PAX West 2016: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III hands-on

I’m a seasoned strategy gamer, or so I’d like to think. I’ve also been following and playing Warhammer 40,000 since I was 12 (I’m 30 now). When Dawn of War came out in 2004, I was beside myself with excitement. With the expansions installed, I

PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS alpha gameplay footage

PLAYERUNKNOWN created a popular extreme survival mod for Arma III and H1Z1 called Battle Royale, inspired by the movie of the same name. Simply put, it’s a winner-take-all fight to the death. However, PLAYERUNKNOWN has set his sights on something else; he wants to create a new and improved

PAX West 2016: Steep hands-on

Backcountry skiing and snowboarding is about avoiding the crowds and finding the freshest, most untouched slope. But it isn’t just about finding that untamed powder, it’s also about exploring the alpine wilderness and appreciating Mother Nature’s impressive handiwork.

PAX West 2016: Gears of War 4 Horde 3.0 hands-on

Gears of War 4 had been making me nervous. Knowing that Epic Games is no longer involved in the development of an IP that I’ve spent so many hours playing and have been so passionate about has made me apprehensive about its future. During PAX West 2016, however, much

PAX West 2016: South Park: The Fractured But Whole

South Park excels at making fun of things. People, ideas, companies, religions, it doesn’t matter, everything and everyone is fair game to the trash talking 4th graders of rural Colorado. The new South Park game is a superhero-based RPG poking fun at superheroes and RPGs. But the series has

PAX West 2016: Final Fantasy XV hands-on

It’s unlikely that there are many games more highly anticipated than Final Fantasy XV. During PAX West, I had the opportunity to try it out for an hour. But before I go any further, I should admit that I’ve never played a Final Fantasy game before. Yes, you

Reviews   -   Sep 06, 2016 Towering above: Project Highrise review

There’s a fascinating beauty about skyscrapers. They inspire awe and embody the ability of Man to create, to dream, and to build. I am always struck by their sophistication and sheer size. And yet, their inner workings have always remained somewhat of a mystery to me. How are they

Shiny, but not strategic: Meridian: Squad 22 review

A game designed and developed entirely by one person is impressive. Considering the low price tag of $15 for Meridian: Squad 22, it does boast some fantastic visuals and sound. Maps, units, and terrain look unique and are bursting with vibrant colors. The cutscenes look incredible and the audio team
