Zombie Studios and Ignition Entertainment have teamed up to release Blacklight: Tango Down, a $15 FPS shooter intended for online multiplayer. This budget-priced title, available now on Xbox Live and PC (and eventually PSN), is powered by the Unreal engine and may prove to be an interesting distraction for online FPS gamers looking for some fresh IP.

Batman: Under the Red Hood
Warner Brothers Animation has a new Batman animated film coming out late this month, and it's one that you should make a point to see. I received the Blu-ray version of the film, which has the coolest box art I've seen in a long time, and was thoroughly impressed with the film and the presentation quality. This one isn't for the kids, but if you like Batman and mature themes, there's a lot to love...[Read More]

World War I In Color
World War I, the war to end all wars, or so it was thought when it began nearly a century ago this month. Generally speaking, you don't hear a lot about the war that saw Europe torn apart and some ten million casualties left in its awful wake. My own knowledge of the War was only passing, which is why I was very eager to review a new DVD set from Acorn Media. War World I In Color is not only a str...[Read More]

Crackdown 2
One of my favorites of 2007 was Crackdown from Ruffian and Microsoft. In this futuristic sandbox game, gamers got to play as one of the elite members of The Agency. As an agent, you and up to one co-op buddy had to save Pacific City from the grips of four gangs that were spread out across islands within the city. Utilizing plenty of firepower, vehicles, and super human strength and agility made al...[Read More]

Take Soldier of Fortune, Heretic, Jedi Outcast, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine, for example. These guys know action gaming and they're back this week with a brand new game and a new IP known as Singularity. I just completed the campaign and had a great time with it -- and while I wouldn't c...[Read More]
