If you’ve read literally any review ofBorderlands 2yet (well, except maybethisone), then you already know the game is shaping up to be one of this year’s best. An absurdly compelling narrative combined with a host of minor tweaks have made believers out of those who despised the first one, and since I’d planned on flying through the game ANYWAY when it came out, I figured hey – may as well review it....
Animals sure are unlucky in Far Cry Here I was all prepared to say that I didn’t feel like I’d be missing much by not pre-orderingFar Cry 4and then they go andharpoon a bear. It’s not fair, damn it. It’s just not fair! Pre-orders also come with three exclusive missions featuring Hurk, who I’m only now learning was a character inFar Cry 3, too (in a DLC pack). Huh. He seems … annoying....

No easy buckets at the end of the world Defend the Houseputs on a post-apocalyptic basketball clinic in this short video. With some intricate set-ups, nerves of steel, and a little help from his friend Jet, this wastelander manages to finagleFallout 4‘s clumsy physics engine to sink some mind-boggling baskets. Some might say this is a waste of time, but it seems like an excellent survival strategy to me. Getting cranked out of your mind on performance enhancing drugs and mastering trick shots seems like the perfect to stave off the nihilistic hopelessness and inevitable suicidal depression of living in the wastelands....

What is wrong with people? That Dragon, Canceris a deeply personal and emotional experience that tells the real-life story of one family’s experience dealing with cancer taking one of their children from them at a very young age.

An emotional roller coaster unlike any game I’ve played before, but certainly not perfect as noted by Laura Kate Dale inher reviewwhere she called the game “a beautifully inconsistent experience....
