How Titanfall changed my mind and earned me $5 at Gamescom

I don’t hold much faith in first person shooters these days. The last FPS I played that I truly enjoyed would have been Bad Company 2 and I can split that enjoyment 50/50 between it being a good game and the people I was playing with. That opinion however, changed whilst I was in Germany.

Opinion: On Rogue Legacy and Coprolalia

Roguelikes have always been a thing of niche appeal, as their difficulty and unforgiving nature had a way of making people run away in terror. Rogue Legacy aims to capture some of the best aspects of the roguelike recipe, such as the difficulty and random nature of the game, and combine them with enough humor and fun platforming to give rise to the age of the roguelite!

Opinion: On Magrunner and Fhtagn

You had one job Magrunner, one job! And you couldn’t even get magnets right! Well, technically they’re not actually magnets, they’re some sort of proprietary MagTech. Some context should help clear things up. Magrunner: Dark Pulse is a first person puzzle-platformer brought to you by the fine devs over at Frogwares and 3am Games. You […]
