Grand Theft Auto V has a lot to live up to. The last installment in this franchise was arguably the best, with a likeable protagonist, a variety of missions, and a huge city for gamers to explore.

We’ve got the trailer below, as well as our take on how it all looks as of now.
It’s Black Friday, the day of the year when, having successfully indulged in too much food, we can try to burn off those calories by indulging in too much shopping. Don’t laugh; rushing through those aisles is practically an extreme sport.

If any of them are too good to resist, don’t blame us when you get stuck in the mall parking lot for three hours. Anyway, the savings are actually worth it. Take a look. . .
Well, there you have it. Whether you’re picking up something for someone on your holiday shopping list, or merely buying a few gifts for yourself (we don’t judge), Black Friday is for gamers just as much as it is for everyone else who braves the crowds on this day.

Batman: Arkham City, the long-awaited sequel to Arkham Asylum, finally got its release yesterday, October 18; as a result, don’t be surprised if all your gamer friends disappear off the face of the Earth for a while while they play through this game.

So, while you take a break from saving Gotham City, check out or roundup of all things Arkham City.
Steve Jobs passed away yesterday, as most of you probably know. This is significant, because Jobs wasn’t simply a good businessman; he was a creative genius who constantly saw the potential for applications of technology in our day-to-day lives. Although Apple never spent much time exploring the world of video games, it is impossible to pretend that Jobs’s passing means nothing to this industry.
It’s the eagerly anticipated game, and a contender for Game of the Year in many circles. But, if you’re not prepared, “Deus Ex” will hand you your head over, and over, AND OVER again. Don’t get mad: get augmented with our overview and our hand-picked best walkthroughs for this awesome game.
