    Ryse: Son of Rome Review (PC)

    Quick time your way to victory.

    Ryse: Son of Rome originally debuted roughly a year ago on the Xbox One. It was hailed as a gorgeous game hampered by a near complete lack of actual gameplay.

    343 Industries Eventually Wants to Do Away with Numbered Halo Games

    In an interview with OXM, 343 Industries' General Manager Bonnie Ross, said that they would like to eventually stop numbering the Halo games.
    Why is it called Guardians?
