NHL 14 [Face-Off]: Fight Night, Round Deus.

"I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out." - Rodney Dangerfield For years, there have been a number of advocates and detractors of fighting in the sport of hockey. The game's most idiosyncratic element was so frowned upon, that it even reached a point where fighting had to be taken out of …

MADDEN NFL 25 [Review]: Akin to running a JAG(s) Marathon.

EA Sports. "It's in the game!" Unfortunately for Madden NFL 25, everything that has been brought back in the game hasn't exactly made it better.

E3 [Day 3, Pt. 2]: Beware of Microsoft’s #1 ‘Jaeger’-Bomb!

The super-intense, futuristic FPS from Respawn Entertainment plays like a cross between Call of Duty and Guillermo del Toro's forthcoming (robots vs. aliens) blockbuster, Pacific Rim -- if you took out all the Kaiju, of course. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goe6IB1DLZU That's no surprising statement, considering that Respawn is flourishing with …
