Reviews

Prototype

By G. Christopher Williams

The fact that power is contingent upon feeding off the bodies of those around Alex very quickly becomes achingly and ickily obvious as one of the game's major themes. [10 August 2009]

Scarface

Scarface begat Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, which in turn begat...Scarface? [27 October 2006]

The Simpsons: Hit and Run

By Bryan S. Byun

You won't find spectacularly original gameplay here, but in a game where you actually get to drive Homer's dream car, it's hard to complain. [25 February 2004]

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction

By Joey G. Alarilla

Despite the participation of comic book scribe Paul Jenkins, the story itself isn't all that memorable. [1 January 1995]
