I love when great games are born from mods. Take Day Z for example, originally a mod for Arma II and is now getting its own standalone title because of its popularity. Cry of Fear is a mod of Half Life 1 but, unlike Day Z, it has its own complete style. What I mean by that is Team Psykskallar, the developers of the game, only used the Half Life source engine and basic code to make Cry of Fear. Everything else in the game (textures, sounds, models) are all made exclusively by Team Psykskallar making the game a very unique experience. If no one told me, I would ...

It's the final day of the GoG sale, so pull out your while and rebuy some of those Good Old Games. Great GoG deals include Fez at 50% off.

Final Fantasy VII has finally made its way to Steam. For those that want to add one of the greatest RPGs of all time to their library, now's the chance.

The Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition for PC was one of the worst kept gaming secrets of this year. Now, however, it’s out and it’s available to buy from Steam. Available for £24.99, the Komplete Edition includes everything that was released for the game – all the extra kostumes and kharacters are available right from the base game. There’s also leaderboards and achievements available from the official Mortal Kombat website, so get in quick if you want to pretend you’re awesome…

Those of you that saw the movie Indie Game: The Movie which follows the development stages of Fez and Super Meat Boy would be forgiven for thinking very little money actually went into making Fez. A PC, desk, chair, some pizza and some software shouldn't run up too high of a bill right? Of course there are more to take into consideration naturally but if a Tweet by the outspoken developer Phil Fish is to believed, the end cost for bringing Fez to life is over half a million.

Duke Nukem is once again coming to Steam. Expect Duke Nukem, Duke Nukem 2 and Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project to be available very soon.

Excited to play the next chapter in the award winning The Walking Dead series by TellTale Games? Well you won't have to wait long.

It seems like every game they release these days calls itself a 'survival' game. How many of them actually are? To me, if you are calling a game a survival game, that implies consequence. If you are playing a game and the only consequence of failing to survive is that you have to go back to the last checkpoint, then what you are playing is not a true survival game, in my opinion. I can say one thing with absolute certainty: Don't Starve is a survival game.

High Moon Studios, most notable for their Transformers titles, have taken it upon themselves to finally give Deadpool, Marvel's infamous antihero, a starring role in his very own video game. It's a game that certainly captures the redeeming (and some not so redeeming) qualities of the crazed mercenary, but suffers from design decisions that, while heavy on “brakkabrakka!”, are dated and lack style. Somebody Get This Guy a Straitjacket!

This week's new releases are severely lacking especially for the 2 main consoles, but Limbo comes to iOS on Wednesday so that kind of makes up for the big release short comings. The popular indie game is accompanied by some minor, small releases but hey, it's July.
