New Details About Afro Samurai 2 | MOUSE n JOYPAD
New Details About Afro Samurai 2    Afro Samurai is a bizarre mix of different ideas. Samurai films originally inspired Hollywood Westerns; but Takashi Okazaki took his love for American hip-hop and those films, and turned it full circle back into an avant-garde tale of revenge. That, and it features a cyborg that wears a teddy bear’s head as a mask. As is I said before, it’s bizarre. Origi...[Read More]
Might and Magic: Heroes VII Beta Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Might and Magic: Heroes VII Beta Preview     I’ll be honest- I suck at turn-based strategy games.

Nothing about this setting intrigued me, and since I was unable to understand the deeper, sublime meanings hidden behind the comparatively thin plot there was little for me t...[Read More]
Act of Aggression Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Act of Aggression Review    Act of Aggression is something special. If I had to choose my favourite RTS, if my life depended on it, I would only be able to narrow my choice down to two titles – Supreme Commander (Forged Alliance) and Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour. Two relatively similar, yet entirely different examples of the given genre from back when it was still one of the most...[Read More]
Bounty Train Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Bounty Train Preview    Alright, on a show of hands, how many of you have played any Wild West games that you thought were awesome? Ok, now exclude any that were 3rd or 1st person shooters? I mean I can’t see you, not yet anyway, but I figure that most of your hands have gone down. Which if you think about it, is pretty interesting.
