What were playing In response to an increase in carjackings and violent crime in Chicago, an Illinois legislator is looking to ban the sale of all violent video games in the state. Arcade classic Frogger will become a game show. A game show about dodging high-speed traffic? What could possibly go wrong? And rapper Soulja Boy is (again) attempting to introduce (another) console into a market that still 100% remembers his rebranded Chinese consoles from 2018. So, what are you playing? Russell...

But what I find strangest of all about it is that its story isnt more common. But I dont recall anything like Cyberpunk 2077 before. I dont recall a major platform holder ever banishing a AAA title from its storefront because the game...

Written by Eric Hauter on 1/21/2021 for PC   Max Mraz, the lone developer of Ocean’s Heart – a new Zelda-like today released on Steam – is something of a creative genius. Though Mraz seems to be far too nice to refer to himself in those terms, just listening to him talk, one gets the feeling that they are in the presence of a towering, almost intimidating, artistic mind.

Oceans Heart Review (PC) very good OS: Windows 7 (64bit) RECOMMENDED: OS: Windows 7 (64bit) Gamepad support: Boomerang a weird aardvark to stop him from throwing stones, use a sword to cut down a skeleton bird, drop a bomb hoping that it will trip up a fast and charging snail. Once the screen is cleared spend some time gathering resources and then eating apples to regain health. Maybe gain some insight about the next boss that needs to be vanquished or another puzzle that needs to be solve...
