Resident Evil has been throughout the years the reference of Survival Horror. The release of the “Rebirth” version on Gamecube in 2002 was successful in remaking this masterpiece (a Metacritic average score of 91/100), will this HD port to new generation consoles have the same impact?

by Nazih Fareson June 26, 2014
Valiant Hearts: The Great War is the second non-Rayman project to use Ubisoft quirky UbiArt Framework, after the beautiful but soporific Child of Light.

by Nazih Fareson June 10, 2013
Gamers are really demanding! This is not really something we just learned. But it’s getting worse with time, as gamers become more critical, more experienced, and harder to please.

The Console War: Just Stop It Already

by Nazih Fareson May 29, 2013
PlayStation 4 is better… Xbox One is stronger… The Wii U has better games… I’m tired of reading these comments flooding the internet. Same trend, same opinion.
