Review: Call of Juarez: The Cartel

Call of Juarez: The Cartel from Techland and published by Ubisoft departs from the series’ western themes to transplant the player into a more contemporary setting of present day Mexico and Los Angeles, USA in this cinematic shoot-’em-up game.

Review: Metroid – Other M

The latest game in the long-running Metroid series is finally out, and for the first time it’s been created by Team Ninja of Ninja Gaiden fame.
