Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel – Where Did All The Fun Go?

Game Backlog Update #12

Another game removed from my never-ending list.  Here are my thoughts on Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel.

I could be wrong but … “Tron Legacy” is better than “Tron”

5 Video Games That Take Me Back To My Childhood

Here’s a follow-up to my post from a couple of weeks ago.  After listing five films that take me back to my childhood, it seems only fair that I list five video games that do the same.

I’ve been playing video games ever since I was old enough to pick up a controller. I remember playing hot seat with my brother on his Atari 2600, trying to beat each other’s scores on games like Crystal Castles and Dark Chambers. Looking back now, I realise that was the start of what would become a lifelong hobby.
