Top 5 Characters That Should Be An Injustice DLC

By now we all know that Lobo and Batgirl will be joining the cast of Injustice: Gods Among Us as two of the four characters planned for the next DLC. Speculation about the other two has had the internet buzzing since being announced and rumors of who they may be based on disc-based coding have even been revealed. Whether there is any merit to these claims will be brought to light soon enough, but a sentiment shared by most gamers is that the chances are pretty good the ball will be dropped as...

Sometimes simple fun is the best kind of fun. A game like Mr. Runner 2: The Masks by Zing Games is the perfect example of this. The original Mr. Runner was a hit, and the sequel seeks to both capitalize and improve upon that. If you're looking to get some arcade-style gaming in quick bursts on your iPhone, Mr. Runner 2 is one of many fine choices. It's got the features, character, and zaniness to carve its own path on the iOS market. Stories in most mobile games seem to not matter...

What do you get when you mix the gameplay and brutality of Mortal Kombat with the characters and universe of DC comics? Good god no, I am not talking about that ill-fated crossover back in 2008. I speak of course about the much more anticipated and infinitely more satisfying Injustice: Gods Among Us. As a fighting game enthusiast and comic book nerd the idea of playing a proper version of what Midway’s past venture into the DC license should have been was an opportunity to not pass on....

Brace Yourself for Adventure, Dreamfall Returns At Last


Brace Yourself for Adventure, Dreamfall Returns At Last

The Longest Journey is one of the greatest adventure games to ever grace the PC. Period. This is hard to argue, even for the most dedicated of doubters and it’s important to understand why in order to fully grasp the significance of what Red Thread Games is currently up to. With the release of Dreamfall in 2006 came an unrealized promise of a continuation; until now that is. It may have been a frustrating wait but perhaps it was all for the best. It’s always wise to strike while the iron...

The Racing Sim Will Rise Again: Auto Club Revolution Beta Impressions

Auto Club Revolution is not just a browser based MMO racing game; it’s an experience. That’s what developer Eutechnyx hoped the general feeling of their massively multiplayer online racing title would inspire, and in terms of the components that comprise this title are concerned it’s a pretty spot on expectation. Social gaming can be a very fickle subject for many people; the majority of images that come to mind when hearing the term used are those friendly facebook games like Farmville...

Operation Rainfall is, or was, a campaign set up by American Anime/JRPG diehards in which they petition Nintendo to release three games into the western region. To the dismay of the hopefuls involved, Nintendo refused the demands and instead long time favored RPG publisher XSeed picked up the slack and took it upon themselves to publish each title. The targeted titles involved were Xenoblade Chronicles, The Last Story and the subject we will be discussing Pandora’s Tower. Now I wouldn’t...

A City Without Streets, An Assassin Without Memory: Remember Me Hands-On Impressions


A City Without Streets, An Assassin Without Memory: Remember Me Hands-On Impressions

Admittedly at first glance the most impressive thing about the Remember Me demo at this year’s PAX East was probably the Nilin cosplay walking around taking pictures with anxious gamers. Capcom does tend to have a history of putting together an underwhelming show floor presence; a little more promotional work and even some theatrics never hurt anyone. This is the exterior however; those who allow themselves into the heart of the booth can find hidden treasure. Lately Capcom has been putting...

In the months, weeks, days and minutes prior to Bioshock Infinite’s release, the only thing loftier than the floating city of Columbus depicted therein was the state of fan expectations for the long awaited follow up to the 2007 classic.  The original Bioshock drowned our collectively lazy expectations of what a FPS could be beneath a placid ocean surface that belied a terrifying world beneath. Arguably not since Half-Life and its sequel had gamers borne witness to so perfect a marriage of...
