uDraw Studio Instant Artist Doesn’t Quite Live Up To Its Name
Contrary to what the title led me to believe I was not instantly transformed into an artist upon starting up uDraw Studio Instant Artist, the pack-in software for THQ’s new uDraw Tablet for the Xbox 360. I did, however, manage to record an entire video without drawing one penis. Okay, on my third take I…

Scrutiny on the Bounty Hunter: Eight Evil Hours in The Old Republic Changes a Man
This weekend I finally spent several uninterrupted hours in the heavy boots of one of Star Wars: The Old Republic‘s more ruthless classes: The Bounty Hunter. Did the experience change my opinion that BioWare’s upcoming MMO is more akin to a single-player game that just happens to have other people in it? Not exactly. BioWare’s…

What Do You Call a Physics Puzzler Starring an Irish Human Cannonball?
It takes a special kind of man to shoot himself out of thousands of cannons, bouncing his way through 120 puzzling levels filled with deadly obstacles. Or maybe just a really drunk guy.
