Joystiq has reported that Metro: Last Light now has an official release date of May 14th for North America and May 17th for Europe. While the title being pushed back to May more than likely has to do with the recent THQ troubles, the three day delay for European gamers is a bit of a… Continue reading

It’s no secret that BioShock Infinite is one of the most anticipated games of 2013, and continues to tease us with trailers to hopefully dilute our feelings of disappointment that have grown with every release date push.

Far Cry 3 Reflex Review: The New Standard for Open World FPS
While I enjoyed the first two entires in the Far Cry series, they had little in common outside of their love for jungle environments, so I didn’t know what to expect from Far Cry 3. The trailer knocked my socks off, but I wasn’t sure whether its beauty or intensity could transition into an actual playable… Continue reading
Natural Selection 2 Game Curious Video: Aliens and Marines Hate Each Other
Most people probably won’t remember the original Half-Life mod Natural Selection. Forgivable since it came out in ’02. Don’t let that stop you from checking out Unknown Worlds’ Natural Selection 2.

Two Painkiller: Hell & Damnation Trailers Full of Pleasure
The original Painkiller was the Doom 3 we all wanted. Unfortunately, we couldn’t know that at the time of its release. Yet that didn’t stop me from enjoying its refreshingly old school shooter sensibilities. Wave after wave of demonic and supernatural foes. Giant bosses. Amazing weapon designs. A f******* stake gun. You either love Painkiller… Continue reading

In a bit of news that should be quite a bit more common than it is, 4A Games has decided to stop work on the multiplayer portion of Metro: Last Light and put all of their effort into the single player. Apparently some E3 fan response was all it took to make the developer rethink including… Continue reading
Black Mesa Source Reflex Review: Same Goodness, More Flavor
The original Half-Life held a very special place in my gaming heart, a place that I’d forgotten about after a decade full of brandishing weapons and then using aforementioned weapons from a first person perspective. In addition to that, I wasn’t a huge fan of the sequel (though I did like the improvements in terms… Continue reading
Monolith Founder Says “There Might be Blood”
Founder and former CEO of Monolith Jace Hall has sought the guidance of a very wise group of individuals as to whether or not bringing back the mid-nineties ultra gory horror FPS Blood is something that people could get behind.

Rage Recoil Review: Never Felt Better
There are risks to my method of purchasing games, since most of the time, the method goes something like this: let Justin Lacey buy the game and then find out whether it’s worth purchasing. If it doesn’t come up in conversation at some point in the future and it’s not raved about (or it’s one… Continue reading
