PS3, X360, PC- Game of Thrones
- Review
- There is probably a great role-playing game to be made out of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels, but Game of Thrones isn't it.
MAC, PC- Diablo III
- Review
- The first Diablo game in over a decade is also one of the most insidiously satisfying loot treadmills in almost as long.
PS3N, PS3, X360, PC- Prototype 2
- Review
- Prototype 2 gives you some interesting abilities that can be fun to use, but it doesn't give you enough good opportunities to cut loose with all that power.
PS3, X360, PC- Max Payne 3
- Review
- Rockstar Games modernizes and makes Max Payne its own, creating something grittier and more grounded in reality, if not quite as singular.
The arcade version is arguably the first racing game, and the home version is considered by many to be a true classic.
The arcade version of Night Driver was one of the first racing games ever made. The more commonly known Atari 2600 home version of the game featured cars in the opposing lane of traffic, different modes of play including set tracks and a random track, and decorative features on the side of the road (houses and trees).
The use of reflective roadside markers helped suggest the illusion of gradual movement as the vehicle accelerated, cars in the opposing lane will honk has you pass by them, and they'll wreck if you crash into them. Though, heartless fiend that you are, you leave your victim's wrecked vehicle and continue on your way with only a loss in time. Waiting at the side of the road, though possible, yields no benefit. This destructive disregard for other human beings continued in later racing games, such as the famous Pole Position.
