This is it. The moment I finished up the campaign for Bioshock: Infiinte, I spoke those words aloud to myself. It's been a crazy generation of console gaming since the Xbox 360 first hit store shelves almost eight years ago, and in that time we've seen a lot of amazing accomplishments.

Details and speculation on what that may be await after the jump... Read More →

Chances are, you've already read our editorial on gaming in 2012 (you did, right?) Because, with that article, you can probably assume that we looked down on 2012 overall, and found it to be a mediocre year for video games. But even then, there's always diamond in the roughs, and 2012 was no expectations. There were a handful of games in particular that we feel in love with in 2012 and, to best celebrate them, our own Matthew Legarreta and Jared Russo have gotten together to dish out their ten favorite games of the year. We each chose five games and, after much debate, settled on one overall Game of the Year. Check out the nominees and the overall winner after the jump... Read More →
