Serial Cleaner
Throughout the history of video games, players have left many a bloody battlefield in their wake. From military shooters to urban warfare and every other type of combat imaginable, the remnants of those epic battles as far as we know remain there in the digital world forever. One game has...
When you think about smoothly drifting a corner at full speed, caught up in the pack, and looking for that sweet spot to break away from the crowd, you probably don’t imagine the next corner will have an electric hand mixer that’s spilled strawberry icing onto the track. Nor do...
Chroma Squad
Chroma Squad is what you get when you combine Power Rangers and tactical RPGs, but lack the actual Power Rangers IP. Frankly I went in not expecting much, but have come away not only impressed but wanting more episodes and seasons to dazzle my fans with.
Nex Machina
It’s safe to say that the developers at Housemarque love making twin-stick shooters. Between Super Stardust, Alienation, and Resogun, it’s hard not see them as the top dogs in their niche, crafting and iterating upon genre masterpieces that actually get better with age. It should come as no surprise then...
If ever there was a game to test your reflexes, aim, and driving skills, all compacted into one incredibly fast experience, WipEout has always been the challenge with which to measure yourself against. With ultra-high speed cover cars on gorgeous magnetic tracks, WipEout has been a staple of the racing...
Drifting Lands
Drifting Lands is a hybrid of sidescrolling shoot-em-up action, roguelite mechanics, and ARPG looting. It’s basically everything I’ve ever wanted in a game around this very affordable price range, and I’m happy to say that Alkemi hasn’t let me down in the slightest.
The notion of taking a hit on the PC and porting it over to the consoles is not a new idea, nor will it ever be one to go out of style. When the opportunity for Victor Vran: Overkill Edition – a top-down action RPG from Haiemimont Games – came...
AereA
When you think of dungeon crawling RPG’s with clever puzzle elements, you probably imagine powerful knights clad in dark, spiky armor, wielding impossibly large weapons to tear down those who might stand in your way. You probably wouldn’t think of brightly colored and lovable characters in a world inspired entirely...
Conarium
There are many books, television shows, movies and games that have been inspired by the great father of horror, H.P. Lovecraft. There’s something about the dark, demonic and unknown otherworldly presence that has horror fans enamored with its mysterious world. While Conarium is no stranger to the fairly common theme,...
Dirt 4
Back in the days of Sony’s first PlayStation, rally games were ten-a-penny. Everybody and their dog thought that they could just sign up some big-name driver and emulate the success of Codemasters’ genre-defining Colin McRae series. Those days thankfully came and went and now just a handful of contenders are...
It’s been over 25 years since Street Fighter II first debuted and it is still arguably the best fighting game ever made (even though Mortal Kombat fans might disagree). Since it’s initial debut, it has been re-released countless times. Capcom has decided to mark their first appearance on the recently...
The Fidelio Incident is a pleasant surprise from Act 3 Games, an independent studio formed by the Art Director for God of War 3. A first-person narrative thriller, pitting you against the elements and your own unraveling mind. The pacing is tight and blistering, the graphics are stunning and the...
