This week on WWE’s Monday Night Raw, it was revealed that the cover of WWE 2K14 would feature Dwayne “The Rock” Johnston. It was a fairly boring, yet predictable choice considering that Dwayne has been pushed in the WWE heavily over the past couple of years, despite only making a couple of appearances.

This is, probably, the hardest thing for me to write. Over the past month, prominent video game community member David “Knuckles Dawson” Dreger, has been missing.

The player controls a character who has at their command an army of these little Pikmin creatures of various colors. The goal is simply to make use of the colored Pikmin’s special abilities to search an alien planet for food and… Read More »
Goichi Suda, known to many as Suda 51, has quickly become one of my favorite developers. The games he produces are filled with absolutely insane ideas, tons of referential humor and some really unique gameplay. The latest creation from this insane mind, Killer is Dead, has grabbed my attention even without knowing what to expect… Read More »
I’ve talked in the past about how I’m tentatively excited for Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. While Assassin’s Creed III was, personally, very unimpressive I still hold out hope that the next installment will knock it out of the park.
