Yesterday, Microsoft announced that it had acquired the rights to the Gears of War franchise from Epic Games.  The next installment will be an Xbox One exclusive made by Black Tusk Studios.  But Rod Fergusson, formerly of Epic Games, will be one of the people overseeing the project.  One must ask the question, however, how will this ownership change affect the franchise?  Gears of War: Judgment sold noticeably less copies compared to the other games in the series a...

For those of you that enjoy the thrill of taking up the blade and rising to the call of being a fearless hero to a kingdom in need - I doubt the Legend of Zelda games need an introduction. For those of you that may not be fully familiar with this game series, let me tell you that it is truly a masterpiece of its genre and generations. With a beautiful (and at times cliche) story driving the game play, players are faced with nearly endless adventure and demanding puzzles... Read The Full Article

A nice new application has made its way to the Nintendo eShop for the 3DS - YouTube. In this day, that name needs no explanation. This application is a free download and seems to expose the entire world of YouTube to your handheld gaming device. Personally, I like this application a lot. Running on my simple home network's wireless, I can quickly pull up a video and watch it with no hassle. It seems like the app does a great job of preventing lag or video disruption...

These simple visual changes helps give us a more natural feel to the... Read The Full Article
