the hill from the small parking area where they had left their cars. The storm front that had engulfed the setting sun earlier in the evening now lashed out with a bolt of lightning that illuminated the house atop the hill before them. Father Rhinehardt lead the group up [...]

9. July 2010
About two weeks ago, I was talking to one of my coworkers while I was at my day job. Just normal, mind-numbing conversation. Then he asked, “Hey, are you a gamer?” It kind of stopped me in my tracks. At first, I didn’t really know how to answer, but I mumbled out, “Yeah, I play [...]

8. July 2010
As we have mentioned a couple of times here on Battlemouth earlier this week, this past weekend was Independence Day here in the good old US of A. Most often, we here in the States enjoy a weekend full of barbecues with friends, plenty of beer drinking, and one of our most favorite pastimes: blowing shit [...]

7. July 2010
The hype in a game like Street Fighter IV really has nothing to do with what people are saying. It has to do with all the hype built up from years of an amazing franchise, and the expectations we set for ourselves from our previous experiences. What we liked, what we didn’t like, and what [...]

1. July 2010
Just the other night, I was having a discussion with my wife about my gaming habits (read discussion as “receiving a firm, but fair, reprimand concerning the amount of money I spend on little plastic and metal men.”). It got me thinking about the good old days when a board game and a few friends used to be good enough to keep [...]
