Witness a throwdown of small but Biblical proportions..... The Big "N" and its DS vs. the new kid on the portable gaming block with its high technology luster: the Sony PSP. How will they fair? We will duel in 6 categories -- Graphics, Control, Read More...
REVIEW: Rockstar's Table Tennis
It may be uncharacteristic to associate Rockstar with a sports game, but they have served up a great one with Table Tennis. At the moment, as an exclusive to the XBox 360, Table Tennis is a fast paced, next generation game that is incredibly addictive. Read More...
REVIEW: Tomb Raider Legend
It's been a long time since I played a Tomb Raider game -- and probably a lot longer than that since I enjoyed it. That's all changed however with the release of Tomb Raider: Legend . This Next-Generation entry into the series not only lhas more Read More...
REVIEW: Call of Duty 2
I've been gaming for a long time. There are a few names in the game industry that still give me the wam fuzzies -- but Activision is one of them. Whenever I pop a game in and their logo displays I have great hope that the game will be as good as their Read More...
World of Warcraft: A Second Look
In August I took a look at World of Warcraft and came to the conclusion it was "boar-ing" (read this review first). Well, with the recent disintegration of quality over at City of Heroes, I decided to give WoW another look. I stand by most of Read More...
REVIEW: Sid Meier's Civilization IV
In the history of gaming there have been few guarantees. Usually whenever you buy a game off the shelf (despite whatever you have read) the purchase is a bit of a crap shoot. As gamers though, we plunk down our 49.99 and hope for the best. That is not Read More...
REVIEW: Age of Empires III
While first person shooters are my first video game love, real time strategy and role playing games battle for second. Unlike FPS’s and RPG’s, which I do pretty well at, I suck at RTS games. Still, I enjoy them immensely. And my favorite RTS Read More...
REVIEW: Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
It is October 30, 1998 and you are Tony Cipriani, member of the Leone crime family led by the powerful Don Salvatore. Loyal to the Don, your goal is the family's total control of the criminal underworld. Fresh from "laying low", you are Read More...
REVIEW: Madden '06 for PSP
I've had money squirrled away for some time waiting for Madden PSP to drop into stores. This is because the fine folks at EA (unlike every other developer) scoff at our site. No matter -- I was going to buy the thing to review. Then the smell of controversy Read More...
REVIEW: ATARI Flashback 2.0
We reported the Flashback to you waaaaay back around E3 when I proclaimed it (much to the shagrin of Russ) my favorite console of E3. Well the NG finally has gotten one in their grubby little hands and I have to tell you it is a work of art. When I opened Read More...
REVIEW: Professor Fizzwizzle (No, Really.....)
Professor Fizzwizzle is far from the usual Nomad Gamer fare -- but Grubby Games has come up with an obsessive little game that combines the challenge of puzzles with the action of a 2D platformer. As Professor Fizzwizzle your goal is to return to your Read More...
REVIEW: Squad Assault: Second Wave
There once was a time before video games. Really. To pass the time geeks and nerds assembled around tables and played "bookshelf games". Many of these games were made by a company called Avalon Hill. The most famous of their line was a game Read More...
World of Warcraft -- I'm "Boared" (A Review)
I have wanted to try World of Warcraft for a while but didn't want to put out 50 bucks for it, so when I heard PC Gamer Magazine came with a World of Warcraft Demo disc this month I was all over it. I now had 14 days to play around in the world of Read More...
REVIEW: Battlefield 2
Likes: Gameplay, graphics, stability, audio, upgrades, dogfighting, It definitely is not just a prettier version of Desert Combat. It’s Battlefield and so much more. Dislikes: nitpicky beef with install, retrieve Gamespy account did not work, “tech” Read More...
REVIEW: Midnight Club 3 for PSP
After what seems like a lifetime I finally have MC3 Dub in my hands. I have been waiting for this one for quite a while, gritting my teeth as my friend dominated his copy of the game on the XBox. Yesterday at lunch I made the Best Buy drone go get the Read More...
