Borderlands 2 Krieg Out Now

Borderlands 2 Krieg Out Now

Borderlands 2 Krieg out now, and the newest DLC character is not just another meat puppet. Krieg is the second downloadable character archetype to me made available to the 2k/Gearbox hit,  the first being the Mechromancer, but his skill set and talent goes far beyond any preconceived notions. He is a burly powerhouse increasing damage and heath the more he slices n’ [...]

Gamer is a Game About Gaming

Gamer is a Game About Gaming

  The idea of having games about gaming is not that outrageous, with Game Dev Story doing well on mobile devices. But a game where the driving plot is to play games, that is something new and tantalizing. You play the role of 9-volt, your average young gamer, trying to play his games past bedtime [...]

Grand Theft Auto V Box Art

Grand Theft Auto V Box Art

  Behold, in all of its glory, thine newest GTA title now has a face to put to its name. Staying true to its roots (sense Grand Theft Auto III Liberty City), it dawns the familiar modern pop style box, but more detail to the character illustrations is noticeable.

A game that paired with a current TV series, that evolved, that would be shaped by the actions in the show, and players could shape the show by their actions in game. Well all is put to rest as Defiance the game kicked off [...]

Bastion Sequel Transistor Trailer

Bastion Sequel Transistor Trailer

Not too many game teasers give as much presence and awe as the Transistor trailer has accomplished. The color palette is cold with tears of light, the music cuts to the core, the game play leaves the seed of intrigue and the narrator a weaver of a mysterious new tale.  Really this is to be soaked in an re-watched again and again, so [...]
