How do you know Hollywood is getting serious about video games? They want to make one of their own.

Somewhere in your house is a game that could use a good beating. Pick it up. Play to the end. Get all the achievements/trophies out of it. So you’ve maxed out all your points.

We need games like ‘A Closed World’ for many reasons.

Not only a great game, ‘Uncharted 2’ raised the bar for storytelling for the medium. The game treated action as a part of the overall story rather than a way to move from plot point to plot point. Rob Manuel Read Quote
Waveform’ puts you in charge of the wavy pathway of a ship in space. Hit the good stuff and avoid the bad things. While it sounds simple, this title will keep you on your toes as you try to navigate the dark inky space. By hitting the items you want or following the correct path, you build up your combo as well as your speed. Rob Manuel Read Quote
One name always stands out when it comes to actors taking on the monsters of our nightmares – Robert Englund. In the ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’ series, Englund kept us awake as night with a striped shirt and his special glove. Rob Manuel Read Quote
