31 Dec 2008 10:14:00 PST

Written by Administrator

If you look at how sequels have been for the past year (MGS4, GTA4, CoD4, Gears of War 2, etc.), they've more than proven that not all sequels suck donkey balls - given that the devs deliver in their promise to bring a game that's "bigger, more polished, and...

BioShock DLC Adds A Lot But Loses Something Important

07 Nov 2008 18:30:00 PST

Written by AJ Glasser
