Making a Mario game is hard!
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=in6RZzdGki8&fs=1&hl=en_US] I’ve posted about some knockoff Mario related things over the months we’ve existed. You know, Super Mario Crossover and Super Mario Bros. X. You might remember the first, and not remember the second. Well, now here’s Infinite Adaptive Mario,

VVVVVV on Steam for $5
If you asked me what my game of the year 2010 was, there would be no hesitation. VVVVVV is possibly the best 2-D platformer I’ve ever played, and a game that was completely worth every cent of the $15 I

Proceed to be excited about Bastion
When I said there was nothing going on today that was before I read Giant Bomb’s coverage of Bastion. Namely, watched the video of Bastion played at PAX on the same page. Go do so. Right now. This is shameless

Nothing to post so here's Freeman's Mind

Dungeon Siege 3 sure looks like a game

Obsidian, developers of lots of bug heavy but brilliantly storied adventures, have been put in a position where they’re developing a game that doesn’t require a lot of technical flourish,

Duke Nukem Forever exists.
This is the most flabbergasting thing to ever happen in the history of the world. Gearbox, a company that didn’t exist when Duke Nukem Forever was announced, are making the game, and it exists, and people have played it. There

Indie RPG Bastion not looking hollow

Recettear to be on Steam
On a scale of one to internet sensation, Recettear is probably a ten. The item shop slash indie Japanese RPG captured many a heart with its demo, which gave us a pretty big look at the game. Enough of a

Review: Dead Rising: Case Zero
I had very mixed feelings about the original Dead Rising. On one hand, I loved. I loved it with a visceral, real love reserved for romance novels, described with gratuitous synonyms for thrusting and grinding. In terms of raw content,
