Revenge is a dish best served cold
What’s cooler than being cool? That’s a question that you should probably pose to DC Comics antagonist Mr. Freeze, but it may be best to wait until he’s in a good mood. While industry attention may be firmly fixated on the upcoming Batman: Arkham Knight, developer Warner Bros Montreal hasn’t finished with...

We need an Insurgent urgent

A safe bet
While it may be one of the funniest times of the year, April Fools' Day can also be a bit of a nightmare on our end, as a lack of scrutiny can lead to a reporter accidentally posting a prank as real news.

One for the parents
The Last of Us is certainly not a game intended for children, but its themes are very family orientated.

Downloadable expansion will fill in the blanks
Just like Killzone: Shadow Fall before it, inFAMOUS: Second Son represents a new start for Sucker Punch’s superhero series. However, just because it’s moving to a fresh location and introducing a new protagonist in the process, that doesn’t mean that you should erase the events of the previous...
