RollerCoaster Tycoon World Preview

One could easily say that the RollerCoaster Tycoon series opened a whole new door within the simulation genre, not only sparking the imagination of PC gamers worldwide but also laying the groundwork for other franchises to follow in its footsteps.   The very idea of managing something like a theme park, replete with shops and more,

Metro Redux Review

This updated and redesigned package containing the previously released titles, “Metro 2033” and “Metro: Last Light” is a big win for FPS fanatics and fans of the series.  Aside from its obvious graphical enhancements (which we’ll get into later) and thoughtful little gameplay additions, there’s also the great value of gaining a pair of games.

Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition Review
PC

Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition Review

All in all, “Surgeon Simulator: Anniversary Edition” is a macabre, funny and altogether strange game that has inexplicably stoked the fires of interest from a significant cross section of the gaming community.  As its name implies, you are a (supposedly) qualified surgeon who is tasked with performing all sorts of standardized operations.  Needless to say,

Pineview Drive Review

Pineview Drive Review

Visual Imagination Software’s “Pineview Drive” is really a one-of-a-kind offering, the sort of game that breaks ground in a small, but significant way.  Within the horror genre, the potential for things to become rather stale is always present, as many of you probably already well know.  For starters, there are only so many different types

Kick Ass 2 Review

Kick Ass 2 Review

Obviously, Kick-Ass 2 is a game that’s directly tied to the movie franchise, which extols the exploits of a hapless high school super hero who, along with a group of other ordinary citizens, decide to take justice into their own hands.  As for the game itself, it’s a brawler that basically bathes in the tropes

Risen 3: Titan Lords Review

There seems to be an undue amount of criticism being leveled at “Risen 3: Titan Lords”.  Sure, it really isn’t a completely polished affair, nor does it perfectly convey the sense of drama or guided storytelling that we’ve come to expect from the major blockbusters, but relegating this game to “garbage” status is an incredibly

Rollercoaster Tycoon Review

Rollercoaster Tycoon Review

For all intents and purposes, Chris Sawyer Productions’ (including Frontier Developments, for the Xbox) original “Rollercoaster Tycoon” is the granddaddy of all the amusement park sims out there and still stands alone as one of the better specialized simulators available for those who get a kick out of management and resource allocation.  One could even

10 Games That Have Amazing Storylines

For the most part it is always the gameplay that makes for a truly awesome video gaming experience, but there’s also something to be said about storytelling, especially if it’s really great.  While the mechanics of a title are always going to be what increases the “fun factor” in most instances, it is a quality

Tropico 5 Review

Tropico 5 Review

Among the many city-building simulators out there, the Tropico series has emerged to forge a solid position ahead of the competition due to its in-depth control of activities as well as its solid graphics.  With Tropico 5 it would seem that developer Haemimont Games has taken things a few steps further by incorporating competitive and

We Are the Dwarves! Preview

Simply stated, there really aren’t many titles which delve into the secret world of Dwarves.  Empire-driven humans, elves, even orcs?  Yes.  But not really a large selection out there when it comes to Tolkien-esque / fantasy-themed dwarf-kind, at least not the sort that specifically caters to their exploits.  What makes developer Whale Rock Games’ (based

BloodBath Review
PC

BloodBath Review

Taking a quick look at “BloodBath” it would first appear to have all the necessary elements required of an arena combat PC game.  It has decent visuals, intriguing character design, and of course, an engrossing, yet oft-treaded storyline concept involving your standard dystopia / apocalypse setting.  However, none of these elements are able to congeal
