I’ll be straight with you – it’s hard to review Dark Souls III fairly, because it simply isn’t like any other AAA series out there right now. We generally believe that when there are moments in a game with frustrating roadblocks, that it’s a knock on the game. Part of what makes the Dark Souls […]
Quantum Break is the biggest new IP to hit the Xbox One so far. It’s an ambitious project that tries to meld a tv show seamlessly with a videogame. You actions will have consequences and will shape the story. The game went through a rather rough development and many changes were clearly made with the […]
Yesterday, Telltale dropped Give No Shelter on us. In the second episode of the Walking Dead Michonne mini-series, Telltale continues the story of Michonne’s time during the time skip at the end of the All Out War Arc in the comics. If you’ve played Telltale games then you know what they’re about: cut-scenes, quick-time events, […]
Years ago I heard of a game called TrackMania. It was a (sort of) free-to-play racing game for the PC. I downloaded it after watching a few minutes of gameplay and what I discovered was a weird but fun racing experience. TrackMania on PC was covered in menus and leaderboards.

Shadow Complex is a Metroidvania platformer that came out in 2009. It was released by Epic Games. People loved it. This isn’t a surprise because it is a well-made game with plenty to do and Peter David wrote it. He’s one of my favorite writers, he’s written for Hulk, Star Trek, and he had this […]
Tom Clancy’s The Division is unlike any Tom Clancy game before it. It has a lot of the same themes that those games had, stuff like future military tech, political storylines and combat that feels tactical. But instead of being a more standard shooter, like the older Rainbow Six games, The Division is an open […]
Ori and the Blind Forest is a Metroidvania platformer that came out around this time last year. It was a beautiful game produced by Moon Studios that looks and feels like you are playing your way through the mind of Hayao Miyizaki. The story is all about love, forgiveness, and hope while the villain is […]
The snow is falling on the ground. Around me are large, dangerous mammoths. Somewhere nearby I hear a wolf’s howl. I tightly grip my spear and slowly crawl through some plants, being careful not to agitate the large and hairy beasts that surround me. Suddenly a roar rips through the cold air. I turn around […]
PopCap Games and EA have actually managed to pump out a really good third person shooter game that offers a plethora of crazy, zany fun. Their second iteration of the Plants vs. Zombies multiplayer “spinoff” game (if I can even really call it that) is packed with a ton of action and odd humor. Plants […]
After dabbling with the Borderlands, Game of Thrones and Minecraft franchises, Telltale Games return to their most successful franchise they worked on, The Walking Dead, but this time with a familiar character. The Walking Dead: Michonne stars the sword-wielding badass during untold times between issues 126 and 139 in the comics. While it also takes […]
