Hockey Glory’s View I think the last time I did a console “beta review” was Medal of Honor: Warfighter.  Now here’s another.  It’s called Defiance.  A third person shooter.  I don’t know much about this game aside from some youtube vids I’ve seen, but what the heck I’ll give it a try.  It sure looks [...]

This is the third installment (seriously?!?!) of the Army of Two franchise.  I didn’t realize it was so popular that it warranted another sequel. Demo comes in at a whopping 1.64 GBs. I guess gone are the days of < 1 GB downloads. In The Devil’s Cartel, you play two new Trans World Operations (T.W.O.) operatives, generically [...]

A survivor is born and a gritty new look to go with it. Can this reboot revitalize one of gaming’s most iconic heroines? The New Origins of Lara Croft At the start we see a young Lara Croft, who’s fresh out of university and her crew on an expedition to find the legendary Sun Queen. The crew warns her [...]

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the last few days, Sony took the first swing at the next gen console war with it’s official announcement of the PlayStation 4 (PS4) with some details and gameplay demos. This was still somewhat of a teaser/reveal as the console was NOT shown and there was [...]

On February 20, 2013 Sony is making a big announcement.  All signs point to Playstation 4, PS4, Orbis whatever you call it.  In prep of the announcement, Sony has released retrospective videos about their consoles Playstation 1, 2 and 3.  Oddly, no mention of PSP or Vita.  I know they aren’t consoles, but still part [...]

Who will be right, who will be wrong? Do we even  really know anything at all? What’s your gaming predictions for 2013? VeteRANTS The grizzled veterans of GamerVets [...]

“…but does it run Crysis?” Stop if you’ve heard this before. If you are a PC gamer, I am sure you are. This is the typical response about some PC build referring to the fact if that PC is powerful enough to run Crysis at the highest resolution. It’s been a known fact that the [...]

The multiplayer beta for God of War: Ascension has been released for PS+ members. I gave it a try and this is my very first game. I had some fun in this hack and slash arena style game even though I haven’t played any God of War game since the PS2 days. My biggest takeaway from the [...]

Looking back at 2012, and after launching this site, my gaming habits have changed significantly. I generally stick to certain game and don’t branch out much. However, since being involved with the GamerVets and some other gaming communities including tsilon.ca, last year, I’ve been playing more than ever. Not just the usual NHL or Call [...]

It’s the start of the New Year and this gen is winding down.  Wii U is already out and it looks like Sony and Microsoft will be showcasing their new systems soon (probably E3).  If there’s one painful thing about gaming for the average guy (like us GamerVets), it’s the transition year.  I think many [...]
