"For all of history, mankind has pursued the opportunity to live forever. Perhaps it’s the natural human desire to learn more about the world, or perhaps it’s the spirit of progression as a people, but immortality has become a mythic inspiration for persevering minds throughout mankind’s existence. However, it’s easily the best example of the “be careful what you wish for” scenario. Would living forever truly put a person’s anxieties to rest, or would experiencing eternity be an endless road w..."

"GamingUnion: "A problem highlighted so often in the first-person shooter genre is the lack of any real story. Too much focus is placed on heart-pounding action and it tends to draw away from the identity of the character, and what they represent or are trying to accomplish may be lost in a hailstorm of bullets. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's hard to have your title stand out in the crowd when it's not attempting to try anything new. Enter The Darkness, an IP that's always..."

"GamingUnion: "The somewhat contentious reimagining of the Syndicate IP spawned a multiplayer demo for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 on January 31st. Most of the groaning centered on the belief that the beloved corporate warfare simulator would be reduced to just one more retail title forcibly shoved into the first-person shooter mold in hopes of making a buck - or perhaps would be a poor-man's copy of Deus Ex, trying to capitalize on the cyberpunk/Metal Gear Solid mash-up of that title. The fond ..."

"Even with each hero being framed within these stereotypes, the humor and rapport that each character has with one another makes for all of the encounters to be enjoyable without feeling overplayed. The puzzles throughout Trine 2 are the real draw to the game and while some of them may leave you scratching your head for a few minutes, the game never feels cheap or illogical. Playing solo is fun, but playing with friends is truly one of the best co-op experiences available."
