I hope by now you have read Game Rant’s appraisal of the in-beta MMO from Sony Online Entertainment, Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures. We thought it may also be useful to inform you as to whether the game appeals to children. After all, this game is described as a family-friendly experience, suitable for all ages. So what better way to test that statement then by unleashing my five-year-old son, John, upon it, to see what would happen....

If you’ve read our review you would know that Fallout: New Vegas was an extremely rewarding RPG experience that suffered from some extremely frustrating bugs. While some were able to bare them, others weren’t so lucky and ended up putting the game down for a while or were forced out of progressing.

Namco Bandai has created a plethora of games based on the famous Gundam franchise, and with each game, the battle elements have remained the same in each installment. It has always been customary in Gundam games for players to pilot one mobile suit in battle and face off against either one or several opponents, but that now changes with the newest Gundam game titled, Gundam Memories: Memories of Battle. Memories of Battle is the first game in the long-running Gundam series that allows players to pilot three mobile suits in battle....
 Touted as one of the first titles to really push the PS3, Killzone 2 had a lot of promise. Unfortunately, developer Guerrilla Games spent too much time focusing on the visuals and, for many gamers, not enough time dialing in the controls. Thankfully, the game sold well enough to earn Guerrilla a chance to correct those mistakes and bring fans Killzone 3. While going hands-on with the beta of Killzone 3 did show improvements, it wasn’t a complete picture and did not give any clues as to how the single player campaign would play out....

Mass Effect is also quickly becoming a multimedia franchise, with books, comics, and even a planned film. BioWare’s dedication to the Mass Effect universe is one of the series’ many highlights, as they have continued to build off of the main games and extend them with oodles of DLC....
Robot Entertainment has officially announced a new tower defense game entitled Orcs Must Die! The tower defense genre is a touchy subject. On the one hand, there are probably upwards of 3,000 tower defense flash, iOS, PSP and even console games. On the other hand, as we’ve seen with a recent zombie trailer, there’s always room for innovation and re-imagining. Robot Entertainment may not be a name that rings any bells for most gamers, but a majority of this team apparently comes from the now defunct Ensemble Studios....
Ah, my favorite time of the year—no Christmas tunes or egg hunts, and no fireworks or love letters. Just a time where you don’t have to come up with excuses to go on multiple horror movie marathon or sneak in a few handfuls of candy while doing so. Halloween is an all-around perfect holiday, and it’s followed by a good runner-up in Thanksgiving. Truly there’s no better time of the year, especially for horror....
Anybody who spent any amount of time with Naughty Dog’s 2013 masterpiece, The Last of Us, knows moments of levity are few and far between.

The following ten memes are so good, they’ll even make Joel crack a smile....

The Outer Worlds has its pros and cons, but is a wonderful callback to what makes RPGs so great.

While this might be intimidating for some, it’s actually not all that complicated, especially if you head into the game with a few tips on getting the most out of it....
Final Fantasy VIII is a divisive entry into the series, and one can understand why this is the case. The placement of the game certainly doesn’t do it any favors, with it being smack dab in the middle of two fan-favorite titles in the franchise. The detractors of Final Fantasy VIII point to several aspects of the game that could’ve done with better polishing and detail, which is understandable. However, keeping all this in mind, the quality of Final Fantasy VIII is certainly undeniable....
