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...

Rayman Origins Is Making Money For Ubisoft

Posted on Wednesday, February 15 @ 20:33:08 Eastern by

Last years critical darling, Rayman Origins is getting ported to every platform under the sun. It's already on PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii. It's on the new PlayStation Vita. It's going to be on the 3DS and PC soon too! When do I get it on my iPhone?

Regardless of how many platforms the game is available on, Ubisoft has clarified that the game is making money for the company. During an investor conference call, CFO for Ubisoft Alain Martinez stated:

Two successes more than compensated for the performance of Rayman Origins, TinTin, and the non-dance Kinect games. We believe Rayman Origins, which is rated 89 percent on Metacritic with enthusiast reviews and is already profitable, has the capacity to become a long-term seller for the company.

Surely the fact that the game is already dotting "Best Games You Haven't Played" lists will help drive sales in the future. Let's hope it doesn't mean that the gorgeous 2D art and classic gameplay won't see a sequel or even a new title altogether.

    Yes! I loved Rayman: Origins on my PS3! I still do, in fact! My roommate and I got together to do some cooperative platforming on it some time ago, and we had a blast punching and kicking each other around in the game. Especially during the loading screens.

    Yes, this game allows you to beat each other up for around 2 seconds each time you select a level, HOW is that not awesome?

    Rayman Origins is a GREAT platformer, it frustrates me sometimes but it kept me glued whenever I played it

    No love lost here either. It's a marvellous game in its own right, made even more fabulous by how unexpected it was.
