Review: Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes

Fallen Review: Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes

From the original, buggy release of War Of Magic, the universe of Elemental has seen some turmoil.  Seemingly rescued with a critically acclaimed new release of Fallen Enchantress last Fall, things are certainly looking brighter.  Not satisfied with the myriad of accolades and acclaim Fallen Enchantress has garnered, Stardock has looked deep into their crystal ball and overhauled the game.  That final, mystical product, Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes is finally here and we’ll let you know if it’s as magical as its name implies.

Review: ShootMania Storm

by Eric Bouchard

ShootMania Main Review: ShootMania Storm

Online shooters have evolved a lot over the last several years. From different classes to unlock-able perks and weapons, they have grown to a point where being competitive means spending a decent amount of time learning the classes and unlocking the extras. The problem with this evolution is sometimes you just want to jump into a game and shoot people without having to worry about other people having an advantage because they have been playing it for a while.

If that describes you, then Nadeo, the team behind TrackMania, may have the answer for you with its newest game ShootMania Storm. The question is, in the crowded world of online shooters, does ShootMania manage to make a name for itself, or will it get lost in the shuffle?

Review: Dead Island – Riptide

by Chris Maeurer

riptidecoverphoto Review: Dead Island Riptide

In 2011, Dead Island released during the crowded Fall season.  None was more skeptical than me about the game.  I was sick of zombie games, and I had no belief that the final product would be as gripping as its viral reveal trailer.  I simply couldn’t have been more wrong, and I became a fan of the franchise after picking it up during Steam’s Halloween sale that same October.  Two years later, Dead Island: Riptide released, and I was as frenzied as the zombie horde to give it a go.  Does it stack up to the original, or is this new entry as mindless as the zombies in the game?
