LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 (Xbox 360):Review


Traveller's Tales introduced the gaming world to the Lego franchise with Lego Star Wars back in 2005.  They captured the look and feel of both franchises quite perfectly.  Changing/adding new features as each title was introduced to the market.  It felt like once the series left the Star Wars universe the franchise slowly started becoming stale.  Each subsequent game, Lego Batman, Indiana Jones, etc while still enjoyable to play,  relied too much on the franchises earlier offerings to continue its success.  Does Lego Harry Potter break from this cycle, and offer us something new and exciting? Kinda sorta, no.

Song of the Week: June Songs


Here's the round up of June songs from Song of the Week.  Again, I went with a theme.  Can you guess what it was?  That's right!  All the songs came from the Red Dead Redemption soundtrack.  I really enjoyed the music while I was playing this game so I thought why not honor it by giving the music a month in my Song of the Week box.

Deadman's Gun by Ashtar Command

Far Away by Jose Gonzales

Compass(Red Dead on Arrival Verison) by Jamie Lidell

(Theme From)Red Dead Redemption by Bill Elm & Woody Jackson

Alrighty, so that wraps up another month of fine fine tunes(at least I think they're fine fine).  Thanks for reading/listening  :)
