There were incredible highs and some hilarious, technical lows, but I am just not satisfied. Sega had a presence at E3 and did nothing to announce a localization of Yakuza 5 or the HD Remasters of Yakuza 1+2. My question is simple: WHERE IS YAKUZA,SEGA? This past generation hasn’t seen

Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo are all caught in the crossfire, and even the lesser pressers from EA and Ubisoft fail to escape our snarky remarks. For all the highs, lows, and

It is just silly to have a PlayStation 3 or a Vita and not have PlayStation Plus. You essentially get a free game or two a week, plus steep discounts on a bunch of titles. I really love PlayStation Plus, but some announcements

Why, exactly, did you dislike the game? Did you legitimately hate the experience, or did user feedback and reviews taint your opinion? I recently finished Kane And Lynch: Dead Men and I’m a bit confused about the whole thing. Honestly speaking, nothing is broken in
