Not ones to rest on their laurels and armed with a script penned by Bob Gale, who wrote ...
You’ve got to admit, it’s got to take balls to release a game based off of Japanese Kabuki Theater to a bunch of Americans who really have no idea what it is. If Crave and Genki thought Kabuki Warriors would usher in an era of hardcore Anime fan boys going gaga for Kabuki Theater, ...
Horror movies are notorious for having idiotic, yet maniacal killers and even more idiotic protagonists for them to slash at. Of course, there always has to be one person who ends up being less of an idiot or can just run faster than the rest. The same can pretty much be said for the survival horror genre, ...

While the adult movie industry is the most gosh darn money-makin-est industry out there, adult themes have had some rocky transitions to other mediums, namely video games. It seems that anytime an adult game is unleashed on the PC or a console, the experience is never, eeeeeeeever good. Things will either end up in one of two ways: the game is shallow as ...
If gaming innovation is what you crave, look no further than the independent developer. While larger game companies rarely venture off the beaten path and continue to give us the same kinds of games year in and year out, it’s the independent developers that are admired for bringing new, daring, and innovative ideas to the table. Look no further than ...
