At the end of the first episode, our main protagonist, Max, found out the real reason behind her recurring nightmares.

Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd Review (PS3)

April 23, 2015

I discovered the popularity of Hatsune Miku when my friend sent me a video of her performance. I was amazed that people were cheering at a hologram, but it was something different. When the game was released in Japan, I saw gameplay footage and wanted to play it for myself.

The Evil Within Review (PS3)

April 20, 2015

I mean with the help of Shinji Makami, or the creator of Resident Evil the game was bound to be a success. The Evil Within automatically draws you into it’s story, with you being detective Sebastian Castellano, and getting sucked into a world of horror, murder, fright, and mystery. Trying to survive is not your only goal in this world, but keeping your two junior detectives safe is also on the agenda.

Intelligent Systems’ first New Nintendo 3DS handheld game has been published in the form of a turn-based, third-person shooter known as Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. This marks one of the first games -aside from Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and other reverse compatible games- that has utilized one of the handheld’s new control capability, specifically the c-stick.
