When discussing your friendly neighborhood Super Soldier on last week’s SGUK podcast, I described Captain America: Super Soldier on the 3DS as a poor man’s portable Batman:Arkham Asylum. I think that is a fair comment, mainly because the fighting engine was clearly modelled on that of the successful Batman series. While it is also [...]

However, SEGA presented me with two titles that look like they’re worth the time and money to download. So keep [...]

The only computer I have is a MacBook, so for the most part, computer gaming is foreign to me these days. I am a true console gamer. I like to kick up my feet on the couch and enjoy a large screen with surround sound and my favorite beverage next to me with nothing more [...]

In the past week and a half, I’ve been bouncing back and forth in the community about my love for older gaming titles (retro) and how I really wish companies wouldn’t have jumped to change so much of my favorites. I mean, why do it? Is it just about proving that you can keep current [...]
