Review: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (PC)

The whack-a-doodle nonsense of the Metal Gear universe is delivered by Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Within the first 30 or 45 minutes, cyborg protagonist Raiden guts a towering Metal Gear then "befriends" a (sadly underutilized) robot dog. Why? There's something about child soldiers, private military contractors, Raiden's past life as "Jack the Ripper" and in all likelihood a Ronco product that slices, dices, and minces.

Weekly Checkpoint 55 - Xbox One, Konami, and More...

Jeff rounds up the week that was in game news discussing more Xbox One drama to emerge this week, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow coming to PC, Keifer Sutherland taking over the role of Solid Snake in the West, and an interesting new mod for Neverwinter Nights 2 that recreates the whole of the original Baldur's Gate.  Give it a listen. ^_^
