Gameloft is known for making some pretty sweet games, but also for making some duds. However, Disney must have faith in them as the company famous for Mickey Mouse has teamed up wtih Gameloft to release a new, adventure park creating game called Disney Magic Kingdoms. To be honest, I'm surprised this hasn't existed until now. Although we don't usually cover these types of games on Games Reviews I'm making an exception for one, main reason. I am a huge Disney fan, and just recently returned from a trip to Disney World and on the Disney Magic cruise ship. We ...

Just Cause 3 is a wonderful title. No story, no problem, at least in my opinion. The first of a few DLC packs has launched for the game, and we have a copy thanks to Square Enix for review. Here is what you can expect to find in this first DLC pack.

Today, the people behind Fable Legends sent out a short press release detailing when the servers for the game will be shut down - April 13th - as well as details regarding the reimbursement for purchases made via the in-game store. From Lionhead Studios:

My early impressions of Return to PopoloCrois: A STORY OF SEASONS Fairytale were great, although I mentioned that in the first number of hours there was a heavy reliance on RPG elements and minimal farming time. Things have begun to balance out as I cross the 10 hour mark. However, fair warning: this is still an RPG game with farming elements, not the other way around.

The video game world was rocked today with the announcement that Fable Legends was being cancelled, and that there was a potential closure of Lionhead Studios all together.

When it comes to this series, my son is the expert, so most of the thoughts and opinions are his. Lets break down what we received from Warner!

If you have never had the pleasure of playing a Walking Dead game, and you have some interest in the television series, than you really need to get your hands on everything Telltale has published. While they are known for producing story centered games, the truth is that the Walking Dead series - Season 1, Season 2, and this latest miniseries looking at Michonne - are the best of their work. We recently got a code for the 1st episode of The Walking Dead: Michonne, and we really liked it!

Last week, Warner Bros. PR in Toronto reached out and let me know they had a number of Ninjago, LEGO Dimensions fun packs and character packs to send my way. They arrived yesterday, and my six year old son Logan lost his mind. Not only is Logan a big Ninjago fan, but he is also a big LEGO Dimensions fan. His excitement made me realize something: all of these toys-to-life games do a great job of mixing toys and video games, but none of them - Skylanders or Disney Infinity - can do it like LEGO.

Big releases from Nintendo are often coupled with great contests. Not only are the submissions great - and they really are, whether it's art, cosplay, or something else - but the prices are superb! Nintendo of Canada is currently running a contest in celebration of the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD, which hits retail on March 4th, and Hyrule Legends on the 3DS later this month.
