Reviewcast: Bioshock 2
Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Feb 18, 2010)
Bioshock didn’t need a sequel. Hell, I would argue that it didn’t want a sequel. But a sequel it got. Now its up to Fish, Plachy, and Aaron to justify why it’s worth your time

Do you like Devil May Cry? Do you like ridiculous plotlines? How do you feel about Heaven and Hell? Doesn’t matter, she has guns on her shoes and that is really all you need to concern yourself with.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Feb 4, 2010)
Reviewcast returns en masse (see what I did there?) with their review of Mass Effect 2. By now you have probably talked to someone who has played it and they probably raved about it. Do Fish and Plachy agree? Gosh, I wonder how you could find out…

Posted by TheJesusFish (Tue, Jan 19, 2010)
It seems like every year we are given a game with amazing design concepts and lackluster execution. Like 2008’s Alone in the Dark, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is a game greater than the sum of it’s parts, but that doesn’t stop it from being a great game.

The 2k9 sequel season goes out with a bang. With the first game winning over the hearts and minds of 4pc last year, the bar was set very high for this surprise sequel. Does it reach or, like this flavor text, does it fall victim to cliche?

Posted by TheJesusFish (Fri, Nov 27, 2009)
The first Assassin’s Creed was a polarizing game. Fish and Aaron have called it their most disappointing game of all time while Plachy loved every minute of it. How did the three of them feel about the sequel? If only there were a way to find out…

Imagine for a moment that you are in the brig of a pirate ship. Your feet are shackled to the musty floorboards and the neck restraint has redefined the word “chaffing”. Suddenly, Jesus bursts through the hull and saves you. That’s what MW2 is like.

Posted by Aaron (Mon, Nov 16, 2009)
Now that Plachy has done a bang up job of giving anyone who hasn’t played God of War yet enough reasons to go pick up God of War Collection, allow me to have a few words with those of you who have been around the block with Kratos once or twice before. If you are [...]

The following review is written from the perspective of someone who has never played the God of War games.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Mon, Nov 16, 2009)
Fish and Plachy are lost in the land of Insomniac Games’ newest Opus Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time. Their only hope of survival is winning over the heart of Chris, the crotchety series veteran, and hope he finds the kindness to lead them out.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Nov 5, 2009)
The Review Crew takes a break from grinding and loot gathering to review the game they have spent so much time playing. Based on that you would probably assume that they think you should play it too… Well, you know what they say about assumptions.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Fri, Oct 23, 2009)
Tim Schafer builds incredible worlds with incredible characters based on incredible ideas, but is Brutal Legend an incredible game? The Review Crew tags in Aaron (from Pixelosophy) to try and help them make that determination.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Oct 15, 2009)
Games like Uncharted 2 come with a certain expectation based on their pedigree. Considering the fact that 2/3rds of the Review Crew hated the first Uncharted I think it’s safe to say that pedigree, in their eyes, was crap. But is that what Uncharted 2 is?

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Oct 8, 2009)
Dead Space was the Review Crew’s game of the year last year so there were high expectations for it’s Wii followup. Does Extraction meet the hype? Is it worthy of the Dead Space name? Does it waggle well? Listen and find out!

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Oct 1, 2009)
We expected great things and said bold statements but in the end, does the game hold up? Plachy and Fish dive deep into the marrow of ODST in the hopes of finding a cure for the Bungie Design Blues.
Wrapup starts at 37:00 for those of you who just want to eat your dessert now.

Imagine a world where whatever noun you wrote in your notebook sprung to life. Imagine using those realized nouns to solve puzzles. Now imagine the most frustrating thing ever. Welcome… to Scribblenauts. *Jurassic Park Theme*

Murder, mystery, and ridiculous explanations haunt the 4pc review crew as they attempt to unravel Professor Layton’s true intentions… No, not with Luke! Jesus you have a filthy mind, you know that?

In a marathon discussion that ranges from Dallas moments to sweaty backsides, the 4PC boys break down Batman: Arkham Asylum. They even manage to beam Aaron (of Pixelosophy fame) in as a special guest. We will have to play with the antenna more next time.

I’ve killed Nazis, smuggled Nazis, sold Nazis. Perhaps here, things will be different. Oh who I am kidding — we have had more World War 2 games than we have had years of War (all of them.) Does Wolfenstein stand out?

Posted by TheJesusFish (Thu, Aug 13, 2009)
The Crew returns with a real doozy. After pouring hours into Dark Corners (Gears of War 2), Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta (both Fallout 3) they emerge ready to judge. Everything from the arguing to the new intro music can be summed up in one word: Epic.

Posted by TheJesusFish (Fri, Jul 10, 2009)
I could be cliche and say something like “The Review Crew explores Good and Evil as they review inFAMOUS, exclusively for the Playstaion Three!” but that would be a like. We all went evil because there is no such thing as a lightning wielding good guy.
Oh don’t give me that Raiden nonsense, no one was ever sure who’s side he was on.

The Reviewcast Trio get slimed (get it?) while attempting to find the “fun” in the new Ghostbusters game. Will they find it? Will they emerge unscathed? Will they successfully dodge more ham-fisted movie quotes in this byline? PROBABLY NOT. But a man can dream Johnny… A man can dream.

When we finished editing this podcast together we were unsure it was any good. It never feels like it gets to the core of what the Wolverine game is… but that may be more the game’s fault than our own. Based solely on that intro, you may be surprised how the final ratings came down. Listen now!
