Month in Review - April
Looks like it’s that time of the month again! See everything that we've been up to and catch up on anything you may have missed.
This was a HUGE month for fans of Bandai Namco. A release window for Tales of Zesteria that a good amount of us are fans of has come to light...
Nekro - PC Preview
Nekro, by darkForge games, is a birds eye view action RPG game that is presently in Early Access status on Steam. Back in 2013, Nekro achieved their Kickstarter goals and began development, and have dedicated what seems to be a rather baffling amount of time and effort...
Another look at the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians
Not much to say here - we stumbled onto this Gamestop exclusive Halo 5 trailer and thought we would share with the rest of the class.

Dungeons & Dragons - Elemental Evil: Princes of the Apocalypse - Tabletop and Board Games Review
It has been a little while since our last Dungeons & Dragons review. We have covered just about everything from the Next/5th age set that has been released, including even the DM screen. It looks like this will be a busy year for the team at Wizards of the Coast, but this...
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 - Retro Reflections
The city of Baldur’s Gate is in peril again and you decide to defend it. You become member of the Harpers, a secret organization that protects the Realms, and face the Zentarim, a wealthy, ambitious group with supernatural allies. Your final opponent is a vampire, who schemes...
Fallen: A2P Protocol - PC Preview
When I first saw Fallen: A2P Protocol I was immediately interested in the title. After all it is an isometric, 3D squad-based tactical strategy game set in a post-apocalyptic Mad Max-style world so what is there not to like? Leading your caravan through the decrepit wasteland,...
Albedo: Eyes from Outer Space - PC Review
I really had no idea what to expect from this title, with its B themed science fiction cover image to the bright neon glow throughout much of the title screen. This unusual title merges puzzle solving with shooting mechanics in a way that should appeal to science fiction fans,...
Idea Factory has a lot to talk about soon
Idea Factory has been turning out some of my favorite games of late, and their upcoming slate of games is promising sounding!
...
Legends of Eisenwald - PC Preview
Legends of Eisenwald looks to strike that balance between RPG titles and strategy ones that previous games such as King's Bounty managed so successfully. In fact, this is probably the strongest comparison I can make to an existing franchise, but seeing as the King's Bounty series...
Sony Vegas Pro 13 - PC Review
Video game recording has become a popular process for gamers in recent years. With tools like the recently reviewed, and excellent, AverMedia ExtremeCap U3 CV710, Fraps, OBS and XSplit, gamers have more tools than ever to record their content. However not every recording will...
Spiders and Focus Home Interactive announces The Technomancer
This new RPG set in a cyberpunk environment certainly sounds like it could prove interesting.
...
Sovereignty: Crown of Kings - PC Preview
Slitherine publishes a lot of war games, but Sovereignty: Crown of Kings feels different for several reasons. The most notable is the rich fantasy setting it uses to excellent effect. I dig a nice war or science-fiction strategy title, but nothing gets me quite as interested...
Game of Thrones: Episode Three - The Sword in the Darkness - Xbox 360 Review
Choice. Or at least the illusion of choice. That’s the core gameplay element of the episodic adventure games by Telltale Games. Great storytelling and strong characters make up the rest of the experience. Both seasons of their Walking Dead series featured...
Kholat adds more than just great narration to their project
Previously we have shown screens from the upcoming game Kholat and talked about how Sean Bean is lending his voice to the narration. Now the team at IMGN.PRO has another announcement to make.
...
Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin - PS4 Review
When From Software first released Dark Souls II for the PC and last-gen consoles we here at Chalgyr's Game Room absolutely loved it. A near-perfect blend between action, brutally challenging gameplay, and traditional roleplaying elements, Dark Souls II was a strong contender...
PDP Mortal Kombat X Fight Pad (Xbox 360/Xbox One) - Hardware Review
Over the last year or so we have reviewed a number of PDP products, mostly their headsets, and they have all been received quite favorably, both by our reviewers as well as the general public. While we have used some of the PDP controllers, the PDP Mortal Kombat X Fight Pad...
Blood Bowl 2 receives a new trailer and more images
We have been following Blood Bowl 2 for some time now (because football is a personal favorite sport of mine, so adding fantasy? Sign me up!), and this latest reveal gives us a better look at what the upcoming title has to offer.
...
Omega Quintet - PS4 Review
The Sony consoles have long been a solid destination point for JRPGs. While the genre gets represented on the Microsoft and Nintendo systems as well as PCs, many of the more niche titles just seem more at home on Sony. As such, I have been personally waiting for some solid JRPGs...
Bloodsports.TV - PC Review
Bloodsports.TV caught me off guard. I had gone in armed with three others seasoned players expecting to personally be demolished by another team. This is honestly my general sentiment based solely on how good (or bad) “I” am at MOBAs (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena). Checking...
Dimension Drive looks like all kinds of shoot-'em-up fun
I love a good shooter, and this game with its graphic style and mechanics looks like it does enough to interest fans of the genre while bringing enough new to the table to keep Dimension Drive from growing stale. Here it is on Kickstarter with still a few weeks to go.
...
Victor Vran - PC Preview
Victor Vran is a Hack and Slash RPG, currently enjoying its Early Access stage on Steam with plenty of its own quirks to make it work. Using multiple features varying from different weapons to equipping cards for stat bonuses and runes for special abilities, players are given...
Mortal Kombat X - PS4 Review
Mortal Kombat 9 took some major chances when it came out several years ago, but those chances paid off in spades as the team at NetherRealm Studios managed to breathe new life into the fighting series. Mortal Kombat X does not stray terribly far from that formula, but it does...
Sega announced more 3DS Classics
Recently Sega announced that they were expanding their line of 3DS classics for the 3DS. Personally I love this move, but as someone who plays his 3DS in the 3D mode pretty much all of the time, this has always felt like a great spin on playing classic games.
...
Chez Geek: House Party Edition - Tabletop and Board Games Review
I have to say that the Steve Jackson Games are quickly becoming some of my favorites. There is an irreverent humor to them whether it is in Muchkin Deluxe or their take on Zombies with the Munchkin series, but clearly the designers are not a one trick pony because Chez Geek...
DeadFellas - Tabletop and Board Games Review
Board and card games have been popular in recent years, likely due to crowd-funding sites like KickStarter. The board/card game world has re-emerged as a huge market for in-home social entertainment. One of the companies providing gamers and families with fantastic games is...
Turtle Beach shows off their new lineup of PC gaming accessories
Best known for their console headsets, Turtle Beach is ready to introduce a new line of PC gaming accessories that should appeal to a whole new market.
...
Takoashi University: Karate Fight! - Tabletop and Board Games Review
Ninja Division has published some excellent card and board games; from the wonderful wargaming title Relic Knights to DeadFellas, a hilarious card game based on "whacking mooks" that just happen to be zombies. We have had a chance to play another Ninja Division card game, this...
Toshiba 2TB Canvio Basics USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive - Hardware Review
Recently I wrote about the need to expand on my storage space on the PlayStation 4. This was hardly an issue exclusive to the Sony platform, as the Microsoft Xbox One also only shipped with a 500 gigabyte hard drive. The end result? More games than I had space for within the...
Even more Bandai Namco game announcements - Tales of Zestiria, Godzilla, J-Stars and much more
Earlier this week we talked about the recent announcements of Project X Zone 2 and Saint Seiya: Soldier's Soul as well as new assets for the upcoming Naruto and Supernova titles. Well now Bandai Namco has thrown a lot more content our way with the announcement of Sebastien Loeb...
Blue Estate The Game - PC Review
Based on the Eisner Award nominated graphic novel, Viktor Kalvachev, Blue Estate is a fast paced, dark humored, on rails shooter that had me splitting a gut and nailing head shots with automatic rifles. With smooth movement, over the top characters and a ridiculous story line...
Final Fantasy Type-0 HD - PS4 Review
A lot of people have found themselves being shocked at the brutality that we've seen in this iteration of Final Fantasy which is a really impressive HD port from a PSP game. By now everyone has seen the dying chocobo and his rider but compare it to the simple brutality of war...
Hex announces a major update
Hex was an interesting title that came out of Kickstarter last year well above their gathering goals and the new video and information is a good way to hype the title up.
...
Son of Nor - PC Review
Son of Nor is an interesting Indie that originated from Kickstarter and recently found itself in full release after being in Early Access on Steam for some time. Players will find themselves part of a Human Tribe that has been secluded for more than four centuries. After having...
Bloodborne - PS4 Review
Bloodborne is the gory love child between From Software’ Demon’s & Dark Souls ventures and Sony's game division. Players find themselves in a world that is falling apart (instead of has, for those familiar with the Souls series) on the eve of the “hunt” and must find a way...
Bandai Namco announces some new titles, offers assets to others too
Bandai Namco always seems to have something in the works - but now they have several somethings with plenty of assets to boot! My personal favorite? The announcement about Project X Zone 2. I really enjoyed the original, so this is one I will be looking forward to. However,...
Damascus Gear: Operation Tokyo - PS Vita Review
I’m not quite sure what it is with giant robotic suits of armor that I find so appealing, but the idea of flying around in a giant mech is just really cool. Damascus Gear takes a page out of From Software’s Armored Core series with a crazy amount of parts to customize your giant...
StarDrive 2 - PC Review
There are some games out there that just make you go “wow”.
Combining elements from the 4X and real-time/turn-based strategy genres honestly had the potential to be amazing or to become a recipe for disaster. With how different each style can be from one another however, Star...
Turtle Beach Elite 800x is now available for pre-order
One of the biggest names in video gaming headsets has a new product on the way, and for those looking to give it a go - pre-orders will be avaiable.
...
Tentacle Bento - Tabletop and Board Games Review
Tentacle Bento (in case the name did not give it away) is not really meant for kids, but it does take the basics of a well-known card game and adds some variation to the mix to create a lightweight game that can prove to be a good deal of fun.
...
Flame Over - PS Vita Review
I’ve played a lot of hard games. Now while a game like Dark Souls is considered “Hard”, in a lot of ways it is still borderline fluffy when compared to gruelingly difficult classic games like the NES Battletoads. I've also played a lot of roguelikes such as the Mystery Dungeons...
Gameplay trailer for The Witcher 3 is out now
One of the biggest releases of 2015 is drawing near, and there is a new gameplay trailer for it today.
...
Asteroids: Outpost - PC Preview
Asteroids: Outpost certainly has some interesting ideas and it feels as though the development team has their heart in the right place. Unfortunately at this stage of the game, there is a considerable lack of material and plenty of rough edges to work around. Games on Early...
Satellite Reign - PC Preview
Cyperpunk settings have always held a special place in my heart and frankly there are far to few games set in this dark and gritty sci-fi setting. Fortunately though, the recent success of titles like Shadowrun or the older Deus Ex titles, have kept gamers sated these last few...
Lone Wolf Development Announces New Pathfinder Adventure
I have a personal interest in almost anything as it relates to Pathfinder, and this latest announcement was an interesting one.
...
RIVE - PC Preview
RIVE, the metal wrecking, 2D, twin stick shooter, action platformer, is a wild ride! This old school style game would not normally be my thing but, I have to say: I was very sad when the demo ended.
...
Final Fantasy Type-0 HD - Xbox One Review
The Final Fantasy franchise is long and storied, with titles ranging from near-perfect Final Fantasy VI and Final Fantasy X to the much-lamented Final Fantasy Mystic Knights and Final Fantasy: All the Bravest. Some of gaming's most memorable scenes come from a Final Fantasy...
An early peek at F1 2015
We have a handful of screens and some press information for the upcoming F1 2015 title right here.
...
My Style Studio: Notebook - Wii U Review
My Style Studio: Notebook is not a game in the traditional sense. There are no bosses, no levels or really any kind of structure to it at all. It is more of an application, but it is the type of program that feels like a perfect fit for the Wii U.
