Street Fighter IV Video Game Review

Written by Matteo89 on 24th February, 2009

After hearing about the upcoming release of a new Street Fighter game, I was not sure if it could contend with other next-gen fighting titles such as Dead or Alive. After buying the game on Friday I soon released that not only does it compete, but it’s the best.

MMO’s Can’t Compete With World of Warcraft

However, it has gone down hill slightly. In January, Funcom, announced that they would be shutting down over half of the Conan servers, and recently, there have been rumors that Conan’s subscriber level…

Written by Scrooby on 21st February, 2009

With the release of a couple of big games set for release next week, Halo Wars and Killzone 2. I thought this post would be useful to some people. I’ll start with Halo Wars I guess. Halo Wars is a real time strategy game based in the time before the first Halo game. Halo Wars is only on the Xbox 360, and if you haven’t yet, you can download the Halo Wars demo for free just to give it a try.
