One of the greatest Adventure games is back thanks to Kickstarter. The Dreamfall franchise is one of the most beloved Adventure games of all time for a reason; amazing stories. Dreamfall has never been shy to dive deep into mature and characters, and it’s something series creator Tørnquist wants to continue. You can check out the Kickstarter here, and yes I pitched in $20. Adventure games are a dying genre, and one that I enjoy, and to finally see the end to one of the very best the genre has offered is easily worth 20 bones.
As usual, Blizzard is in top form when it comes to cinematics. They should stop screwing around and just make a full length movie. It would surely net them some serious bank and make a lot of Blizzard fans very very happy.
Valve and Xi3 have announced their partnership for the Piston, a new custom mini-form factor PC designed for Steam’s Big Picture Mode. Specs are still undisclosed but the price point being thrown around is somewhere in the $999 area. Expect more details later this year, as the Piston is currently still in prototype.

Okay, so I may not be the most hardcore gamer out there, but I still have opinions. If you’re looking for a few games that you might have overlooked because it’s not one of the more mainstream titles, look no further. For the casual gamer, I’ve got your list. These are in no particular order, just 5 games.

The end is near. You know that right? The Mayans and others foretold it ages ago. We’re right at the cusp of something. It could be cataclysmic or just a new Age, either way, I have a front row seat to it all. I’m looking at the cosmos and the cosmos is staring right back with all of the dark and grimy underbelly that its been keeping secret.
For no reason whatsoever, I fired up Dragon Age: Awakening and restarted an unfinished campaign in it. I’ve really been loving Far Cry 3, and I hate myself, so it makes sense that I’d stop playing it.
Anyway, as I was reveling in how much I love the combat in the original (PC) version of Dragon Age, something felt … off. Like, the experience just seemed so … isolated. And then it dawned on me.
I think I’m primarily an MMO player now. WHEN THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?!

Amazon has The Secret World on sale just in time to experience the end of the world event in the game. What the hell am I talking about? Remember, with The Secret World, everything is true. Every dark rumor and myth is not a just a fanciful story but real.
Those looking to get there 60fps and more out of DmC can do so this coming January, and thank the heavens with no GFWL.

Redeemable on Steam and arguable just as good, if not better than Diablo III. Depends really on who you ask, but at a cheap $10 it’s the lowest you’re going to find the loot filled RPG.
