God Mode – PC Review
For a $10 game, God Mode might be worth the price of admission. The ruined temples and cities are nicely detailed, the creature design is superb, the controls are tight and the fast-paced action can be addictive. However, even if one is … Continue reading

Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate – Wii U Review
