Super Robot Wars 30 – Review

Gundam and mecha anime have never really been my thing. I’ve always preferred Shounen. However, Zoids was one of my favorite anime growing up, so I thought I’d give Super Robot Wars 30 a chance. If you are not from Japan you may have never heard of Super Robot Wars.

Humankind – Review

I’ll admit, I haven’t played too many 4x games in the past. Sure, I’ve played a few Real-Time strategy games, and the occasional Turn-Based game, and sure, the idea of taking over the world with a giant army or through economics and sounded appealing, but I found myself often struggling

Empire Of Sin – Review

Bladed Fury – Review

‘Bladed Fury’ published and developed by NEXT Studios (another Tencent studio might I add), is certainly not inventing the wheel but with its simplistic hack and slash qualities and manageable RPG elements is certainly a dang good time.
