Stranglehold - Max Payne Meets Hard Boiled

Pros Max Payne + John Woo = awesome
Cons occasionally looks cheap, some framerate issues, only 6 hours long
Recommended it? Yes

John Woo Presents Stranglehold goes into the interesting genre of video-game movies that aren't straight adaptations and is actually a nifty piece of work. Even though it only took me a paltry six hours to run through the game and it offers little replay value- it's an entertaining game and worth... Read full review »

::John Woo's gaming debut is a blast::

Pros Entertaining, jaw-dropping explosions.
Cons Short single player experience, multiplayer is a bust.
Recommended it? Yes

Now I'm not going to sit here and tell you that John Woo is a brilliant filmmaker. I think arguments can be made that he knows how to put together an entertaining action flick albeit it may be missing some serious IQ. Stranglehold came onto the scene recently for the Xbox 360 and immediately caught... Read full review »

Gears of War 3 - I expected more, but not bad

Pros new execution moves, gory, fun shooter
Cons story was disappointing, multiplayer turns into shotgun only fests a lot
Recommended it? Yes

The Gears of War series has found plenty of success on the 360, and the first two games were fun both in single player as well as multiplayer.  Unlike Call of Duty which many gamers play for multiplayer with single player basically being an afterthought.  I enjoyed the GOW series...

Pros Fitting conclusion to the main story.
Cons Doesn't do anything new, I'm stuck with Jace for most of the game...
Recommended it? Yes

If a simple glance at a calendar didn't already prove it, gamers everywhere would still know we're in the latter stages of 2011. Like every year, game publishers have once again waited until the last quarter's holiday season to bury game lovers in an avalanche of triple A titles. One of the biggest... Read full review »
