Knights of the Old Republic iOS Reflex Review: Don’t Touch the Force
Playing Knights of the Old Republic was one of those defining moments of my gaming history. It was my first true RPG. It was my first BioWare game. It was the first game that genuinely surprised me with the ending. Plus, being a tween girl I was giddy over a romance option (Oh, who am… Continue reading
Gorky 17 Retro Review: Worth Some Time Travel
I can’t exactly explain what prompted me to purchase Gorky 17 this past week. While a low price is always attractive, I didn’t really have room in my queue for a game that was first released back in 1999. It’d be one thing if I’d done it for nostalgia related reasons, but I’d never heard… Continue reading
Ys 1 Review: Pronounced with Speed
Going back to play an old game can be an exercise in patience. More often than not, the outdated gameplay mechanics coupled with crappy graphics (by today’s standards) can be off-putting. This is especially the case when it comes to old school Japanese RPG’s. Sitting through 10 minutes of scrolling dialog boxes will probably mean… Continue reading
Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition Review: Rewards for the Fallen
One late Tuesday night, I sit back in my office chair at home with a sly grin wrapped around my face. A stream of sweat runs from my brow; my hands, shaking from the exhilaration his mind and reflexes just experienced. I’m tired, yet I feel the euphoria of accomplishment as I see the final boss… Continue reading
Cheap and Dirty Gamer: Dungeon Hearts Requires No Bribes
I woke up this morning to find I had some new items in my Steam inventory, which is always an exciting thing. Opening it up, I saw that I had a coupon for a “match 3” style puzzle/RPG called Dungeon Hearts. I’m not sure how it got there, but for a second I thought that… Continue reading
Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is Single Player Co-Op for Your Thumbs
Starbreeze has made some of my most memorable and atmospheric first person shooter moments of the last decade (Riddick, The Darkness, Syndicate). It has something a bit different in store for its next game, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. Brothers is a single player co-op experience where you will be controlling both characters at… Continue reading
Charlie Murder Thickens as Ska Studios Reports In
Just in case you were worried about Charlie Murder, Ska Studios has just checked in with an overview video and let’s just say the game is a bit more ambitious than the sneak peek we got back at PAX ’11. Chuck (can I call you Chuck?) and his crew have evolved into a “BrawlPG” complete… Continue reading
System Shock 2 Available Now on GOG and Coming to Steam
Trying to get classic PC games to play on modern hardware has gotten easier thanks to rereleases on digital stores, but that doesn’t mean every game has made the leap. Thankfully we can scratch one more off only-playable-by-hackers list as Night Dive Studios fought through the red tape to give the world a fresh release… Continue reading
Skyrim Dragonborn DLC Review: Uncomfortably Filling
To me, Skyrim is like a buffet that I have to continually step away from for fear of over indulging to the point of illness. As great as it is, a man can not live on bread and Skyrim alone, especially a man who has to maintain a high level of gaming diversity in order… Continue reading
Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Demo Impressions: Beautiful Worlds
Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch‘s title might be a little off-putting at first, but once you lay your eyes on the beauty contained within, the title doesn’t really matter…but expecting a great game based on great looks has led many to go down a dark path. Fortunately for Level-5, it looks like… Continue reading

Inspired by the likes of Baldur’s Gate, Icewind Dale, and Planescape: Torment, Project Eternity promises a rich world for questing and real-time tactical party combat with a pause system.
