With two predecessors in its wake, Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 is the third installment to hit Xbox Live Arcade, iPad, Steam, and the PlayStation Network. The DotP series has generally been known fo...

The Duels of the Planeswalkers series has been a serious boon to Wizards of the Coast, Stainless Games' polished digital experience helping introduce new players to the company's flagship card game: Magic: the Gathering. Unfortunately, the game’s previous installments have all lacked one crucial element of the Magic experience: building your own original deck.

That saucy vixen Tara Long spent some time hanging out with Magic: The Gathering brand manager Paul Levy at PAX today to take a look at the latest updates to the digital version of the biggest collectible card game in the wo...

So, I've actually just been getting into Magic: The Gathering in the past few days. I picked up Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 over the weekend in the giant Microsoft sale in the Xbox Live Marketplace for just $5. Destructo...

There are thousands, if not millions, of games out there, begging to be played but last summer there was only one that mattered to me: Magical Drop 3. Whether I was practicing at home or showing off at my local arcade, Magic...

After a successful crowdfunding campaign on Gamesplanet Labs, developer Frogwares is branching away from its line of adventure titles and exploring a different area with Magrunner. And what better place to start tha...

Magrunner: Dark Pulse is a game that you may brush off as a Portal imitator at first - but I urge you not to do so. After playing through some levels on the E3 show floor, Magrunner has caught my attention not just with its delightful puzzle-solving mechanics but through the world and story itself.

Locomalito, the maker of wonderful games such as Hydorah, has another freeware release that once again probably should have been something that cost money -- the overall quality is just that good. This one is an arcade-style ...

The mod tools from Paradox's grand strategy masterpiece, Crusader Kings II, are now a part of March of the Eagles. This new set of tools will allow players to customize just about any aspect of the game and run multiple mods at once. Hopefully this means we'll get to see some crazy mods, like this one. This update also has a patch with gameplay tweaks and bug fixes. 

Hey guys! Remember this Mario / Portal crossover video? Looked like fun, didn't it? I wish we could play that for realsies, though... Wait a sec! You CAN! Oh boy! Indie studio Stabyourself has just released Mari0 (that's a z...

[Update: And I've just been informed that Mario was voiced in Mario Teaches Typing, which predates even Hotel Mario. The original 1991 DOS version used a different actor, but a 1995 CD-ROM re-release replaced him with Martin...

I completely forgot Mars War Logs was a thing, but this new combat trailer has appeared to remind us that it exists. Combat looks very reminiscent of Arkham City and Asylum (or should I say Assassin's Creed, which came first...

Knowing what I now know about Mars: War Logs, it may end up being one of those titles that becomes a solid bargain-bin pickup. It's on the right track: Spiders Studio has put out an update for the PC game which promises a be...

The heroes of the Marvel universe have had some success when transposed from their comic pages to the click-fest of the action RPG (ARPG) genre. X-Men Legends and Ultimate Alliance -- both of which spawned sequels -- provided...

A new DLC has just been announced for Mass Effect 3. Entitled "Leviathan," it'll be released later this summer for PC, PS3, and 360. It is single-player focused and will explorer the origins of the Reapers. Sadly, nothing was said about "Leviathan" coming to Wii U.

Omega is the second of the “post-Extended Cut” bits of single-player DLC for Mass Effect 3. The series and the community that has been built up around it have been taken on a wild ride over the past several months. There’s been a lot of exciting bits and a few disappointments. Unfortunately, Omega can take its place among the latter.

While it was already announced that Mass Effect Trilogy would hit PC and Xbox 360 on November 6 in North America, the last PlayStation 3 owners heard was an ominous "later date" for their version of the compilation. BioWare h...
