Star Wars Pinball [ Review ]Star Wars and pinball may seem like an odd combination, but it certainly works with Zen Pinball’s Star Wars DLC. Parlor games have evolved so much in the past years, and Zen Studios was able to properly integrate the enthralling special effects and amazing fight scenes within the George Lucas and Steven Spielberg classic series of films. The Star Wars dual trilogy has impacted two whole generations of viewers, and while these films have influenced video games of many varying genres, it would probably be the first time that the Force is displayed so vehemently in a pinball game.

Miner Wars 2081 [ Review ]The good thing about indie games is that they come in all shapes and sizes, something that is limited in triple A mainstream releases.

Nonetheless, it doesn't mean that there's no market for such games, and Miner Wars 2081 comes out to an audience that misses mech combat.

Guild Wars 2 - Leveling Up Walkthrough [ Guide ]Guild Wars 2 is the follow up to ArenaNet’s Guild Wars, which was released for Microsoft Windows way back in April 2005. Aside from the usual graphic and performance enhancements, as well as added features within the game, Guild Wars 2 also employs a dynamic level adjustment system where characters are scaled up or down depending on the situation. This feature, which is also applicable during PvP modes, makes the game more fair especially with regards to lower level players, and it also makes for a more challenging affair as all content can be considered as “end game” content, regardless [ ...More ]

Tower Wars [ Review ]Tower defense is one of those genres that do have potential in being marketable to casual audiences, but still needs that one title to take it to the next level. Perhaps the best title it has had so far is Plants vs Zombies, but a multiplayer game is still needed to make tower defense a recognizable genre. That's where Tower Wars comes in, a game with multiplayer in mind.
The genre is still quite popular, with countless variations on the same concept of defending against waves of attackers and staying alive. However, what it does lack is the offensive factor, in [ ...More ]

Guild Wars 2 - What to Expect [ Editorial ]Guild Wars 2 is ArenaNet's newest upcoming MMORPG and the sequel to the original Guild Wars. It will be exclusive to the PC (MMOs are not typically on consoles anyway) and will feature what is possibly ArenaNet's greatest game creation yet. I truly have never seen a deeper, more engaging MMORPG than Guild Wars 2. In my honest opinion as a CheatMasters editor, this game beats the hell out of World of Warcraft (a popular MMORPG developed by Blizzard Entertainment).
There are many changes in Guild Wars 2 over the original, but the first to notice is the graphics and animations. [ ...More ]

Red Faction: Armageddon | What Is Best In Life Achievment [ Guide ]The objective is to conduct melee finishers on twenty-five creepers. This achievement can be unlocked on single player mode only.
Step by Step

2. Creepers are the smallest of enemies in the game and they attack mostly from close range. So, once one of them approaches you, then just hit and Darius will stomp it in the face for an instant-kill.

E3 Kinect Star Wars Floor DemoOne of the more interesting titles at E3 was Kinect Star Wars. I remember when I kept seeing that title I thought it was a work in progress.

I'm not sure all I know is in the demo later on you are fighting in Naboo, you go through a door and you are in the carbonite freezing chamber, ugh.
Anyway check it out for yourself and remember [ ...More ]
