Submitted by BrianTT on July 17, 2012 - 10:25amCHICAGO – Forget the “Ridge Racer” you thought you knew. “Ridge Racer Unbounded” leaves behind the somewhat simplified gentility that defined its previous look and feel, embracing a high energy approach that offers destroyable environments and a harsher, more competitive edge.

Submitted by BrianTT on May 28, 2012 - 3:18pmCHICAGO – So what’s Max Payne been up to since we last saw him all those years ago? No, not since the horrendous 2008 movie.

Submitted by BrianTT on April 24, 2012 - 3:05pmCHICAGO – For those unfamiliar with the “Armored Core” series, the story of the franchise comprises the usual Mech game elements — evil corporation, slightly misguided rebels, and apocalyptic landscapes.

In other words, the story is there if you want to pay attention but it isn’t what has kept fans interested in the series for so long.
