Team Ninja has announced two new assassins to the fighting roster for Dead or Alive 5, which is set to release in September for the Xbox 360 and PS3. The new characters aren't really "new," as both Christie and Bayman are making a return to the Dead or Alive series in DOA5. Both characters have been completely redesigned in their appearance, and their unique play styles have been honed as well. Christie, a British female assassin, is a cold-blooded, merciless woman. She possesses the perfect qualities for an assassin with Shequan (Snake …

May 3, 2012 By Jonas Allen Leave a Comment

Hitman: Absolution is one of the games I'm most looking forward to in 2012, with gameplay that rekindles the franchise's old-school stealth challenge while also offering run-and-gun options that promise an increased challenge.

Asura’s Wrath Review

May 1, 2012 By Jonas Allen Leave a Comment

Graphic novels and videogames seem to go hand in hand these days, with fans of either medium generally being connoisseurs of the other.

Asura’s Wrath presents an incredible anime style and an appropriately wonky hero’s plot, giving you the feeling of playing an anime episode like no other game before it. But maybe there’s a reason behind anime’s non-interactive history, because as spot-on as Asura’s Wrath may …

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City Review

April 21, 2012 By Jonas Allen 1 Comment

The Resident Evil franchise has been around for what seems like an eternity, both because its horror genre is a gameplay stalwart and because, well, it’s been around for 15 years. Like many franchises it’s evolved out of necessity, with an increased emphasis on action rather than relying strictly on “jump out of the dark to scare you” thrills. The latest entry, Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, takes the action emphasis farther than the series has previously gone, and it frankly suffers because of it. Worse yet, by relying so …
