Giving the Vita Life | Soul Sacrifice Review

The amount of exclusive games on the Playstation Vita is staggeringly low, so when a new title is announced, all eyes are on that game to be the Vita’s killer-app. Not only is Soul Sacrifice an original game coming to the Vita, it’s directed by the legendary Keiji Inafune, perhaps best known for co-creating Mega Man. With the involvement of [...]

A Kickstarter Charts New Ground | Expeditions:Conquistador Review

With its blend of spatially-focused strategy/RPG combat and big-picture team management, Expeditions: Conquistador is a little bit of XCOM, a little bit of Oregon Trail, with some choice-focused story elements thrown in for a twist. It hits several high notes from those prestigious titles, but falls a bit flat in other areas. I can also tell you from personal experience [...]

A Devilishly Good Time | State of Decay Review

Over the past few years, gamers have been graced with a number of fantastic zombie-based games. However, at the same time, we’ve been pained by some right horrors. Games like Telltale’s The Walking Dead: The Game, Valve’s Left 4 Dead series, and Capcom’s Dead Rising have brought us hours of entertainment and scores of memorable moments, whereas games such as Dead [...]

Prepare for a Showdown | Call of Juarez: Gunslinger Review

After the poor reception of Call of Juarez: The Cartel, Ubisoft had to work fast to save the franchise from certain destruction. Luckily, Ubisoft placed the franchise in the capable hands of Techland, and we are all better off for the decision. However, the game caught many by surprise, considering how poorly the previous game was received. Little did we [...]

Big Appetite, Little Stomach | Fatty Review

In a sea of limitless mobile games, countless clones arise to try and strike the same gold as their predecessors – rarely succeeding. The mobile game Fatty looks to join the ranks of the addictive runner, but it never really makes it to the level that it aspires for. If you’ve played an endless runner like Jetpack Joyride, you should be [...]

Just Dance 2014 E3 Details Announced with Gameplay Video

It’sa me… Luigi! – Luigi’s Mansion 2 Review

Nintendo has dubbed 2013 the year of Luigi, and on the evidence of Luigi’s Mansion 2 (Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon in the US), they may just have a point. The easy (and admittedly, lazy) way to sum up this sequel is to say that Luigi’s Mansion 2 is the game that the GameCube original should have been. Back in the [...]

Entertaining, Yet Forgettable | Remember Me Review

Memories are a tricky thing, as anyone who has seen Inception can tell you. Change one little thing in a person’s mind, and you can change everything they believe in. Altering the smallest detail can affect the entire world. It’s a promising premise for a game, and Remember Me revolves solely around this idea. No one will ever say that [...]
