Hey everyone!
While the reviews page is being revamped, it's almost done! In more positive news, we actually have a clear lead for the review pool for August's review. This month, it will be Mass Effect for the XBox 360!
That said, after the reviews page is fixed, there will be a few articles. And the Beyond Good & Evil review will be with them, that's a promise!
First up is my long awaited list of ten games that need a reboot, followed by another article about a game being signed. After that, will be the posting of my Metal Gear (NES) review followed by an editorial about the length of AAA games.
Hope to see you back soon!

Reader Review Poll Results
Hey guys,
Looks like I was a little late with the review poll results; Canada Day weekend can be like that.
So, it looks like Beyond Good and Evil for the XBox is the next candidate for review. You can blame the dice.
Also, I'm in the process of writing a new editorial. It's not coming along at the pace I'd like it to, so I'm thinking it'll be done in a couple of weeks. Hopefully that's an underpromise followed by over-delivery.
Take it easy, and I'll see you all soon.

Update June 1st, 2011
Hey guys,
For all those waiting with bated breath, the winner of the review poll is Doom. There was a 3-way tie, and my D4 came to the rescue to help me break it. Good thing, I had a bugger of a time tracking down my dice.
Time to clean the office again.
If you scroll down, you will also find the latest editorial, Video Games as Art. Sorry it took so long, I was trying not to come off as a pompous git. Oops, too late for that!
So, what's next month's poll going to include? You'll just have to find out. And vote. That always helps.
Until next time, and don't drop your controller on the tile. The tile will win.

Review Poll Results
Hey guys, I hope you've been having a great weekend! The review poll closed last night, and I had to resort to a coin toss between Diablo and Winback: Covert Operations. The result is...Winback is the winner.
Winback: Covert Operations was originally released for the Nintendo 64 by Koei, and would later be re-released for the PS2. The review will be based on the N64 version. It's a stealth-action game that's somewhat similar to Metal Gear Solid in that it's a 3D stealth-action game. The similarities pretty much end there. However, it was as close to a 3rd-person stealth game as one would get on the N64 other than Mission Impossible. There is also a sequel, subtitled Project Poseidon for the PS2 and XBox. Both titles are published by Koei the first was designed by Omega Force, the team behind the (in)famous Warriors franchise as well as Crimson Sea. The other was designed by Cavia, Inc. who has developed titles based off of many anime series such as Naruto, Dragonball Z and even Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex.
Omega Force is still developing Warriors games, the latest being Dynasty Warriors 7 with Dynasty Warriors Gundam 3 under way.
Cavia went under in 2010 after finishing the development of the critically panned Nier which they developed for publisher Sqaure Enix. They were absorbed into AQ.
Winback was fairly well received for both the N64 and PS2 versions by most major reviewers. The sequel was not.
