I was skeptical about Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse. The fact that the game was being called a reimagining of the classic Genesis game, rather than a remaster like DuckTales Remastered, had me worried. After all, the original game was amazing and a lot of people have fond memories of spending their childhoods at more »

Open your wallets everyone, and prepare for the Humble Bundle with Android 6. Hey, wait a minute. There’s a new Humble Bundle? Didn’t we just have a Humble Indie Bundle? Yeah, we did! Man, I guess the Humble Bundle folks and indie developers want us to have the biggest backlog ever this summer. On the more »

Hey everyone, GOG.com has just announced its Summer 2013 sale, which this year has been dubbed the 2013 #noDRM Summer Sale! Best of all is, hmm, excuse me for me for a moment.

Oh Amazon, you don’t let any good idea get past you. The site has seen the success of indie video game bundles, like the Humble Indie Bundle, and has decided to jump on the bandwagon. The result is the Indie Combat Pack (and Ticket to Ride), a 10 game pack that gives people a pretty more »

Ready for the briefest Casual Friday casual game update ever? See, I was at E3 2013 this week. I played at least 35 of the newest video games. Maybe 40, as you tend to lose count pretty quickly. I’ve only covered about a fourth of them so far, which means I have a lot to more »

I was pretty surprised to see Pac-Man Championship Edition DX + at Namco Bandai’s E3 2013 booth. I mean, initially, I thought it was just Pac-Man Championship Edition DX. Then, I looked a little closer, saw the “+” symbol, and decided to go ahead and give it a try to see what was different. I more »

Final Fantasy is never really final, which explains why I’m writing about the 14th numbered incarnation of the game. Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (FFXIV) is a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game, like the 12th version.

I came into E3 feeling very curious about How to Survive by developer EKO Software. It’s being shown off at an interesting time. The latest hit in the zombie apocalypse genre is State of Decay.

Sqaure Enix has released footage of the Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII gameplay video that will be shown at E3 2013. The video shows the pink haired heroine as she runs, jumps and battles her way through an ominous old building. What do I think of the trailer? Well, it’s disappointing to see that it more »
