Evolution of gaming online Why does some games work online and others not? Games online have evolved from smaller flash games to massive social worlds. Being social online is not something new, and now the trends are moving more towards combining this with gaming. The biggest type today is the MMO genre, especially the MMORPG’s like WoW. Another variation of MMO is online poker and that too have evolved to a massive entertainment hobby online. Opposite to WoW, poker can be played at many rooms and therefore a recommendation is to first seek out the best poker room that suits your style.

Retro: Gitaroo Man

This review originally appeared on ReviewCenter.com in 2002. It scored a 9.1 at the time. By Carlos McElfish KOEI is most widely known for kicking out strategy games. So the last thing this reviewer was expecting from them was an extremely entertaining music/rhythm game. KOEI has managed to not only avoid the common pitfalls of breaking into a new... [Read more]

Retro: Fatal Frame

This review originally appeared on Reviewcenter.com in 2002. For us, it all started with The 7th Guest for the PC. We were indescribably intrigued by this game at the time. The ability to journey through a beautifully rendered haunted mansion (as good as you could pre-render n 1993) via a first person perspective was something that, at the time,... [Read more]
