Zack Zero Review: What’s In A Score? That Which We Call A Zero, By Any Other Name Would Still Suck As Much
Sometimes game developers make my job really easy. Sometimes they make games that are truly innovative, narratively engaging, beautiful to behold and possessed of so many virtues one cannot help but extol them. Like Skyrim.

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon Review: Shooting Giant Neon Lizards With Laser Guns Has Never Been More Fun
It’s quite a rare thing that Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon attempts to do.

Review: Defender’s Quest: Valley of the Forgotten
There’s something about naming a character at the beginning of an RPG that gives a player some emotional investment.
