Crimson Alliance, introducing Moonshade
Here is the last character preview for Certain Affinity's Crimson Alliance, which comes out in a week, on September 7. This video features the assassin Moonshade, who does what assassins do. There are clouds of smoke, ranged attacks and stabbing. We've already seen the wizard and mercenary. I like these top-down games, and this doesn't look bad, though I am a little worried about them getting rid of the 'boring' dialogue and inventory. I am a fan of dialogue. It will be on Xbox Live Arcade, and if you bought all the games from Summer of Arcade, you will be getting this one for free. Free stuff is never a bad thing Did you know?

11:30 PM on 05.22.2013 Sunset Riders: How the west was fashionableWhen we think of the American west, we think of outlaws and lawmen, settlers trying to eke out a new life in an inhospitable place and, most of all, stylish dress composed of pastels and fringe. It is in that spirit that Jordan and I approached Sunset Riders for the Super Nintendo, knowing that while it was important to be good, that should be secondary to looking good.

10:30 PM on 05.22.2013 Raise your badger children in Might and Delight's ShelterLife as a mother badger doesn't strike me as something that would be particularly easy, but conflict sure does make for an interesting story.

9:30 PM on 05.22.2013 Here's your Company of Heroes 2 campaign trailerI'm really grateful that Sega has picked up Company of Heroes 2 after THQ's collapse. The original was a great real-time strategy title, one that I had most of my fun with in multiplayer more than the single-player. This tra...

1:30 PM on 05.22.2013 Jimquisition: Xbox One out of TenThe Xbox One was revealed this weak to thunderous applause. Oh wait, did we say applause? We meant, farts. Thunderous farts. Speaking of farts, here's a man who loves the smell of his, tearing Microsoft's unified entertainment philosophy to shreds and arguing how the Xbox One is basically a system for nobody but the privileged and demented.
