‘Dead Island: Riptide’ Review: An Extended Vacation

I really enjoyed the original Dead Island. It wasn’t without its flaws, but the four-player co-op, RPG elements, and buckets of gore and viscera that only the zombie genre can deliver more than made up for many of the small problems I had with it. For the bevy of zombie games we’ve seen over the… Read More

After the break I have some amazing Silent Hill fan art by Deviant Artist Chris Fulton, who has managed to capture Pyramid Head in all his gym rat glory. Now I can’t help but picture him stuffing raw eggs and protein shakes… Read More

Good Luck Making Out What’s In These New ‘A Machine For Pigs’ Screens

Thechineseroom’s swine-themed follow-up to The Dark Descent is one of my most anticipated games of the year, horror or otherwise. It looks incredible, some might even say absolutely terrifying, though you wouldn’t know it by looking at this new batch of screenshots. They’re insanely dark. I can’t tell what’s going on in most of them,… Read More

A Few Clips To Get You Excited For ‘Sir, You Are Being Hunted’

Indie tweedpunk robo-horror title Sir, You Are Being Hunted looks spectacular. It’s a quirky indie horror game with an emphasis on exploration and survival, as you’re hunted mercilessly by gangs (gaggles? murders? hornswaggles?) of robots. I really can’t wait to run for my life over a charming British countryside as robots and their robot dogs… Read More

This Fan Made ‘Dead Space’ Film Needs More Strategic Dismemberment

This live-action Dead Space film — not to be confused with our short-lived April Fool’s joke — is the work of Youtuber Eric Zaragoza. It’s short, sweet, and slickly produced, especially for a fan film. Zaragoza has also teased his next project, which could be another Dead Space film or something Dark Souls related. Personally,… Read More

If you’re fond of the unusual, than you’re going to love the cheerfully violent Happy Wheels, because this is the strangest game I’ve ever played.

Teen Slasher ‘Until Dawn’ Might Not Require A PlayStation Move After All

What’s in the box (art)?! Last August, Supermassive Games unveiled their PS3 exclusive stab at the teen slasher subgenre with Until Dawn. It looked good, except for that whole PlayStation Move bit. I have nothing against the Move, but requiring the peripheral to play the game places a pretty substantial limit on your audience. Today,… Read More
