    The very first trailer for the forthcoming Star Wars: Battlefront has been released into the wild and it features some truly breathtaking graphics.

  • Mortal Kombat X Review – Flawless Victory, Almost

    The Mortal Kombat franchise may have gone veering wildly into the Woods of Crappiness for a while there but Netherealm finally brought the fighter back onto the right path with Mortal Kombat 9, a blisteringly fun game that I utterly adored.
