  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR01YdFtWFI Factorio is a game about laziness. It’s about getting from point A to point B with as little effort as possible. This seemingly simple task becomes complicated, however, because point B is in space, and you need a rocket to get there. Therefore, you - an unnamed engineer stranded in an unnamed hostile world - must build from scratch a...
When the embargo for reviews for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain were lowered I waited anxiously for the reviews to be posted. I was nervous that the game I had been looking forward to since 2008 and openly since 2012 was as good as I had hoped it could be. The first review for the game I...
A Homestuck fan game, Felt Mansion follows the webcomic’s four main characters as they explore the titular mansion. The game adapts the comic’s lore in some lively and interesting ways while staying faithful to Andrew Hussie’s story and ethos. The game centers around a series of boss fights with fifteen time-manipulating members of the Felt. As you play, you...

But more than anything else, Journey is unexpected. Unexpected in that its soundtrack was nominated for a Grammy, the first video game nominated in the storied history of the prestigious Recording Academy, and unexpected that Journey would spark...
Walking through Jesuit the hallways, you might come across two quiet students staring intently at their own iPads in their hands, seemingly not interacting with each other until they simultaneously throw their hands up either in defeat or in victory. There is a great chance that they are playing FIFA '14, one of the most intense, entertaining games you...
The Order: 1886, created by Ready at Dawn has been facing harsh criticism for over two weeks now. The game was rumored to be incredibly buggy and short (About 5 hours), the latter of which would not have been an issue the game was not exclusively single-player. In addition, other reviews by notable organizations killed any of my hopes for this game. Needless...
