Can we reasonably separate how a game plays mechanically from the themes and imagery depicted therein? This exploration of the seemingly sexist representation of women in Skullgirls takes a deeper look at the question.

Despite being another fighting game, playing Skullgirls is like playing a whole new machine when it comes to the most basic of all fighting game skills: comboing. What makes it so different and what should you know to conquer it?

Remember those days as a little kid where you would put the quarter into those funny looking bubble machines and out would come a random little toy in a plastic capsule? That's the driving motivation behind playing Mass Effect 3 for me.

Young associates with comic book-fueled delusions looking to enter the war zone between the Bats and Jokers may very well enter combat with experience in games like Call of Duty. Time to forget everything you know, because the Gotham City Impostors roll a different way!

In retrospect, Oblivion was a good game, but it has that classic Bethesda feel of sterility. Skyrim, on the other hand, feels much more improved and, dare I say it? Alive.

I'm 10 years late to 3rd Strike. I have a lot of ground to cover if I want to be competent at this game. First in my journey through 3rd Strike: pick a main who I will learn everything about so that I can start learning how to fight.

Brink lost me at launch with bad lag and cumbersome gameplay mechanics. Does Agents of Change bring me back? No, but at least I tried.

Things aren't looking good for the blue bomber. First Mega Man Universe gets cancelled, now Legends 3 got the ax. Is there any hope left for good old Rockman?

For the longest time, I've observed Terraria from the outside as a Minecrafter. My friend was the same but he recently took the plunge. So I decided to try it too. So how is this game different from Minecraft?

If you haven't seen Cartoon Network's Regular Show, you're really missing out on a cartoon that's practically a love letter to classic 8-bit games.
