LevelSave’s Game of the Year 2013

We are quite late with this but here it is, LevelSave’s Game of the Year. Last year, we did a podcast in which some of us argued for our favorite games and that’s how we got our GOTY. This year, we decided to try something slightly different. We had our writers vote on their top six games. The games that were voted on the most, made it to the next round. We voted again with the three games that got the most votes getting GOTY honors. Just like last year...

Amazon Black Friday PS3 Bundle removed from Calendar [UPDATE]

If you are anything like me you have been refreshing the Amazon Black Friday Calendar on occasion to check for any changes. The hope was that no changes would happen, but something did.

However, it no longer is on the Calendar page and thus no longer has a timer on it. It was originally supposed to go on sale at 3...

Into The Fray: Why the Wii U is Already Dead

Like many of my gaming counterparts Nintendo was the first console that I could truly call my own and is largely responsible for starting my love for video games.

The Last of Us: I Became a Monster **Spoilers**

The Last of Us hasn’t been a game I’ve been eager to revisit from a single player perspective since I wrote my review.  The campaign is dense and left me with a myriad of emotions.  I’ve been chewing on how I feel about the way things ended and wrapped up with Joel and Ellie and have been listening to others on Twitter, podcasts and through reviews.  There’s nothing good about the Last of Us in the way that it makes the player feel.  It’s...
