Hey everyone! GamingAngel Amanda here! This is a complete video review for Silent Hill: Shattered Memories on the Nintendo Wii. Half-reviewed, voiced, and edited by myself and half-reviewed, recorded, and made by Mr.  Lebert of Goozex. This was definitely one of the better sequels and we’ll tell ya why.

Review: Cursed Mountain by Vespaa & Naomi

Editor’s Note: Both Vespaa and Naomi had the chance to review Cursed Mountain by Deep Silver.  Since they’re different kinds of gamers, we wanted to give you the opinion from both of them.  Below, you’ll see comments on the game from Vespaa (in black) and Naomi (in blue).  Enjoy! Rating: M (PEGI: 16) Publisher: Deep Silver Genre: Survival Horror Players: 1 Release Date: August 25th , 2009 RENT Deep Silver brings back a genre of gaming seldom seen on the Wii (as well as being exclusive) with their survival horror title, Cursed Mountain.

The holiday season is here, which means as gamers we have been flooded with a ton of great releases to play over our holiday break.

Mass Effect 2 (Jan 2010) ~ Amanda Alright, so if you haven’t played one of the most multi-faceted, single-player console RPGs ever to be deserving of a sequel, then you probably are in immediate danger of slapping yourself (because you don’t want me to do it for you, trust me). In which case, you can save yourself by grabbing your very own copy of Mass Effect just before the impossibly amazing sequel hits shelves on January 10th. As you can probably deduce, I’m biased and my gaming legacy has lead

Halloween costume recommendations from the Gaming Angels

Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of the year, and planning my costume tends to start about a year in advance! And I’m not alone as my fellow staffer Rachel enjoys it as well!  So if you’re stuck on what to be this year, or even looking to plan for next year we have put together some lists on some costumes! Rachel’s video game costume recommendations Alyx Vance (Half-Life) – Alyx was developed as a very identifiable character, and that comes across on the ease of her outfit. Grab some jeans and boots, which everyone should have. For her top, a simple grey sweatshirt with a black design on it works. Her jacket is a bit harder to find, but all you’d need is a dark brown heavy duty work jacket, accessorized with ductape on the right shoulder. Wear your hair back with a headband, throw on a necklace, and
