Confrontation – Hands-On Preview

Confrontation is currently slated for an early April release, and here we are with a – bit late – preview for it. What really saddens me is that this little gem will pass under the radar of a lot PC gamers. Ironically, this is what a lot of old-school western RPG fans have been asking for as Confrontation features deep mechanics, slow-paced and tactical combat, and a nice upgrade system.

Diablo 3 PC Preview

It’s been almost 12 years since the release of Diablo 2. During this time, a lot of things can change. New challengers had entered the ring and tried to reclaim D2’s throne. None of them succeeded.

And although this approach is pretty evident at the later levels of Unstoppable Gorg, it’s still a lot of fun. Continue reading Unstoppable Gorg Review

Hard Reset PC Review

Hard Reset’s preview code was great, that is something we have to admit. However, there was a big concern while playing it; could a company announce and release so quickly a highly polished game? Apparently not as Hard Reset is plagued by two major issues that have a negative impact to the whole gaming experience. It ends before it even starts and there is a limited type of enemies.
