Raskulls is a hodgepodge of different gaming genres that is tied together with a charming, humorous adventure. The game takes heavy influence from many known gaming franchises such as Mario, Mr. Driller and Mario Kart. While these influences are apparent the game still hold its unique feel that is a nice mix of the gameplay types.

The main quest mode in Raskulls will only take a few hours to complete but the charm and humor of the story continuously push you into the adventure. The main story is built around three chapters of which you play as three separate characters (though they all control the same). Each chapter is made up of a dozen or-so different events. Completing events will award medals that are used to unlock new events and sections of the game. It's important to note that the game can be completed without finishing all levels. With the extra levels scattered throughout its easy to come back to the main quest mode even after you finish...

As a big fan of mixed martial arts and fighting in general I was genuinely excited to hear about Fighters Uncaged being a part of the Kinect launch line-up. Being able to virtually beat someone up just seems like a fun concept. Unfortunately, my hopes were quickly dashed after loading up Fighters Uncaged for the first time.

Fighters Uncaged has a story that is absent from the actual game. If you care to know what it is, the developer made an odd choice of laying it out in the games manual. Players cannot choose who they fight as nor can they create a fighter. Instead, you are placed in the shoes of a fighter named Simon. As Simon you can beat up 12 fighters in the games “Fight” mode. Besides a tutorial mode, the Fight mode is the sole mode of the game. In this mode you simply have a series of one-on-one fights. Depending on how you perform in the fight, the game will award you an overall score. Beating your previous high score for each character will net...

Richard is under the weather but manages to try out some Rock Band 3. Craig shells out the cash for Kinect and is pleasantly surprised at the results. Sit back and enjoy the show.

Vanquish is the fourth title from developer Platinum Games and is the latest game from Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami. Vanquish is an extremely fast-paced third-person shooter that packs solid gameplay with fantastic visuals.

In Vanquish, players will assume the role of Sam Gideon, a military researcher, who comes equipped with a super advance battle suit called the ARS (Augmented Reaction Suit). The suit provides Sam with armor, slow-motion abilities and thrust mechanics (among other things). The game takes place on the orbital space station of Providence which has been overrun by a Russian extremist group known as the Order of the Russian Star. After destroying San Francisco, the group has put New York in the cross-hairs of its high-powered artillery beam that will destroy the city. While most are under the impression that Sam has been deployed for research on the performance of the ARS, he does have ulterior motives. Sam is looking to rescue...
