REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

DAILY MANIFESTO

Gears Of War Board Game Coming to Crush Your Tabletop

Posted on Friday, May 20 @ 17:30:19 Eastern by Josh_Laddin


Are you tired of pussy games like Monopoly and Life taking up space on your shelf? Want a board game with massive amounts of testosterone? Well if Gears of War: The Board Game doesn't do it for you, then you probably ought to stop reading this and focus on hunting down some Predators instead. For the rest of us, the newly announced tabletop game from Fantasy Flight Games will have to suffice.

According to the forthcoming game's product page

One to four players take on the roles of COG soldiers cooperating to destroy the Locust horde, and must work together to complete missions against an ingeniously challenging and varied game system... Roadie Run into cover, spray your enemy with blind fire, or rip him in half with your Lancer’s chainsaw!


That's a lot of action to promise from a board game, but for $79.95 (more than the video games) it better be that exciting and then some! No release date's been given yet, so if you're interested, keep an eye on the product page every once in a while.

    This has some potential. It might just top electronic Stratego (possibly the coolest board game out there)
