Tweet TNT Racers is basically a throwback to the top-down arcade racers of the 8-bit days. If you’ve ever played a kart racer, or an arcade racer from the early 90s, you’ll know what to expect. Think of RC Pro AM or Rock n’ Roll Racing for a comparison. The sad thing however is that TNT...

Tweet This week is predominately dedicated to downloadable content. Several of last year’s biggest games are getting content updates. Rise of the Rakghouls is the first content update for the new MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic. Gears of War 3 is getting its third major content update with the Fenix...

Tweet First, take the physics-based puzzles of the LittleBigPlanet series and tighten up the controls to near-perfection. Then, add in three different characters with unique properties and diverse interactions with the environment.  Next, paint the game’s world in bright, vivid colors and add one of...

Tweet Firstly, it must be admitted that we don’t live in as awesome an era as we did in the late 90s, in regards to “extreme content.” Entertainment today must be politically correct, so everything goes through the PR department now. Things were different in the late 90s. In 1998, the NFL was...

Tweet With a name as long and confounding as Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, it is hard to imagine that players would have any kind of a read on the experience that awaits them on the other side of the title screen.  Almost as if followed verbatim off a list, within the first minute of the intro cut scene...

Tweet Diablo Clone: Though many would consider this to be the mark of inferiority–showing that a game couldn’t establish itself enough to warrant its own description–others see this as a badge of honor. And who else would be more fitting to carry the Diablo torch than former members of...

Tweet Valve has never been coy about the fact that Steam is an ever-evolving ecosystem of PC Gaming.  Originally launched back in September 12th of 2003, the platform was first used to handle the launch of Valve’s premier game, Half Life 2.  Though it was a disaster at first, the software suite has...

Tweet Put simply, Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 is more of a good thing.  The original Bionic Commando Rearmed was an excellent update to a classic franchise, and this one picks right up where the previous one left off. Game: Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 Publisher: Capcom Developer: Fatshark/GRIN Genre: 2D...
