Review: Joe Danger: Special Edition (XBLA)

Review: Joe Danger: Special Edition (XBLA)

16 December 2011

Not having owned a PlayStation 3 prior to June, there were a lot of PSN exclusives that were lost to me, much to my chagrin and disappointment. I remember when Joe Danger was first released, half a year before our PS3 came into our lives. I found myself desperately wishing that it would eventually become [...]

Review: Apples to Apples (XBLA)

16 December 2011

There’s a great knock-knock joke that I like to tell every now and then. It goes a little something…like this: “Knock-knock. Who’s there? Banana. Banana who? Knock-knock…etc.” This continues until the teller decides to change it from “Banana” to “Orange,” and the punchline changes to “Orange you glad I didn’t say banana again?” Why is [...]

Retro Review: Resident Evil 2 (PSX)

14 December 2011

Ah, I remember getting this game from Santa Claus when I was 9 years old. I remember thinking later on that he must have hated me; this game scared the heck out of me, along with my other Christmas present, Clock Tower. Later on, however, I grew to absolutely love this game. Resident Evil 2 [...]

The Amazing Spider-Man Game Details Revealed

The Amazing Spider-Man Game Details Revealed

12 December 2011

After the video game Spider-Man: Web of Shadows, Activision has kept our webslinging hero away from the open-world format. It’s easy to understand why: Open world games can be fun, but if you don’t do enough innovation between entries, it can come across as less fresh and more formulaic. However, to tie in with the next [...]

Preview: Silent Hill Downpour

09 December 2011

Say the name “Silent Hill” to a gamer, and it often conjures up images of fog-laden towns, disturbing visuals, brain-teasing puzzles, frightening twists… and occasional comedy involving aliens (gotta love those UFO endings). Unfortunately, it also brings up thoughts of recycled monsters (we get it, Pyramid Head was awesome), and plots that consistently refer back [...]

Retro Review: Frogger (PSX)

09 December 2011

The year is 1997. It’s a dark time to be a frog. The traffic is relentless and there are crocodiles and sentient lawn mowers everywhere. One wrong move and I could become a chew toy. I make my way quickly across the road, weaving in and out of traffic. I finally make it across and [...]

Review: Scene It? Movie Night (XBLA)

08 December 2011

Trivia style games have always appealed to me. As a registered member of MENSA with a genius-level IQ and a penchant for useless information, success in trivia comes naturally. As a movie lover, I have had the time and opportunity to build a strong foundation of trivial knowledge on the subject. As an individual with [...]

About Marooners’ Rock

Everyone grows up; this is how the world works. Just because we grow decrepit and old, however, does not mean we have to forsake the things that make us happy, childish though they may seem. This is the core concept of Marooners’ Rock; we geek out on the things of our past, present, and future. Society and cultural norms be damned!
