Disgaea…the name brings up horror stories from my friends telling me about this series that will eat your soul and steal all your time away from you. I never believed them, thinking they were over exaggerating the extent and vast amounts of battles within the game. Up until a few weeks ago, I never played a Disgaea game. Starting with 4 was a challenge in and of itself to be honest. Weirdly seeing as this is my first Disgaea I did not have much to say about it that is bad, and I truly take this as a rarity and a sign that from an outsider this game series is great and rather accessible.

After playing the game for about a week, I can tell you one thing: Zumba Fitness is unlike any other dance/exercise game out there.

The first time I ever played Ghost Recon was when it came out for the Nintendo GameCube. That game was an absolute blast, and the controller was perfect. My love for Ghost Recon grew as I got into the Xbox versions, but it still wasn’t quite the same as the one for the GameCube. When I heard that a new Ghost Recon was coming out for the Wii, I was excited but at the same time very worried that it wouldn’t live up to my expectations.

Recently Ludia and CBS Mobile released The Amazing Race, a game based off of the popular television show of the same name, for iOS devices. We were fortunate to get our hands on the iPhone version, and as a person who has never watched an episode of the TV show, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect.

If you had a chance to watch the 2010 Video Game Awards on Spike TV this past Saturday, count yourself slightly fortunate. While the awards show itself was dreadful, there were some fantastic announcements. Obviously, the news of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim falls into that category.
