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
By Starling
Posted on 06/15/13

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...

Ignoring the fact that I killed myself off in that last headline, IO Interactive made headlines today by announcing that it was splitting its focus between the already announced Hitman: Absolution and brand new IP.

Speaking with Joystiq, Chair creative director Donald Mustard assured fans of downloadable outing Shadow Complex that the sequel to that game is somewhere down the pipeline:
