It's so hard to watch gameplay from the now-titled The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and not instantly be taken back to those SNES or GameBoy days. Well, unless you didn't play those games. Anyway, while t...

The Wii U game "X," being developed by MonolithSoft, was show again at today's E3 Nintendo Direct, and holy gee whiz does it look amazing. As an open world game, the player will be able to pilot a giant robot in what seems l...

Sony's cloud service has been announced to arrive in 2014 instead of at launch for the PlayStation 4. PS3 games will also be able to be played on the PS Vita via the cloud-based gaming service. The cloud service should hopefully provide a long-lasting library of older games for both PS4 and Vita users. Cloud gaming! I hope you're not tired of that phrase yet.

Sony has never quite had the mascot power that, say, Nintendo has always had with Mario. Well, I think they found their best contender yet: Maurice the fast-talkin' Goblin. He's funny, witty, and all attitude!

EA's press conference unsurprisingly talked about the next installment of Madden, this time focusing on how precise each player's footwork can now be. Players doing quick cuts, leaping over players, and probably spraining the...

[This review contains some minor spoilers from earlier episodes.] The first episode of Kentucky Route Zero absolutely blew me away. Beautiful art mixed with the "I'm not really sure what's happening" atmosphere made for an un...

I got a chance to play Tiny Brains at PAX East this year, and it was definitely one of the best and probably most overlooked games at the show. I had three friends with me playing it, and the four-player synergy was just...

Every so often, a patch hits the original DOTA that changes a million things all at once. Then, about a week later, that patch hits Dota 2. These patches are infrequent enough to get used to them, yet frequent enough to ...

It takes a certain type of game to become an obsession for me. While I play a lot of Dota 2 and Rock Band, I would call them more of a hobby than an obsession. Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac, how...

I didn't know what to expect before playing The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing. I've seen the movie, but I don't remember much from it other than Wolverine fighting a lot of monsters. Luckily, that basic knowledge was a...
