Expect to read more about Metro: Last Light in the coming days. As we got a review copy for it, we can take a brief look at some features that may – or may not – disappoint PC gamers.

We’ve been getting lately a lot of indie titles, as well as titles that are not pushing the graphical or tech boundaries of the PC platform. Naturally, a Performance Analysis on such titles would be a waste of time, however we really want to feature most – if not all – of these games. Therefore, we’re kicking off a new column today. For all indie and low-budget titles we get, we’ll be posting the first hour walkthrough. This will be enough to give you an idea of the game. Of course, this one hour does not represent the full product, but it’s enough – in our opinion – to make players decide whether they’ll purchase it or not. So, enjoy today an one hour walkthrough of Mars: War Logs, a third-person game from Spiders Studio! Continue reading DSOGaming – Mars: War Logs – First Hour Walkthrough→

You know, when a good game comes out, we tend to appreciate it for several factors ranging from graphics, gameplay to music… However, there seems to be one aspect most overlook, and that is the costume design in games. Granted, that some games don’t have anything unique to offer in terms of costume design, but some are tremendously outstanding. Below is a personal list of my favourite costume design in videogames this gen. In no particular order of course. Continue reading User’s Articles: Games With Great Costume Designs→
