It really seems like less than a month has gone by since I first got the chance to first-hand; but here we are already in November, and the game at last has been released commercially. If you missed the earlier article - which got into the detailed aspects of the

If you're anything like me, very few games these days have you replaying them just so you can master them. Most games get a thorough play through, and some are even a battle to finish, but not many have you reloading completed levels just to better your last

One good thing about writing game reviews is that you can't help but give a game a second chance. If I had played the demo of Ion Assault, I would have probably played it for five minutes before passing it over. My first impressions of this game were

The Warriors was a classic 70's movie, well worth a watch today if you can track it down. The story goes something like this - a city, overrun with gang violence, is the backdrop for the story of a particular gang (the titular Warriors) and the evolving situation

The Call of Duty franchise has continued to be enormously popular, and for good reason - it has always delivered a good solo experience (albeit a short one), and a very well crafted and thought out multiplayer option. It is a tried and true formula that has been refined over
