The Last of Us TV Spot

The Last of Us has finally been seen on TV, and it was during The Walking Dead season finale. I know many people were sad to hear the delay of this game (I am also part of this group).

GRID’s sweet concoction of controls and physics that have a touch of both realism and arcade-style to them made it one of my favorite games of this gen. All of that is back in this super short teaser trailer. The cars go by in a blur, but the most important thing to remember is that GRID 2 will be More >

Anarchy Reigns Review: A special kind of chaos

It can be hard to describe just exactly what kind of game Anarchy Reigns is and what you can do in it. At its base level, it’s a multiplayer brawler of intense proportions.
