A few months back I wrote about my experience with Heavy Rain demo. As it turns out the retail version wasn’t much better than the demo. I spent around 4 hours playing Heavy Rain and lost interest. I was a little apprehensive about dumping any “real” money into Alan Wake, since it seemed similar to Heavy Rain: Heavy on the story and light on the gaming. So I waited until there was a price drop and got my hands on Remedy’s Alan Wake for just over $35.

Alan Wake is a bestselling author ...

EA's reboot of the Medal of Honor series created some excitement for those of us who enjoy playing military shooters. During this year's E3, EA unveiled their plans for a Beta release the week following E3 to those customers who pre-ordered Medal of Honor. I figured I'd go ahead and pre-order the game via Amazon as I could easily change my mind later on anyhow.

I will watch some reality TV shows from time to time, though. I'm always amazed at what people are willing to do in front of a camera.

So I recently downloaded 3 episodes of the PS3 exclusive ...

OK, so I've had a week or so of online play, and I have to say this game has become extremely addictive. What really stands out with this game, is the necessity for teamwork. MW2 was tons of fun, but for the most part, people don't work as a team, at least I've never felt that way. In BF:BC2, it's essential for your squad to work together if you want to be successful.

So how does DICE get people to work together and not just go out and play solo? They give tons of XP bonuses for teamwork ...
