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.
Playdead is a small game studio located in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their first title is Limbo.
Overview
Playdead was originally formed in 2006 under the name Underholdningsbranchen ApS ("Entertainment Business" in Danish.) Publishers and foreigners apparently had trouble pronouncing this, so the name was changed firstly to Limbo ApS and then finally to it's current moniker, Playdead, at beginning of 2009. Our goal is to develop challenging games and experiences for a broad audience of serious gamers.
Their first game, Limbo, is a sidescroller platformer for the Xbox 360. The game received very high reviews due to the dark atmosphere and graphical presentation.
