Weapons are limited to a pistol, shotgun, sub-machinegun and explosives in the forms of grenades and explosive canisters. All of the weapons have a great feel to them. They are solid, destructive and very satisfying. They have girth. When firing the...

Episodic games are widely regarded as the saving grace of the gaming industry. Instead of spending years creating 20-hour-plus full-length games, developers can build five-hour chunks of a game, and release them more frequently and for a lower price...
Well, what can I say? Did I like the sound, the graphics, the gameplay and the story? I frelling loved them! Was I happy with the length of the game? For twenty bucks, yeah, I definitely was. Was I happy at the prospect of shelling out another $160...
