Mega Man 10 Review

Many Mega Man fans will remember how Mega Man 9's difficulty and cheap deaths made it a game that only appealed to seasoned veterans who had been with the series from the beginning. A year and a half later Mega Man 10 has been released and it looks to gain a wider audience by toning it down a bit in certain areas while still pleasing its loyal followers. The story here is simple.

Assassin’s Creed 2: Battle of Forli DLC Review

For those of you who have completed Assassin's Creed 2 you might remember that during your journey you were desynchronized immediately after Sequence 11. When you were able to access the memories once again you were thrown ahead into Sequence 14 with no clue as to what had taken place in between or why your character started sporting a beard. The Battle of Forli DLC fills in part of the gap by adding Sequence 12, composed of 6 new memories, back to the story. This is one of two sequences that was left out of the retail copy in order to comply with the set release date of November 20th.

A tale of love, bravery, and hope are few of the various themes you will find in the story of White Knight Chronicles.
