World War Z by developer ... more.

For those of you who recall my previous review for RIOT: Civil Unrest, know that I was taken by surprise, by a game that ended up being different from what I had originally imagined.  I didn't think another game could possibly raise the bar like that, but A Plague Tale: Innocence by Focus Home Interactive did just that; and even more so. APT: I puts you in the midst of 14th century Black P... more.

While it doesn't happen very often, just recently I came across a game that caught me completely off-guard.  As I was thinking it was going to be one certain way, it instead threw me a huge curveball, totally by surprise.  And in case anyone was wondering, "RIOT:  Civil Unrest" from Merge Games Ltd. is this particular game. R: CU is a RTS of history lesson proportions, that puts ... more.

Hello one and all, my fellow gamers.  So I have an interesting question to ask all of you.  Have you ever felt like you have played a particular game -- or type of game -- before, but yet there is something different about it at the same time, that it adds a level of uniqueness to it?  That's what Curve Digital's entry, "Smoke And Sacrifice", had me feeling…in a good way, naturall... more.
