Dustforce Review
In the PC title Dustforce by Hitbox Team it's up to you to clean up the world...make that four worlds. Specifically, a Forest, Mansion, City and Laboratory. The dirt and flith is so bad that it's starting to put up a fight and it's up to you to fight back as one of four super-parkor hopping janitors. You use various skills including leaps, air jumps, dashes, and combo attacks to clean as much of the world as you can with as much finesse as possible.

Anomaly: Warzone Earth Review
Anomaly: Warzone Earth takes the concept of tower defense and flips it upside down, putting the player in charge of the offensive force. Does it have what it takes to carve out a niche in this saturated genre?

Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2 Review
I'm sure that we've seen our share of parodies of the game industry. But in NIS's new game Hyperdimention Neptuna Mk.2, the developer goes one step further and turns the industry into a parody world that has participating companies represented as cute moe girls. Are video game companies in the form of anime girls a good itdea for a game or is NIS just taking advantage of otaku by just filling the game with cute moe girls?

Jamestown: Legend of the Lost Colony Review
You know that point in history when we discovered America then fought in the Interstellar War? Yeah, that was pretty cool. Developers Final Form Games have created a colorful recreation of that war and named it Jamestown. Based upon the British colony of the same name, "Jamestown: Legend of the Lost Colony" is a steampunk styled vertical shoot'em up that gives plenty of variety while offering a very tough experience that will keep fans of the franchise busy for a while.

Sine Mora Review
Sine Mora is a side scrolling shoot'em up title that borrows heavily from past titles in the genre such as the cult classic Einhander. The premise involves war torn characters battling a bigger threat as you shoot down enemies and gigantic bosses in your little plane. Although at its core it's a shoot'em up game, the title makes heavy use of time travel and time altering mechanics in both its gameplay and story which creates a strong interaction between the two elements.

The Binding of Isaac Review
When was the last time you played a game that blew you away with craziness? It’s been a while? The Binding of Isaac is easily one of the craziest games that I’ve played with some of the most simple yet incredible gameplay I’ve seen. I’m not going to hide how much I like this game before getting into the body of the review because it’s that damn good!

Designed to be played with either Playstation Move or a SixAxis controller, Datura begins with players waking up in a strange forest following a confusing beginning in the back of an ambulance. Featuring puzzle-solving and exploration gameplay in a similar vein to the Myst series, is Datura a trip you should go on?
