F1 Race Stars Coming in November

F1 Race Stars One of the most common game in sports would be racing. It seems like with the advancement of technology that we find new ways for people to race against each other. I guess this is why racing cars is so fascinating to people. Being able to drive in a vehicle that is designed to accelerate over a hundred miles per hour and scrap paint against other race cars, without getting into a vi...

Ubisoft Wants You to Dance in Hip Hop Dance Experience

Hip Hop Dance Experience I consider myself (hopefully like everyone else) a music fan, though I will admit that there are lots of music that I have no knowledge of to be an expert over. But I do think that music can really help improve a game experience – especially a social one where you watch your friends dance like a fool for your entertainment. Ubisoft intends to make you dance to your favorit...

Bomb the Zombies Explodes onto App Store and Google Play

Bomb the Zombies Pop quiz: What force will not die even if you shoot bullets at a swarm of it, light them on fire with gasoline or napalm, or even sick your plants at them? If you guessed zombies – then you would be wrong, as I was referring to the zombie IP! That’s right, there is another zombie game coming out with the undead looking for brains, and this time they need to be blown up with ...

Quest for the Lost Eternia Shards, Sky City DLC

Since the release of Dungeon Defenders from last year, it seems to be doing well with the massive amount of DLC being sold for it. Dungeon Defenders also has a pretty simple concept that works well with additional content for DLC: Take the simple yet fun mechanics of tower defense games, and mix that with the loot-gathering, action-RPG mechanics of a Diablo game, and you can have DLC related to Va...

RAW: Realms of Ancient War Overview Trailer Revealed

RAW: Realms of Ancient War Trailer Most action-RPG fans that are focused on loot-gathering or slaying thousands of monsters for XP are content with playing Diablo III right now. Others (like me) are looking forward to Torchlight II, the indie sequel to 2009’s massive hit that nails the Diablo-like experience. However, while these games are awesome, they are exclusive only to the PC – so cons...

Edna & Harvey : The Breakout coming to iPad

Edna & Harvey : The Breakout Point and click adventure games seem to be coming back in the indie and digital market. Telltale’s The Walking Dead series is doing well for a game based upon what was thought a “dead” genre in gaming. To be fair, the point and click adventure games were still made – just not as good as some classics like the Monkey Island series (or hard to compr...

Don't Save The World : An RPG launches

Don’t Save The World Stories in video games seem to be a hit or miss with most gamers. Sure there are some fascinating stories such as the Legacy of Kain series or Second Sight, but then you got games with mediocre or lame stories like Painkiller or Darksiders – still good games, but only good for their gameplay. Interactive storytelling is very hard to do, as most JRPGs seem to illustrate. ...

Super Touchdown released to Android Tablets and Phones

Super Touchdown for Android I don’t think I’m not the only one in North America that has poor experiences with sports. For me sports (specifically American Football) usually involves playing in gym class with kids that were in better shape and more into winning at the game than I was. However, video games based upon sports – such as Super Touchdown – could interest me as these emphasiz...
