It's no secret that I never liked the Splinter Cell series mostly due to the way they handle stealth. That being said, I got caught up in the hype for Splinter Cell Conviction and to my surprise, actually liked it. The story this time around for Sam Fisher is that he finds himself looking for his daughter's killer in hopes to exact revenge from the bastard. He get's a lead from an old friend that tells Sam that someone has info on the killer's whereabouts and Sam should go "meet" him. After finding the man and Sam convincing him to talk by smashing his head into various objects (cause we all know a swift blow to the head makes you remember REAL fast), Sam gets tricked back into his old life by people that will not give him info about his daughter until he does a little work for them.

How far are you willing to go to save your son? No this is not Ransom and you are not Mel Gibson. Instead, you are Ethan Mars. A serial killer going by the name 'The Origami Killer' kidnapped your son and will kill him if you do not figure out the clues left behind from the killer in time. I know this is a vague description of the story but even the beginning tutorial level is so good it's not to be spoiled for people who haven't played yet.

The first Mass Effect had a wonderful story, the kind that Bioware has been known to deliver with all their games. Sadly, that was the only thing really holding it together. A lot of bugs and design mistakes made it hard for people to make it to the end (the Mako was the bane of everyone's existence). Thankfully, Bioware listened to people's gripes with Mass Effect and delivered what has to be the best game experience since Uncharted 2 and may be one of my favorite games of all time in Mass Effect 2.

Alright! We're gonna be doin' one thang and one thang only....and that's killin' Nazis. The Saboteur is mainly a 'go here and do this mission next' game in the vain of all the other GTA clones. This is one of the better ones out there but could have been better if it had more polish done to it.

We all loved and adored Call of Duty 4 when it came out 2 years ago. I know I took vacation from work just to play the new maps when they were released. That's how good it was. Solid story and excellent multiplayer helped this game stay in the top of the XBL charts for all those years.

With Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Infinity Ward tries to top themselves with a sequel to their behemoth of 2 years ago.

A new month, a new Tales of Monkey Island episode. In the third episode for this 5 part series, the story continues with Guybrush Threepwood and crew stuck inside a Manatee and must come up with a way out to continue your search for La Esponja Grande.
