As I am sure many of you know, I enjoy challenging myself to complete an enjoyable (or not) game, and then to scrutinize it and review it afterwards. I'm sure you've all seen some of my work on the site here, or elsewhere, so you know pretty much what to expect by now. If you guys are curious about a certain game for any of the major consoles/handhelds/PCs mentioned in the title, then feel free to drop a comment here or send me a message with the game you are wondering about. I'll see if I already have it, or when I can purchase it by, then I'll get you the review out in roughly a week or so tops, depending on my schedule. If any of you are wondering about that hot new title, but don't really know if it's any good yet, then I can help you out with these reviews. Also, if you just want to be a troll and suggest a game that is crap, I'll still review it for you anyway. ;-)

Also, here are my reviews, posted for your enjoyment and to peruse as need be, if you want to convince yourself to be for or against this.

I've been around since 2008. And I'm old. Yay. Pretty sure I notched a fair amount of LOTD/XPs but somehow always like my underrated levels more. Go figure. My best design days are behind me, but I'll try to not be too shabby.

You should give Thomas Was Alone on Steam a go. It's a pretty enjoyable little platformer.

Mirror's Edge on the PC? Such a cool/interesting game, and definitely one more people need to see.

Ooh, ooh, also play Cave Story+. It's one of my favorite indie games of all time. No joke. It's great. Go play it.

I don't care if it's only one suggestion per person. I break the rules.

Big Rigs (for PC) is a great choice. I suggest writing 5 long paragraphs for how great the game is.

Hmm... Sure, I'll see how it compares to what I've heard...

Luckily I happen to have a lot of experience with Mirror's Edge on both the 360 and PC. This should be quite fun to get back into more seriously...

Nothing wrong with breaking the rules a few times... I just probably will save this one for last if another person asks for something who hasn't already made a request. Plus, my plate is nearly full already, so this might take awhile... Cave Story's good, so I'll give it another go.

Big Rigs, eh? I don't know about being able to write that long a review about that game, but hey... I'll do something... :p

Also, You should try sonic '06 > :D (360)

Oh, I know. I've...tried it before. Sadly. But alas, I shall delve back in for good sirs here, and for the good of the nation of OMB. ;-)

That, and it gives me a chance to totally crap all over it lol.

what happened to game reviews for Gamecube, N64, and SNES games? Heh! Atari, maybe! :D

Joking. Anyways. It's sad how all the PC games are taken. Anyways. On your own time, you probably should play a game, maybe not review it, but a game called "Chaos Legion" for PC.

I'd like you to review Tomb Raider: Legend on Xbox Live Arcade. The game is only $5 on sale til March 4th. It's a really great game! I highly recommend it. :)

BTW, did you ever do a review on MW3(2.5)? I don't intend on pressuring you to do two reviews for the same guy at once. <_<

Would you mind if I reviewed the original Xbox version? I have had it for years and love it. The graphics are about the same on each.

Also, not sure if I have reviewed it, but I do have it, so I can do so relatively without too terribly much bias I guess haha. ;-)

I'd be fine if you review TR:L it on the old Xbox. I got the game on XBLA days ago and I LOVE it.

For MW2.5, that's the definite game I want to hear your opinion on. MW3 made me so disappointed. The problem with that game is that IW didn't change anything at all with MW3. It was the EXACT same game as MW2, except with more explosions. So yeah, I want you to review that game. :)

Sure thing! I'll make it a priority then!

By the way... have I told you I love your signature? You mad bro? ;-)
