Following the success of Team Fortress 2 many games have shoe-horned in a class system to appeal to that audience, but if there’s one game that suits it, it’s Worms. Worms was TF2 before Team Fortress knew what it was. It’s light-hearted, fast paced (for a turn based game), and full of choice. Perhaps too much choice, you could pick any weapon...

It’s been another quiet few weeks with the releases, but at least gamers are looking for new blood to shed. CD Projekt Red’s Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition made its way to the Xbox 360. It won big, debuting at the #1 spot the week of its release. Modern Warfare 3, Just Dance 3, and Kinect Star Wars are still battling for spots within the Top 10, and...

Who doesn’t like a good BBQ? I mean, the smell of food on the grill something that just makes my mouth water, just thinking of that first bite into the food. Of course, things work a little differently at the Mason McCready household, as they talk about their latest crime exploits while cooking up some grub. These exploits seem to have attracted an...
