Happy New Year, everyone! This week has been very busy and plenty of holiday arts and crafts projects are surfacing.

This week was rather slow, with everyone distracted by the holidays! I didn’t even manage to finish my Greensleeves redstone composition in Minecraft (although the room for it is all hollowed out, thanks to the help of a friend). I’ll probably use it for another song. Ideas, anyone? Speaking of Minecraft, the documentary was released...

There’s been a lot of fuss over the recent Bioshock: Infinite cover, causing the developers to respond by including a reversible cover.

It’s a point ‘n’ click survival horror game for iOS that uses turn-based combat and cruelly sends players up against deadly traps that threaten...

All of the major gaming franchises get an iPhone adaptation and Devil May Cry 4 was no exception. While it got good reviews, it was still plagued by the same issue that face many games for iOS. Namely that it’s hard to make an action game for a platform that has no buttons! A new...
