A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Flying Closer To The Sun – Back in March 2012, Nintendo released Kid Icarus as part of their revival 3D Classics series. If fans pre-ordered Kid Icarus Uprising, a download code for Pit’s original adventure was rewarded or 3DS users can download this game for $6 via the eShop. However, Nintendo is currently including this […]

Mirror Mirror On the Wall – Before jumping into Mirror of Fate’s 10 hour quest, it might be best to remove any preconceived notion you have the Castlevania series. Thing is, it is not a new Symphony of the Night, nor is it Lords of Shadow, and it isn’t quite like the games in the […]

Give Me Something To Break – Every year Guinness, overseers of mankind’s world records, publishes a Gamer’s Edition. Often working alongside Twin Galaxies, this annual publication is a place where hardcore gaming fanatics, developers, and publishers can be honored for their fastest times, highest scores, and all around gaming dedication. The book is broken down […]
Dead On – Metal Gear Rising has had a rough development cycle. Starting in-house, Kojima Productions was having difficulty locking down the overall design of Raiden’s first solo adventure so instead passed off development responsibilities to the action fanatics at Platinum Games of Madworld, Vanquish, and Bayonetta fame. The end result is not a typical […]
