Review: Fictorum (PC)
I put a spell on you, and now you're… like, really burnt to a crisp.
Fictorum may have impressed a number of people these past few months thanks to some very handy PR work on sites like Reddit and Imgur. Chances are, if you frequent those sites, namely the sections focused on gaming, you probably came across some gifs of this game. It's the one where a wizard is crafting these powerful spells in order to blast away enemies and even entire buildings. I will freely admit that the only reason... -

Valve Made a New Game. It's a Dota Card Game. Yeah, I know.
Valve finally made a new game. It's a collectible card battling game based on Dota called Artifact. Actually, it seems as though the full title is Artifact - The Dota Card Game, just in case there was any grey room remaining on it being tied to Dota. They announced it this evening during The International 7 and man that crowd reaction was priceless. There isn't anything known about this game outside of the fact that it's coming in 2018 and Valve has released a teaser for the game. Given... -

Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It features many of the games that still aren't Mega Man Legends or Mega Man Legends 2, the best damn Mega Man games in existence. Maybe Capcom is just working very hard to do a complete HD visual overhaul on those games along with finishing up development of Mega Man Legends 3 before this happens. You know, so that they can include all three in a bundle. Yeah, that must be it.

by Shawn ZipayGet that Premium Edition and play three days early!
Looks like the latest growing trend with game releases is to offer a more expensive Premium or Gold or whatever edition that grants you access to a game a few days ahead of its official release.
Starfield did it with their $99.99 (USD) Premium Edition. Today, Payday 3 is doing an "Early Access" release with their Silver and Gold editions. Diablo 4 did the same thing earlier in the year, as did Madden NFL 24,...I don't mind. If people want to spend more to play early, let them!33.33%1I'm indifferent to the whole idea.33.33%1I think it's kind of dumb that people get to play earlier. Spending more shouldn't offer a "head start" on other paying customers.33.33%1Other (describe below)0%0-
