    Anyone know some good Urban Fantasy games?

    Some of you don't seem to fully understand what urban fantasy is. In essence, it is a narrative sub-genre of contemporary fantasy (meaning it's just a fantasy story set in a modern or near-modern world) that takes place primarily in or around an urban environment (i.e. it's in a city)...

    Ratchet and Clank... Are getting a movie?

    I'm really really excited for this, and it's mostly because the people at rainmaker entertainment (recent staight-to-dvd barbie films aside) are the people that brought us this [http://www.g33k-e.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/reboot.jpg]

    Can't play the Halo 4 Campaign. Help!

    I bought Halo 4 brand new on launch day, got home, and booted up the campaign. I didn't have too much time, so I shut it off mid-mission during "Requiem." When I went back to play today - my first opportunity to do so - there was no "continue campaign" option on the main menu as I had...

    Candle Reviews: The Unfinished Swan

    The Unfinished Swan Every once in a while, a game comes along that just completely blows away your expectations. When I sat down to play The Unfinished Swan, a PlayStation-exclusive downloadable title, all I knew was that it would be primarily in black and white. Having seen this...

    Candle Reviews: Dishonored

    It's specified at the bottom of the intial post as well as in the description of the video on the YouTube page that the copy that was reviewed was on the PS3. As for Mark of the Ninja, it's kinda been completely off my radar, so I may eventualy do it in the future, but that is unlikely.

    Candle Reviews: Dishonored

    Candle Reviews: Anna

    Anna The best thing that can be said about Anna, a first person, horror adventure game recently released to PCs via Steam, is that it isn?t terrible. Sadly, though, neither is it good in any sense of the word. In fact, Anna is just one of those games that seems to be mediocre in...
