These simply appear to be internal Betas and may or may not see the light of day when the Spring Update comes. There is no box art or achievements for Xbox Dashboard. A […]

Torchlight (XBLA) Review

If you’re returning or just coming into Torchlight for the first time, enjoy your stay – you’ll be here awhile. Torchlight for the Xbox Live Arcade is an in-depth, addictive, action RPG that you haven’t seen since the likes of Diablo. And for good reason, Runic Games was formed by Max Schaefer and Erich Schaefer […]

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective Review

We’ve all had it happen before, wake up not remembering who we are, why we’re here, and… Hey wait a minute, what’s a dead guy doing on the floor?  In fact, it happened to me the other night; but let’s twist this scenario a wee little bit and make that dead guy… well, you.  The […]

Where is my Mass Effect with dragons?

First amd foremost, this is not a review, just my thoughts on the demo. I finally got around to downloading the Dragon Age II demo and I think I’ll be in the minority when I say I was dissapointed.  As the title mentions I was looking for more the Mass Effect formula but what I […]

QUASI-REVIEW: Enslaved

So Enslaved, this game should have been marketed better, it’s good. It’s easily one of the most overlooked games of 2010.  The story is a re-imagining of the ancient Chinese story, “Odyssey to the West”.

Cities in Motion Review

I’ve been a fan of transport simulation games for ages. One of the first games I remember playing when I was younger was Transport Tycoon Deluxe, where you run a transportation company, shipping goods around, hauling passengers, and build your road / rail / airport infrastructure. When I heard about Cities in Motion, I got […]

Test Drive Unlimited 2 Review

There are two things about driving a Supercar that get me going: wanting to drive that amazing and expensive piece of technology, and wanting to drive that car fast on a nice scenic route— driving wherever the wind takes you. Games likes Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo don’t completely satisfy that hunger because they make […]

QUASI-REVIEW: Battlestar Galactica Online

If you know me at all, I am a huge fan of Battlestar Galactica. I was late to the party on the series and started watching (from the beginning) just as the series was nearing it’s finale. I wish I had watched the show when it was originally on, I don’t know how I missed […]

SimTower / Yoot Tower Review

First off, this is my first post on Saving Content. I’m Bill Rastello, a.k.a. WJR1985, a.k.a. bipp5. While I do play new games as much as everyone else, I tend to spend a lot of my time playing older (>5 years old) games. Because of that, there may be some odd blasts (or not-so-blasts) from […]
