Call of Duty 4

Posted 02-08-2008 at 02:04 PM by Cristiano (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil)
Ok, I know I am a day late and a dollar short here, but ZOMG Call of Duty 4 is just about one of the most impressive games I've ever seen. The production quality is so high, and the game is so engaging that I can't believe it. I am not normally one who likes shooters (Halo * yawn *), but the gameplay is so compelling that I was drawn into it and can't get enough of it. I hear the single player campaign is short. I'm still stuck on the first mission after the tutorial one (the excellent ship mission...

Poker Smash

Posted 02-07-2008 at 09:09 AM by Cristiano (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil)
One of the things I like most about XBOX Live is there is such a wide variety of games available for it, and unique games are being created for it. Poker Smash is one of those games. It is great to have a game that is not just a remake of a PC puzzle game, but one that takes deep advantage of XBLA and the XBOX 360.

The game is a puzzle game that mixes the basics of Poker with a fast paced unique matching experience. There are five different cards in rows moving upward that you have...

Rez HD

Posted 02-06-2008 at 09:34 PM by Cristiano (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil)
Recently, a remake of the classic Dreamcast game Rez has been added to XBOX Live. Known as Rez HD, it is one of the strangest and most incredible game experiences I've had in awhile.

Rez is a hard game to describe. In some ways, it almost seems more a work of art than a game, and now with full widescreen, gorgeous HD graphics, it has never looked better. You are flying through a computer network as an avatar, and as you get deeper, the music and graphics become more intense and layered....

Go Go Gourmet

Posted 02-06-2008 at 09:20 PM by Cristiano (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil)



For some reason, I have always enjoyed the whole genre of games that involve food preparation and serving. At their heart, they are really just matching games anyway. A type of game I generally don't enjoy, however, is known as Hidden Object games. They generally have a scene with a bunch of stuff in it that you have to find.

I was a little skeptical when I first heard about Go Go...

Big Fish Games

Posted 02-06-2008 at 05:35 PM by Cristiano (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil)
A friend pointed out this site to me a few months ago, and I don't know whether I should thank her or disown her for doing so. While there are lots of sites that have casual games, none seems to be as well integrated or have the offerings that Big Fish Games does. My particular favorite types of games fall into the "Time Management" category, and also the "Match 3" category (don't get me started on games that combine both).

Like a lot of these sites, you can try each game for free...
