Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Online review

Just like the predecessors in the franchise, Ghost Recon Online adapts an over-the-shoulder third-person shooting perspective. Running around the map is fairly simple given its standard PC control set up. You have the ability to walk or run when you’re standing up as well as choosing to crouch or go prone. The game is...

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron review

The Autobots and Decepticons are still at each other’s throats, with their home planet, Cybertron, in a dying state.  All the Autobots want to do is leave in a cosmic Ark of sorts, while the Decepticons, vying to get their hands on some precious Energon, want to crush their foes flat.  The campaign mode will...

Sugar Cube: Bittersweet Factory review

Grids fill up the screen in each of the levels. It's up to you to guide the sugary protagonist from the start of a level to the far-off goal. Platforms, springs, and other elements are hidden within every level, and by passing by or around them, you can reveal the hidden path. In order to reach the goal, you have to...

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive console review

There aren’t more intense shooting games around than Counter Strike. With realistic damage, quick rounds, and purchasable weapons and gear, this game will get your blood pumping. Counter Strike’s main game mode doesn’t feature respawns which makes every move you make matter that much more. One bad move and your turn is...

Anna review

The story of Anna portrays a recurring nightmare, in which you always see a house in a beautiful forest, bathed in sunlight. It's not until you step inside of the house when you realize it's the polar opposite. Dark rooms with only a few lit candles, creaky floorboards, eerie paintings and a generally gloomy atmosphere...

Penny Arcade's On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness 3 review

Aside from being informative, a lot of the narrative in Rain-Slick 3 is also brilliantly comical. If you've played Cthulhu Saves the World or Breath of Death VII: The Beginning, then you're aware of just how clever the writing in Zeboyd's titles really is. Whether the characters are poking fun at each other or simply...

Sins of Solar Empire: Rebellion review

The general concept of Rebellion is that each of the three factions also have a ‘rebellion’ faction.  These rebel scum play quite similarly to their loyal or parent faction but with some major differences.  As someone who likes spreading culture in strategy and RTS games, I tend to flock towards the Advent. ...

Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition review

Dead Island takes place on the island of Banoi, which is suddenly struck with a zombie outbreak. You play as one of four characters who are stranded on the tropical deathtrap. Your character is immune to the virus, so because of that, the other survivors on the island think it's best to just send you out to do their dirty...

Razer Taipan review being ambidextrous has never been so sexy

The first thing that you will notice about the Taipan is its sleek contours, black matte finish, the two LED areas (one of them being the well-known Razer logo), and simplicity. There's not buttons everywhere. It's just a simple, good design. Then you'll want to touch it. Since it's symmetrical, you'll get the same comfortable hold with either hand....

Max Payne 3 Local Justice DLC review

While the aforementioned extras are all nice additions to the multiplayer experience in Max Payne 3, it's the new maps that really make the DLC. Local Justice includes three maps: Imperial Palace, 55th Battalion HQ, and Departure Lounge. These three areas are taken straight from the last few chapters in the game, and...

Resonance review

Even with the learning curve, the game had an interesting enough plot to follow revolving around a mystery with a touch of sci-fi flavor thrown in – it starts out with a series of explosions being frantically reported from around the globe, leaving the populace in a state of panic. The game then flashes back three months...

Astro Gaming A50 wireless headset review

Like the A40’s, the A50 headphones are built with comfort in mind.  They fit over the ears and can be adjusted with ease.  But Astro went a step further and decided to put everything in reach for the user, rather than having them fiddle with some attachment that comes plugged into it.  Stuff like the master...

Razer Naga review

Enter the Razer Naga, the self-proclaimed  "expert MMO gaming mouse". And when they say expert in the MMO department, they mean it. I'll admit, my extensive knowledge on MMO gaming mice is limited, but from a consumer/gamer and first time Razer-owner standpoint, I can tell you it did not disappoint. At first glance,...
