Review: Batman

Review: Rainbow Cotton
If you've played any of the Cotton games then chances are that it's been a slow 2D experience. But not Rainbow Cotton, this is a Dreamcast game that takes the standard 2D shooter and turns it into a ...

Review: Armored Core 4
Don't believe Sega's lies, this is not the fourth installment of the Armored Core series. With all the spin-offs and side games included this is more like Armored Core 10. But I guess Formula Front ...
