With the upcoming release of Assassin's Creed III, we take a look at other historical time periods suitable for video games.

I enjoyed Resident Evil 6 quite a bit, despite what others criticized as
too-close-for-comfort camera positioning. I’m comfortable with the
camera’s current distance, but there are a few reasons I’m excited to

I hope more silent protagonists emerge, conveying their personalities only through simple phrases, sounds, and expressions.

Borderlands Legends is another game to go the iOS route, how do you feel about it?

It’s been seven years since the last entry, Future Perfect. That’s about seven years too long.

In this video feature, Insomniac Games' CEO Ted Price talks about the studio's first two landmark games.

A few months ago we asked readers what video game villain they would like to play as. Here are some of their responses.

BioShock Infinite's new Beast of America trailer has been revealed. To put it in context, take a look at the game's development timeline.

The comedian and impressionist joins us for a look back at the forgotten Genesis platformer.

We will have a 24 hour gaming marathon for charity, attempt to teach a baby how to walk, bartend, and pour even more hours into XCOM and Pokémon.  

BioWare has confirmed that Shepard won’t appear in future Mass Effect games. Now, at the end of Shepard's journey in games, I  look back on Mass Effect and what the commander meant to me.
