PAX: Hands on with DMC – More Flash than Lil’ Wayne
Upon starting the DMC demo at PAX Prime 2012, I was told by PR that there were two demos available. One, in which Dante is pulled into Limbo and you fight through demons and engage in some challenging, yet fun, platforming. The other, is a boss battle which we’ll get to soon. The first demo began with Dante walking down the street and slapping a Virility drink out of an overweight man’s hand. A video camera spots Dante and turns into a demon eye. The demon eye...

PAX : Hands on with XCOM: Enemy Unknown – Welcome to Erf
Strategy games? I freaking love them. I love the classic style of RTS games for sure, build your base, build units, destroy everything ever. Always a good time. XCOM : EU is not RTS though, it is turn based and fans love it. Instead of constructing a command center on each level, you build, create, customize, upgrade, and research from your XCOM headquarters. You’ll select which type of unit you’ll want to train/build. Then after that you’re able to name...
PAX: Dead Island Riptide Demo Impressions
It is no secret that I did not enjoy the first Dead Island. I felt mislead by the amazing advertisement and promise of an open world zombie game. What I received was a series of fetch quests that actually made me hate zombies for a time. If I was not reviewing the game I would have just set it down and probably never picked it back up again. However, what I saw of Dead Island Riptide was enough to make me consider picking the game up, even with the sour taste in my...
Hands On with Armada Online – MMO Plus… In Space
I have recently had the pleasure of speaking with with Mark Jordan, a developer of Armada Online as well as the original Armada for the SEGA Dreamcast. Before getting in touch with him, I had never heard of the game, nor had I heard of it’s sequel. This struck me as a bit of a personal failure since I am so gung-ho about retro games and even own a Dreamcast, though there aren’t too many great exclusives for it anymore. Since then, I have been falling deeper and...
PAX: Hands On With Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
I am about to say something radical guys, I like Raiden. I like him as a character, I like him as a ninja, and I like him as a protagonist. Now to say something less radical. I like Platinum Games. Though I have never beaten one of their games, I have enjoyed all the time I have spent with them. So imagine my dismay when I did not enjoy my time with Metal Gear Rising Revengeance . My demo began about mid way through a mission and so I was not treated to the tutorial...
RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D coming to Nintendo 3DS Next Month
You guys don’t understand my excitement about this game coming to 3DS, I was just telling Taryn, from our Playstation team, at PAX about Rollercoaster Tycoon. I spent a dumb amount of hours on that game creating the greatest theme park ever. I would also let the theme park goers get onto an unfinished rollercoaster, just to see them launched into the air at 80 mph. Back to the point, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3D is now coming to the Nintendo 3DS October 16th for an...
PAX: Hands on with Orc Attack- A Gas
While planning for PAX there were multiple skype meetings between the staff that was attending the show. During almost every single meeting I tried to convince everyone to go see Orc Attack with me, it never worked. Near the end of our last meeting before the convention I was able to make Austin agree to go with me; after I told him you could fart to attack. So during PAX we would walk by the booth, always with somewhere else to be, and say “We gotta get to Orc Attack.”...
