Video games tend to evolve and grow with time, while this means bigger budgets and ultimately better games, it also means that creativity and unique titles don’t get a chance to shine much, unless they are lower budget titles. Most game companies are too large, and games are too expensive to risk anything that isn’t proven. So it came as a surprise that Activision allowed Raven Software to create a FPS that wasn’t Call of Duty: 5 Modern Warfare 3, World War 2: The second day from the eyes of a post man working in France (Special Edition) Remake. As much as I would love to play the role of a postman during WW2, I’m glad they took a chance on a new IP and gave us Singularity, available for the PS3, PC and Xbox 360.

Slippery when WET
September 23rd, 2009
Brian Jones Awhile back they made a game out of the hard boiled two fisted John Wu hero named Detective Tequila, who when diving into fruit carts or sliding down ramps could enter Tequila time where for some strange reason and completely opposite of all my previous “Tequila times” he would move faster Read More
