Ten Older Elements That Should Come Back in the Next Tomb Raider
I have strange feelings about the Tomb Raider reboot. On the one hand, it is a very well-done action adventure game. It strikes a nice balance between combat and exploration and does both well.

My Handheld Game of the Year
The truth is this might as well be my Vita Game of the Year Award. I have still not picked up a 3DS unfortunately nor have I played any new PSP or DS games this year. I do love the Vita though. Portable hardware doesn’t get any better than it. And I have played quite … Continue reading »
