The Opinionator: 10 Million…

The Opinionator: 10 Million… …is not the amount of reviews I will write for Gamer Codex because let’s be honest with the amount of writing I do I would never get that done and also thankfully is not the price point of this game.  No the game is actually titled 10000000 or more simply put […]

Fuse Set for International Release in May

EA’s international plans are ever in effect, as their recent dealings with Insomniac Games indicate.  As it would seem, this alliance has seen fit to actually pay-off sooner rather than later, as the publisher-developer combo intend to release upcoming third-person shooter Fuse worldwide in May.  Fuse, for those not in the know, is Insomniac’s latest […]

Metal Gear Solid 3 HD

Alright, let me set the record straight: if Guns of the Patriots had never existed, then Metal Gear Solid 3 would not only have been the best Metal Gear game I’ve ever reviewed, but it also would have gone on my “Top Ten Greatest Games” list.  In hindsight, I probably should have gone back to […]

Dead Space 3’s Post-Ending DLC Launches

Warning: Minor spoiler.  Do not venture forth if you are concerned about enjoying Dead Space 3.  Last year, there was a fuss made over the DLC for Asura’s Wrath.  Most of the content was fine, and actually seemed to add to the experience.  However, the DLC pack containing what Capcom advertised as the “True Ending” […]

Thief Returning to PC (and coming to Next-Gen)

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the beloved stealth franchise is finally returning… and it doesn’t look like a diminishing return, either.  Thief, the upcoming fourth instalment in the Thief series, will be coming back to PC, as well as making an appearance on next-generation consoles. Labelled as a “reinvention of a franchise”, Thief will apparently still […]

Spec Ops: The Line

Trivia: -Spec Ops: The Line is actually the ninth instalment in its series, reviving the series after a decade of dormancy -While the game’s writer Walt Williams claimed the story had many influences, the greatest of note was Joseph Conrad’s famed novella Heart of Darkness – coincidentally the inspiration for Francis Ford Coppola’s award-winning film […]
