Like a good mystery novel, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter drops you in deep from the very beginning. You fill in the shoes of supernatural detective Paul Prospero, who’s apparently hot on the trail of a missing kid, the titular Ethan Carter. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter shares some of the same characteristics that highlighted…
The word “Miami” conjures many thoughts in the mind. Many will immediately think of Miami Vice, the 1980’s, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Hotline Miami and all that jazz. But before it all, there was just a small sleepy town in the Everglades. Then, in the early 1920s and has happened in our recent past,…
For as much as I talk about and praise the recent resurgence of adventure games under a more modern design philosophy, whenever there’s a release that sticks to the roots of the genre, somewhere deep in my mind, my twelve year old self smiles and rubs his hands, gingerly. As a fan of adventure games…
Well, it’s over. And it didn’t take long at all to come out. Left with a bang. I hope you’re happy. We’re once again at the finishing line for a season of The Walking Dead. And this time, for once in my personal history playing Telltale’s games, I really don’t want to go back and…
The name Spintires doesn’t offer a whole lot of confidence right off the grid. It’s extremely bland and doesn’t say anything other than the most basic thing that a road vehicle does. So when you boot up a game with this sort of name, expectations start off very low, and in most cases, you meet…
There’s no point in sugar-coating this review. Episode four of the current season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead is one hell of a ride. It’s tightly packed in a three hour blow to blow action block that not only ramps up the tension to even higher levels, after the already insane events of the previous…
Evolve is the perfect name for Turtle Rock Studios’ newest first person shooter. It works on so many levels. For one, it’s the natural evolution from the game that put them on the spotlight, Left4Dead. As a team of four cooperatively playing humans, it’s your task to defeat a continuously growing monster who happens to…
Daedalic’s lineup at E3 continued on after that look at The Devil’s Men with a return to the beautifully crafted environments of The Whispered World in Silence, a direct sequel to the 2010 hit that starred sad clown Sadwick. Silence picks up years after the events of the original, as Noah is now an older…
Who would’ve known Borderlands could ever be made into an adventure game? For one, the folks at Telltale Games. Tales from the Borderlands is their newest episodic game set in the crazy world of Pandora, that follows the events right after the end of Borderlands 2. Whether or not you were wondering what was going on…
Dragon Age: Inquisition might just be the game that brings me into the series. After giving multiple tries in the original Dragon Age: Origins, I could never really get into the game. That is certainly a little ironic, since I’m such a huge fan of the Knight of the Old Republic games, which play pretty…
