Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes: The Game That'll Ruin Your Relationship
There's something inherently fun about playing games together. Whether it's working as a team or competing against each other, games tend to bring people closer. Every now and again it has the potential to make people really frustrated with each other; a prime example being that one time I threw a Monopoly piece at a foreign exchange student, but that's a story for another time! Keep Talking and No One Explodes is one of those games that might just join the pantheon of awesome yet immensely frustrating games.

Good Guy 'Grand Theft Auto' Is Going to Help Make Your Self-Driving Car Safer
Your first thought was probably to re-read that title, and now that you're satisfied that you did indeed read it correctly, you're intrigued and possible slightly miffed. So before we go any further down the rabbit hole, let me put your mind at ease: the streets of Los Santos are in fact being used to train driverless cars how to drive better.

'Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash' Offers Up Some Fresh Faces and Fresh Moves
Earlier this week, Nintendo gave us a chance to take a look at a couple of its upcoming titles for the Wii U and 3DS. I talked about one of them here and there were a couple more than I only got a brief look at. A game that we actually got an opportunity to take for a whirl was Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash. I can't really tell you the last time I played anything in the Mario Tennis series but I'm pretty sure I was lukewarm on it back in the day so I was a little skeptical of the game at first. Then we actually started to play and it was, hands down, my favorite game that we got a chance to demo.

Chase: Cold Case Investigations Is A Promising Lead For Hotel Dusk/Last Window Fans
If you like a #game that tells a great story, you may have heard of a neo-noir mystery for the DS called Hotel Dusk: Room 215, published by #Nintendo and designed by a small Japanese studio called CiNG. Or maybe you haven't. The title, and its Europe-localization-only sequel, Last Window: Midnight Promise, never caught on as big as Nintendo's other works - but they honestly deserved to for their stories alone.

Turn Up for Nostalgia: Here Are the Top 5 Video Game Songs from the '90s
A lot goes into making a good game. The process itself becomes more and more involved as technology shoots forward. What was almost always integral since the start of mainstream gaming has been the music that's come with it. A lot of games have their iconic theme songs that if played in a crowd full of gaming addicts could elicit a whole slew of emotions. With that in mind, I put together five of my personal favorite songs from video games.

New Mirror's Edge Catalyst Gameplay Trailer Released
I was a big fan of the first Mirror's Edge from the get go. The game itself looked fantastic with its minimalist aesthetic and the parkour element was very well developed. When I heard about another Mirror's Edge coming out, I was more than a little bit excited about it then that excitement tapered off for a while. Until today. This new gameplay footage has me amped all over again. The beginning shows more of the same from the first game (which isn't a bad thing by a long shot) and then stuff gets real crazy towards the tail end. Check out the trailer below!

How Final Fantasy 7 Made Me Fall in Love With Games
With the announcement of a remake of Final Fantasy 7, many long-time gamers were suddenly awash with a mix of nostalgia and slight foaming at the mouth. For many, this was the remake that they've always wanted to happen and while I'm doing my best to curb my own personal hype, I can't help but admit that I'm excited. But why? Why would I be excited about playing a remake of a game? I can't speak for everyone but, for me at least, Final Fantasy VII was the game that really made me fall in love with video games. This is going to get a little gushy so brace for that as I step in a mental time machine and hearken back to middle school.
