Ahhh August. The summer's end looms, and tempering that disappointment, the start of another football season is eminent.

Capitalizing on the jittery excitement is Madden 09, the latest in the most storied (and most ancient) of football video game franchises.

The Not-so-Incredible Hulk

Our friends over at Gamervision.com have done a review of the Incredible Hulk game, available for seemingly every platform except the SNES.

What the designers apparently forgot to do while they were writing and re-writing all the code for every console, is design a decent game.

Sadly, our green friend doesn’t fair well in this movie-tie in game.

Go left! Ok, now keep going left…

As much as we love gaming here at HE, there are only so many hours in the day (I'm told, 24). So we've partnered with the folks at Gamervision.com to bring us the latest game reviews. This epic collaboration will allow them to do what they do best, and leave us playing with all the TVs, speakers, amps, media distribution products, and the like.

To be honest, I'm not sure who's getting the better deal there.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World

Sid Meier is one of a handful of game designers known throughout the industry for their creativity, designing talent, and ability to make truly additively fun games. His Civilization series has been a best seller and at the top of "Best Of" lists since the release of the original game in 1991.

Civilization Revolution, the latest entry in the series, was specifically designed for consoles like the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Be the Ball

If you've never played a Wii, it's completely different experience than you'd expect with a video game.

Take a game like Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 here. You use the wireless remote to swing like an actual golf club. Our friends at Gamervision.com have taken a look at the latest outing in the series.
