SimCity 2013 - Review

NOTE: This review was written by The Advanced Gamer, another site we are collaborating with.

Everyone has played Sim something if you ever had a PC in your life. SimCity started it all. If you liked SimCity I-IV then you will love SimCity V. Maybe.

You play the god-like mayor of the city of your dreams. You design it literally from the ground up. Build streets, zone residential commercial or industrial areas.

BioShock Infinite - Review

NOTE: This review was written by The Advanced Gamer, another site we are collaborating with.

Simply put this game is nearly perfect.

Most likely nothing will ever replace the fear and uneasiness you felt from Bioshock. The claustrophobia of being in a giant underwater tomb named Rapture, the haunting score pulling almost directly at your soul. Bioshock 2 increased that fear tenfold as you saw what happened when society completely breaks down, and the chaos of humanity is unleashed.  This is not Bioshock 3, you will not have those kinds of feelings here, in fact quite the opposite.

Tomb Raider - Review (Single Player)

Every story has a beginning. Every person has a moment that defines who they are. The question is how will you let such events change you? That is the focus of Tomb Raider. What starts as a journey to find a missing island turns into an ordeal that shapes Lara Croft from a green archeologist into a fearless adventurer.

All Stories Have a Beginning

Lara Croft has ventured all over the world in search of ancient treasures. She has been to Nevada, Egypt, Atlantis, Tibet and the Arctic Sea. She has fought beings with power beyond that of mortal understanding. But what makes a person capable of such feats? Where does one get the strength of will to keep going against odds that would make a lesser, and arguably saner, person run?

StarCraft 2 - Special Edition

I had fallen in love with the StarCraft series when it first came out while I was in high school. I remember the rush of beating a level and the excitement of progressing the story. I also remember the fun challenges I gave myself (can I deplete all the resources before I destroy the enemy? Can I destroy the enemies with just the race’s workers?) that would cause me then play the game over and over. When StarCraft 2 Wings of Liberty was announced, I was insanely excited. My (then) boyfriend got me the game and I beat it in 3 days. During an Anime Convention. I don’t remember much of that convention. I just remember the excitement of seeing the characters again, the heightened graphics and the continuation of the story.
