Life is full of choices. Some are small decisions, like which DLC to buy or whether or not you should buy a Wii Motion Plus (Spoiler Alert: No). Some are huge decisions, like which wire to cut or whether or not to save that bus from going over the cliff. Either way, those choices come together to make us who we are today. Choices are so common in everyday life, that often times we make choices ... more.

Okay, since the release of the newest installment of the Call of Duty series, many people have been saying that it is too violent. Okay yeah it is but guess what everyone, WAR IS VIOLENT. It isn't even possible to create a war game without violence. Not only that, but the game comes with the rating of ADULT. You are required to have ID to purchase it. If a parent wants to purchase it for their chi... more.

*Note: This post has been updated after being made aware of some outdated information. Normally here at The Xbox Domain, profanity is something that is seldom used if it can be avoided. Unfortunately, in cases like the following that loose rule is being thrown out. Let me take you back to the fall of 2008 for those of us in the northern hemisphere. November swings around with the impending r... more.

  Co-op is all the rage these days in the videogame world. It’s assumed that everything is better when you’re doing it with other people. Unfortunately, if you think playing with other people is always peaches and cream you’d be sadly mistaken. So, I’ll make this short and sweet. People suck! What’s that, you say. What a jerk? How dare he say that. Fine, let me say it again, people... more.

  The times, they are a-changin'. These days, the kiddies scream for multiplayer. Can't get online and show how UBER 1337 you are? Then no one's interested. With the release of Resident Evil 5, we're seeing yet another example of a game that really SHOULDN'T include a form of formal multiplayer like in Gears or what-have-you, but it's getting it anyway. For the kiddies. However, if you're goin... more.

Level 19 loaded………. In my last rant I lamented the loss of Sam Fisher.  Now I know he will be back in some way, shape, or form in the semi-near future.  But what I am going to discuss today I am not sure is going to make a comeback, a comeback at least in the way I would like to see it, that is the comeback on the first-party customizable Xbox 360 Faceplate.  I guess for one thing yo... more.

  Level 17 loaded………. The Splinter Cell franchise has been a powerful addition to the Xbox stable of games since it arrived on the platform in 2002.  I remember going to the store that Christmas looking to pickup a game for myself and grabbing Splinter Cell armed only with the knowledge that the game had reviewed well. The title follows the character Sam Fisher, a secret agent emp... more.

  Level 16 loaded………. As we get closer to the official launch of the “New Xbox Experience”  most Xbox 360 gamers everywhere are eagerly awaiting their chance to get their hands on new features like Netflix viewing, copy to hard drive, and most importantly a much more efficient way to navigate content from the marketplace and/or from the local hard drive. Yet, those on the outsi... more.

  Level 15 loaded…….. The passion some have for the gaming industry is at most times fantastic to see, up until many cross the line and blankly call game dev’s lazy and what they’ve often worked on for years nothing but a .5 release. Have gamers all become elitists or is it just a simple case of being tightwads at all cost just because it’s easy to do? The nature of wish (some)g... more.

  Disclaimer: Leo Laporte diehards, I realize he’s building the Ultimate Gaming PC, so don’t even bother bringing that up.  That’s beside the point.  I don’t mean to disparage anyone, especially when the wolf pack that follows Leo Laporte would be very happy to eat me for lunch, but when it comes to the topic of video games Leo needs to not even bother. The misinformed sludge th... more.
