I know everyone has just been dying to hear my opinions on Microsoft’s press event. Instead of boring you with technical jargon and drab details, I’m going straight to my impressions of today’s two hour Xbox One reveal.

Ever since I saw the initial wave of figures and teasers, I’ve been waiting to offload my Skylanders for Pokemon Rumble U figures. In my search for more information to devour, I caught a couple trailers that I thought you Poke’Fans might be interested in. These 2 trailers cover basic gameplay, and you can see [...]

A developing story story coming from former THQ executive Jason Rubin in a recent interview with GameIndustry International, where he makes mentions of Metro: Last Light‘s developer 4A Games less than suitable working conditions.

Two hot launch trailers exploded onto the interwebs this morning, both equally exciting for two completely different reasons. Deep Silver dropped the ceremonial launch trailer for Metro: Last Light, one that has some intense vibes with it. I’ve waited a long time for Metro 2033‘s successor, so expect a review very soon! Metro: Last Light [...]

As an early backer of OUYA, if you consider 40,355 early, I got my little box in the mail this week, a good month before the general public will get theirs. Because I’m a nice guy, I thought I would unbox this beast and let you see what you’re missing. Sliding open the shoebox sized [...]

Scribblin’ with Scribblenauts Unlimited

Limitless Possibilities!

This last week, thanks in large part to my Gamefly account, I enjoyed several hours of Scribblenauts Unlimited for Nintendo’s Wii U. One of the most original titles I have played, and potentially the best use of of the Wii U gamepad thus far! The game starts with a short flash back, detailing how our young protagonist [...]

Uh oh, Aquaman looks quite conquered in the flip out cover doesn’t he? As if the Atlantean’s flooding of Gotham and Boston’s harbors and killing millions of innocent people wasn’t enough, Aquaman’s reception as he returns to his rightful throne as king of Atlantis is mixed among the Atlanteans. Living on land and abandoning your [...]
