Leave a Comment
With Dynasty Warriors games being huge system sellers in Japan, it’s safe to say that developer/publisher Koei has everything sewn up in the home country.

Once in a long while, there’s a game that leaves an indelible impression on your mind. It’s the type of game that will stay with you for years to come — so vivid, that you can imagine what the game was like years after without having to have ever replayed it. Needless to say, Escape […]

Ultimate cross-over game is ultimate: Card Sagas Wars
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 |

Holy Jimminy Soulja-Boy Christmas. Now this project is totally bananas, and not just because it features Master Chief doing a multi-hit super combo on Mega Man X. What’s really insane is that Card Sagas Wars, a presumably fan made game, actually looks good. With the exception of a few crappy backgrounds, this thing looks even […]

Frontlines: Fuel of War multiplayer demo released on Xbox Live

If the single-player demo for Frontlines: Fuel of War left a bad taste in your mouth, don’t let that discourage you from trying out the game’s multiplayer demo that’s up on the Xbox Live Marketplace right now.
As far as I’m concerned, you can’t compare the demos to one another — they’re like two totally seperate […]

[Save the Robot is a biweekly column from Chris Dahlen crafted specially for GameSetWatch, dealing with gaming as pop culture and cult media.]
It’s periodically chic in Hollywood to worry about the fate of Africa. But in the games biz, we’d rather blow the whole place up. At last fall’s Penny Arcade Expo, I […]
