Starcraft II - Terran Strategy: The Nuke Rush [Guide]Few things in StarCraft II can ever match the fury of a tactical nuclear strike, sent down from the heavens by a carefully positioned Ghost. It's like cleaning up a mess with magic, with enemy units disappearing all at once and buildings sustaining massive damage that would have taken over a minute to deal. It's usually reserved for the mid to late game as a defensive tactic or as an equalizer, but there is also a way to bring it in the early game to surprise the opponent.
Overview
Terran players don't need any logical reason for doing a nuke rush. [ ...More ]

Chernobyl Commando [Review]Most of the games churned out by the indie game development scene are pretty good, some of which even inspires awe and wonderment. However, there are some not-so-good ones that sneak past whatever filter there is and get released. Some are really bad, while most are mediocre at best. Chernobyl Commando is one of those titles, unfortunately enough. While it doesn't seem so bad at first glance, you then play it and see the cracks within.
Chernobyl Commando is a game about Captain Yuri Ryakov, who was sent to Chernobyl to intercept terrorists who are attacking the power plant. [ ...More ]

Resident Evil: Revelations (HD) [Review]Here is yet another Resident Evil game. Before the collective moan and groan, give this game a try before handing it a verdict, unlike what most did with the much-condemned but alright Resident Evil 6. It's a multiplatform re-release of the Resident Evil game for the 3DS from early last year. That's yet another HD remake by Capcom, so this may not get a vote of confidence from gamers right away. But at least it's still about the zombies.
Resident Evil: Revelations is set between the events of Resident Evil 4 and 5, just after the establishment of the Bioterrorism Security [ ...More ]

Denpa Men 2: Beyond the Waves [Review]I do not know what Denpa specifically means, nor do I really need a specific definition. For me, the term is perfect for the pudgy and quirky little characters found in the title, and the name does them justice, just like a Wookie, or an Oompa Loompa. Don’t think of the Denpa Men as pushovers, however, as they can certainly pack a punch as they battle an army of different monsters in this sequel to Denpa Man: They Came by Wave.
Denpa Man 2: Beyond the Waves tells the story of your main Denpa whose family has been kidnapped by Ooks. [ ...More ]

The Testament of Sherlock Holmes [Review]Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes has thoroughly seeped into our mainstream culture and is no longer just old stories written a long time ago. New tales are being told about the detective and his good doctor friend, including movies with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, as well as a television series with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman. It's only logical that there be some video games are made with this source material, at least to shove Professor Layton aside as the top sleuth in gaming.
This Sherlock Holmes game is not a lighthearted one, but a bit more faithful to [ ...More ]

The Night of the Rabbit [Review]It’s quite fun to revert to your childhood days every once in a while, with all the wide eyed wonder and innocence that youth entails. Even in video games where players are expected to play “manly” and mature games, which basically means that you have to kill people (or a hundred) in order to push the game forward, getting your hands on a rather whimsical title is a breath of fresh air. Luckily, The Night of the Rabbit is one such game, and it aims to take gamers to a place where things were much simpler and a whole lot [ ...More ]
