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

Hawken's PAX East Trailer Gives Hope For A Grimy Space-Faring Future

Posted on Saturday, April 7 @ 12:54:20 Eastern by

Of all the things to combine into one, Adhesive Games has chosen Steampunk-esque visuals, first-person shooting mechanics, free-to-play sensibility, and lumbering, destructive mechs. Yes. Please.

What makes Hawken look so good isn't really the grime or the textures, but the brief splashes of color. Whether your talking about the lights flaring from a rocket, or the way lasers and explosions splash vibrancy on the environment, it's a smart, yet stylishly minimalistic design choice.

Hawken is, once again, an upcoming free-to-play game for the PC developed using Unreal Engine 3.

    Like the design, atmosphere, and you are definitely right about the way lights from engines and weapons contrast with the world. Very pretty game, never played mech games but Ill have to keep an eye on this one.
