Wonderful are the moments when you simply have to stop what you are doing and just smile and awe. While playing the first of Telltale’s newest adventure series, The Wolf Among Us, I couldn’t help to be happy. I was playing yet another great game in my personal favorite genre – and it was just…
Yearly upgrades have come to be the norm for sport games since just about forever. Long gone are the days you’d buy one of them without having expectations or comparison points with previous versions. Coming in from Jaleco’s GOAL! and International Superstar Soccer, I had my doubts jumping back into soccer games with last year’s…
Ah, DuckTales. A huge part of some of the 1980s/early 1990s babies and certainly a part of mine. The videogame adaptation handled by Capcom for the NES is still considered by many one of the best platformers ever. Twenty something years later, it’s getting a high resolution remake, complete with voice acting from the original…
Naughty Boy‘s idea of fun is elusive, ethereal. It’s simple, but repetitive. The goal of the game is to destroy the objects in a variety of environments, warding off your family members who try to thwart your dastardly foray into destructive psychopathy. Enemies spawn in the form of grandma, dad, sis, bro, mom, all of these…
Grand Theft Auto 3 is undeniably one of the most influential games of the past decade. It basically started out what we have now come to call ‘open world’ games – with time, each of them becoming increasingly bigger and more ambitious than what came before. Undead Labs took that concept and married it to…

What I got was a resplendent game oozing with quirky and smart dialogue, tongue-in-cheek humor, and a nicely laid out and thematic interface. Scurvy Scallywags is structured…
Crawling through the murky tunnels of the Russian metro system never ceases to terrify. Growls and footsteps echo through the deafening silence as darkness enshrouds the area, keeping you on constant guard. Monsters lurk all over, always stalking you extensively before striking. A flashlight and lighter are your only means of illuminating the shadows, their…
Knife of Dunwall is the downloadable content for Dishonored that we’ve all been waiting for. Expanding Dishonored‘s story further, Knife of Dunwall tells the tale of Daud, the master assassin who took the Empress’ life and was part of the coupe d’état that put Corvo in jail and turned the city into further turmoil. The…
Lots of episodic content tends to fall flat once you get close to their end. They either rush it along and lose their pace, or like in most cases, you’re likely uninterested by the time the last episode is out. The same can be said about games, due to how long it takes to develop and…
