  Ori and The Blind Forest was announced during last E3 and it looked to be a beautiful prospect. My enthusiasm for the game has only grown as I've

Sitting down with a couple of friends to roll out across Pandora to grind for loot was one of the funnest co-op experience from the last generation.

That is insane, because those kinds of games are usually some of the first on a new generation console to showcase new graphical capabilities See Forza 5 on the Xbox One for a[...]

Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons was one of the very best games of 2013, marrying both story and play into a heart wrenching experience If you haven't had a chance to play, I highly recommend it. It was a beautifully tragic, contained story that wrapped up in a complete fashion That is why I'm a[...]

It looks like Nintendo are really banking on the title and hoping to make one of the more obscure Zelda games a lot less obscure. What's one more trailer on top of all that then?
