Alan Wake 2 Review: A Must-Play Psychological Horror Experience
Easily, the best horror game in years.
In 2010 Remedy Entertainment released Alan Wake, a game where a writer is pulled into a horrifying world seemingly of his own creation. Alan Wake was a game that I bounced off at least two times. Despite the game being well received by critics and fans, I felt like its gameplay was just a repetitive slog that even its unique story could not overcome. When a sequel was announced by Remedy, I found myself extremely indifferent to the news. Still...

Review: Starfield
A safe, if not soulless, journey through the cosmos.
Bethesda Game Studios releases are safe. They are familiar. You know almost exactly what to expect when a major new release from them rolls around. They instill a feeling of "I know this game won't be groundbreaking, but I know I'll have fun." Yes, there are some obvious differences, but the heart of each Bethesda game is almost universally the same. The recent release of Starfield is no different. To put it bluntly: Starfield is Fall...

New Nintendo 3DS XL - Super Nintendo Entertainment System Edition Announced by Nintendo
That headline reads like a poor editing job on my part, but it is 100% correct. Nintendo announced today the "New Nintendo 3DS XL - Super Nintendo Entertainment System Edition" via Twitter. Nintendo's naming conventions are getting to be as convoluted as all of those Street Fighter II iterations or most Kingdom Hearts titles. Look, it's a New 3DS that looks like the old SNES console. There, that's so much easier to understand, isn't it? It comes out on October 13, at least in Europe.... -

Shenmue III First Teaser Trailer
Hey look, it's a teaser trailer for Shenmue III. It features some lovely environmental art and uh... I'll just say it, those character models, specifically the faces, look downright terrible. I can only assume (hope) that the models are still very much a work in progress.
The first teaser of Shenmue III is built from a small slice of an in-development build of the game, and it delivers small peeks in new look of main characters, new characters, and feels of Shenmue world.... -

Fear Effect Remake Announced
At the turn of the century, Fear Effect, was one of those games that elevated action-adventure games to new heights. The game, and its sequel, oozed style at every turn and proved that there was a market for more adult focused titles on consoles.
