Hurray, hurray, back on the first day of May, the Action Flick Chick started May Mega Mayhem that day:
You might be wondering, “What’s this chick up to?” Well, folks, in the month of May I’m going to play one game a day, every day, for at least 31 minutes. To commemorate this month of MAY [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Halo 3!

Action Flick Chick | May 31, 2010

Day #31: Halo 3!

General Thoughts: This game is a blast for multiple people to play, so you can kick multiple butts at multiple time. It has a single player mode, too, but I’m not all that interested in it. In multiplayer, however, I have an absolute blast. You can use Halo 3 as a way [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Mario Kart: Double Dash!

Action Flick Chick | May 30, 2010

Day #30: Mario Kart: Double Dash!

General Thoughts: Are you and you’re friends looking for something fun and legal to do? Just pick up a controller and play Double Dash! It’s fun for everyone! It’s easy to get the hang of and includes several different modes of play. What’s great about this version as opposed to [...]

Action Flick Chick | May 29, 2010

Day #29: Burnout 3: Takedown!

General Thoughts: If you feel like being as destructive as possible, then Burnout 3 is the game for you! You can race others or you can earn money by crashing your car and doing as much damage as inhumanly possible. This is the one game where the more damage you [...]

Action Flick Chick | May 28, 2010

Day #28: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time!

General Thoughts: With the movie having just come out, I felt compelled to play the video game from which the film originated.  In Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, you play as the Prince of Persia and…. wield the sands of time. Seems pretty clear [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Alien vs. Predator!

Action Flick Chick | May 27, 2010

Day #27: Alien Vs. Predator!
General Thoughts: I’m not talking about the cool, new AVP game. I played the old school arcade game using a computer emulator. Yep, the one where you only have three buttons to push and only a couple of moves. You just run around and beat up aliens, end of though [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Bioshock 2!

Action Flick Chick | May 26, 2010

Day #26: Bioshock 2!

General Thoughts: When I watched the first cut scene, which lays the plot out for you, my first thought was “What kind of messed up crap is this?” You play as a Big Daddy, a dude in a diver’s suit who has a drill for an arm, and you have [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Shinobi!

Action Flick Chick | May 25, 2010

Day #25: Shinobi!

General Thoughts: Shinobi is a PS2 game where demons have attacked Tokyo, and you’re a ninja tasked with stopping them. You don’t get much of an explanation of the controls… or explanation of anything for that matter. It just drops you in the middle of a big pile o’ demon ninja [...]

Action Flick Chick | May 24, 2010

Day #24: Gears of War 2!
General Thoughts: MAN UP SOLDIER! It’s time to curb stomp, chainsaw, and shoot some evil lizard dudes! YEAH! In Gears of War 2, you can play co-op campaign, single-player campaign, or online with a bunch of douchebags. You play as Marcus Fenix, muscle-y soldier dude extraordinaire, and go out and [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Portal!

Action Flick Chick | May 23, 2010

Day #23: Portal!

General Thoughts: This is a very mellow game, folks. You just go through solving puzzles by using portals. No fighting, no anxiety, no nothing. Just pure exercise for the mind. The game definitely doles out the fun if you’re into puzzling action. If you don’t then this would be extremely boring for [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Pac-Man!

Action Flick Chick | May 22, 2010

Day #22: Pac-Man!

General Thoughts: This is one freakin’ old game. Starting as an arcade game, it has now moved its way into our computers and our hearts. Awww. Pac-Man is celebrating its 30th anniversary, so Google decided to embed the game on their home page, thus bringing a lot of people back down memory [...]

May Mega Mayhem: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas!

Action Flick Chick | May 21, 2010

Day #21: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas!
General Thoughts: The Grand Theft Auto series provides the original open-world game setting, where you can go anywhere and do whatever you please. Want to be a firefighter? You can do it! Want to beat an elderly woman with a golf club? Go for it! Want to get [...]

Action Flick Chick | May 20, 2010

Day #20: Prototype!
General Thoughts: You play as Alex Mercer, a shape shifting weirdo who is looking to get revenge on the people who made him into the indestructible shape shifter he is today.
