By Jared Cornelius Welcome back for another rundown of the week's hot new video game tape releases.  This week we've got two main themes, re-releases and horror, with a bit of both blended in for good measure.  That's right, dear reader, we're getting a couple of repackaging's including hardware this week.  We're seeing quite a few titles showing up for the[...]

Dragon Age Inquisition, and Shadow of Mordor were slated for this week but both publishers decided moving would be in everyone's best interests.  But no fear as we're still left with a huge, diverse calendar.  From single player horror, to re-releases, and best of all your free games if you subscribe to PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold. After the disastrous Colonial Marines you'd think that Sega would've[...]

By Jared Cornelius Since the beginning of August we've been treated to a steady stream of high profile new releases but today we've officially marked the start of the fall season's huge releases.  This week is the launch of what might be one of the biggest titles of the year and has pretty much overshadowed everything else for the week.  There's some games that fell through[...]

By Jared Cornelius The summer season is edging closer and closer to an end for many of us.  September brings a lot of things including a brand new school year, a return to college, or maybe even a revised work schedule and it's almost a little difficult to believe another summer has  practically come and gone.  At the cost of many of you losing your[...]

By Jared Cornelius Hey gang, before we get started this week just a bit of housekeeping news, I've decided to retire the Live(ish) From The Games Shop moniker.  Without getting into the boring specifics, I got tired of my ego stroking Google searches turning up results for bait shops.  It's also made less sense since our beloved EIC[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop.  With San Diego Comic Con and E3 out of the way, it looks like we're finally in the home stretch of summer.  I know we have a whole month left, but one of the telltale signs of summer ending is the games release schedule is picking up.  This week[...]

Winterbottom that was a critical success on Xbox Live back in 2010.  With the resume of Chuck BB, The Odd Gentlemen, along with a story by Gaiman, the pedigree on this title is astounding.  Wayward Manor released Tuesday on Steam. If last week's Supercombo Man left you hungry for more 2D fighting, the guys at ACE Team have got you covered with Abyss Odyssey.  The 2D platformer features procedurally generated levels[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop.  Last week's 4th of July celebration reminded me of independence, independence from retail releases that is.  Yes, dear reader, the trend continues with only a very niche title being released at retail.  But don't fret, this week digital returns and indie games come to save you[...]

Blazkowicz your awakened from a coma in a European asylum to find its 1960, and the Nazis won World War II.  If that wasn't bad enough they developed some sort of hyper advanced technology that helped win the war, and now have a stranglehold on the world.  New Order has a heavy emphasis on single player story telling with no[...]

Borderlands 2 plays a bit like a first person shooter version of Diablo, with new gear and equipment dropping from enemies, making it perfectly suited for loot driven gamers.  The PlayStation Vita version includes all six character, two of the DLC expansion packs, and cross saves between the Vita and PlayStation 3 versions.  One downside is the Vita version only has two[...]

By Jared Cornelius Welcome back to Live(ish) From The Games Shop, It's another week of video games for a real niche audience.  I'm not going to lie to

 Games that would never to be held up as a critical darling, only existing to be pointed to and laughed at.  I said it in that article and I'll say it again, everyone who's played a game can point to some awful licensed title.  Games like Maximum Carnage, Dragon Ball Z, Superman, hell anyone remember the Aquaman game for GameCube and Xbox?  But I[...]

By Jared Cornelius With two new consoles having been born over the last holiday, I thought I'd take time to talk about some-thing near and dear to my heart in looking back at retro games.  The brand spanking new Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are missing a key feature.  A feature publishers don't care about, and[...]
