After several years spent in the competitive MMO titles that simply were not able to love one reason or another, by the return of the “king” I was surprised how much more it becomes apparent that the WoW product of the last decade. I am not referring specifically to graphics and aesthetics that I actually still like for bright colors and charming tone, but mainly on prehistoric, but also crucial physics struggle which forms the basis of gameplay.

Personally I’m not a fan of indie game Limbo. I appreciate what it sought to achieve, but I do not recognize it as something more than just an experiment. First of all, I never really liked the separation of what is at stake and the description of what the story should be.

When it comes to planning and tactics, Total War and Warhammer as if they were created to merge into a single unit as both franchises have a very strong strategic roots. Thanks to Sega, the merger had taken place with the result that both worlds get breath of fresh air on a virtual strategic field, and because of the development studio with an impressive portfolio, the result is more than satisfactory. Since the first announcement of Total War: Warhammer, it was clear what it would be the basis of…

Point and click adventures are not what they used to be. Chances are that some of our readers today do not know it, but in the early nineties this genre was one of the most popular in the world of video games. Lucas Arts and Sierra Games through these ten years have ruled the gaming scene similar to today ruled by Activision and Electronic Arts, except that people actually like them. As the years pass by, technically impressive genres have overcome adventures with a transition into the new millennium…
