The gaming industry has been following a somewhat descending trend when it comes to making original games that push the envelope in terms of gameplay or story. As such, we've been flooded with sequels or titles that have been built on a tried and true recipe, which didn't really bring any new things to the ... |

The gaming industry has quite a lot of iconic franchises, but in the genre of open world sandbox action games one reigns supreme, Grand Theft Auto. Rockstar's brainchild, this series has entertained us since the first top-down view versions appeared in 1997, and, with its latest Grand Theft Auto IV, has set new ... |

Fallout 3 is the kind of game that creates stories and powers memories. I could sit down with fellow players and talk for hours about what happened in my last play session and about how their experiences were different from mine. About that time I took out a pack of Mirelurks with Plasma Mines, about that time I kill... |

I'm torn about reviewing Call of Duty: World at War, Treyarch’s latest game in the Activision published series. On the one hand, it does a lot of things very well. The action is fast and the environment is engrossing. Checkpoints are well placed, co op is well implemented, the mission intros are well direc... |

Need For Speed Undercover promised to bring back all of the things that made Electronic Arts' famous racing franchise so popular, namely the free roaming environment and the police. It was marketed by EA as the title that would erase the ugly memory of ProStreet from the minds of racers and offer them a great ga... |

Far Cry 2 was one of the most expected games this holiday season, promising to bring back the same great shooter experience as well as the fabulous graphics and highly detailed world of the first title. Ubisoft heavily marketed this game and said that it would completely change the way players looked at other shooter... |

King's Bounty: The Legend is old school while also being innovative. And it's coming from a Russian developer, so you know you can expect something a little bit weird, like CD Projekt's The Witcher or STALKER from GSC Game World. It does not disappoint those who are into tactical battles and character ... |

The horror survival game genre is a pretty interesting one, with the likes of Resident Evil or Doom becoming the benchmark that other titles need to match. That being said, it's pretty hard for a new game to bring innovation, especially in the very cliché setting of outer space, but the new horror surviva... |

This game should be a compulsory education tool for all those under the age of 20. I suggest that every teenager between 16 and 19 should be forced to play this extensively for at least one semester in order to understand what can happen once you enter your 20’s. They have to learn that keeping a lot of f... |

It's a very tough market for World War II-based shooters nowadays. The huge number of games that have their action placed in the historical conflict saturated users, who have now come to reject anything remotely based on the legendary war. That is why games like Crysis or Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare have had ... |

The trade wagon slowly moves across the plain, bringing the gift of drunkenness to the unsuspecting Indian inhabitants of Machu Pichu. At the same time, a caravel is loading up its cargo with coats and furs ready to sail to Europe to sell them for a good price, even if the taxes set by our Dutch overlords are w... |

Warhead, the sequel to the critically acclaimed first person shooter Crysis, delivers a parallel side story to the first game. Based on a very tweaked and optimized version of the CryEngine 2, it delivers the same stunning beauty from the first game without the absurdly high system requirements. It offers a pretty e... |

If you've played Day of the Tentacle, then you surely miss a good adventure game to unwind now and then. I began my adventuring career with the first Broken Sword game and the last good adventure I played is the first Syberia game. For some reason, I never got around trying to play the new adventures of Sam & Ma... |

Before going into details I must confess that Galactic Dream: Rage of War is a frustrating experience from a reviewer's point of view. It was created by a little known developer called Evolution Vault, which then got a distribution deal with Strategy First. It's a real space strategy game which promises con... |

Multiwinia is the upcoming project from Introversion, the guys that brought us the apocalyptic DEFCON and the weird Darwinia. The game is basically a multiplayer component to Darwinia as it takes the same graphical theme and the same universe to offer players a chance to take out friends or the AI in vicious, quick a... |

The Political Machine 2008 has one deep flaw: it needs to be played by someone who either has a good understanding of how Presidential elections work in the United States or by someone who is interested in learning about them. I sincerely hope that the game developed by Stardock gets into the hands of people interest... |

Whenever you get to hear that people are working on a classic point and click adventure game that will allow you to control no less than six different characters at given times to be able to proceed, you know that is a title worth waiting for. And this was exactly the reason I was eagerly anticipating Overclocked: A ... |

Crusades were bloody affairs, where the mailed knights of Europe faced off against the lightly armored fast footed Seljuks and Saracens, where great devastation was inflicted upon cities and where innumerable acts of valor spawned ballads and epics that featured at the core of the chivalric ethos for hundreds of year... |

I really, really wanted to love Europa Universalis: Rome. I've been playing Paradox grand strategy games since the time that Europa Universalis II didn't even have any worthwhile mods, trying to get Moldavia and Wallachia out of the Ottoman yoke. I've then tried my hand at building a Right wing world e... |

When a second expansion for a game is announced, it might be time to tell the developers they're pushing the limit of what's acceptable. Usually expansions mean more levels, same gameplay, more movies and less entertainment for the player. Well, that's certainly not the case with Twilight of the Arnor,... |
