The past couple years have been slick with irony. Everywhere you look people are doing things they do not really enjoy for indecipherable reasons. Over time this has slowly evolved into an unironic appreciation of the ironic; this may or may not itself be ironic. In more succinct terms, the irony has backfired and made me personally, enjoy what are objectively the dumbest things. That is why, when I received an email informing me of the existence of a game called Broforce I...
The long-awaited 1.0 release of Path of Exile, Grinding Gear Games’ unorthodox MMO ARPG, has finally gotten a launch date. After spending a long time in the murky depths of Open Beta, and with many improvements over the months to show for it, this isometric-view hack-and-slash is getting a well-deserved 1.0 launch treatment. Featuring new story-content, new game modes, and even a new class, you won’t want to miss this if you’ve ever loaded up the Beta for a...
Sanctum, third place for my 2011 Game of the Year picks here at Levelsave.com (I’ve been here coming up on two years already?) by Coffee Stain Studios was a beautifully executed cross-genre experience. There has been some news of Sanctum 2 being released to both PC and console platforms, and I’ve gotten my hands on a preview build of the game. This is a game wherein you create a maze and place turrets to kill creeps, and then enter first person mode in order to...
The lil’ Creep and I continue to explore the tutorial dungeon of Oblivion which had its entrance conveniently located in our character’s prison cell. We find find many gobliny and ratty things, as well as some surprise mobs, hidden deep within the dark passages. Oh right, and as the title suggests, we learn to walk faster than 0.25 mph.. What a relief!

Torchlight II simply blows Diablo III out of the water.
War stands accused of touching off the apocalypse ahead of schedule and thus causing the extinction of humanity. Death (not to be confused with Azrael, the angel of death, encountered in the first Darksiders game,) sets out to absolve his brother rider of his alleged crimes. Darksiders II takes place concurrent to the events of Darksiders, and gives the player a nice summary of the plot and setting established in the first. Gameplay in Darksiders II has a maturity of...
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...
Finally, with the summer coming to a close and children begrudgingly huffing off to school, a light begins shining in the first fallen leaves. It is a warm light, flickering and bobbing, offering hope to the downtrodden. It is the light of a torch, it is Torchlight II. Having played much too little of the beta, I am so pleased to announce that this game will be hitting digital shelves on September 20. We worked incredibly hard to make sure we could release Torchlight...
