Hybrid
Anti-gravity, mini "death bots," and Dark Matter? Okay, sounds good. From 5th Cell comes an online "stop and pop" third person shooter built around fast, yet calculated gameplay and an over arching mark of global competition. This entry into Xbox LIVE's Summer of Arcade shows that strong core shooter principles can still be the centerpiece of an IP, and has enough appeal to be a great opening a...[Read More]
Street Fighter X Tekken’s DLC Characters
This is a light review of the twelve characters included in Street Fighter X Tekken’s August 1st $20 downloadable content pack. It is neither a commentary on the ethics of said content (for that, please look here) nor an overview of the balancing patch that comes with it (Shoryuken has a much better line on that). Instead, it’s a fairly casual look at the characters and content associa...[Read More]

Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor

Despite some flaws, Dragon's Dogma still offers plenty of interesting and fun content for fans of the genre, including relatively newcomers like me.
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier

From Ubisoft Paris, Ubisoft Romania, and Ubisoft Red Storm comes a re-re-envisioning of the now classic "open terrain" squad based TPS series that puts the next wave of military tech in your hands. And with rock solid mechanics, many multiplayer choices, and stunning presentation, this sorta-new direction lends itself to a very diverse a...[Read More]

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition
DISCLAIMER: Before this review begins, I would like to admit upfront that this site has never reviewed a The Witcher title prior to this one. We certainly would have reviewed the original, but never got a chance to do so. With that being said, we have no experience with the series, so this title is being reviewed with fresh eyes. Alright, with the formalities out of the way, let's talk The Witche...[Read More]
World Gone Sour
If Cool Spot never happened this would be the best commercial + game ever. Unfortunately that's not a very prestigious category.
Diabolical Pitch
Grasshopper Manufacture's Kinect game is creative, but leaves a lot to be desired.
