The God of War 3 demo is out. Let’s discuss!
– Dear Sony – fuck you. I understand that you wanted to put a demo out right before the game is released. Everyone does it (or at least they should do it). But you’ve got a lot of balls to then go ahead and tell the …
If you’ve ever read any of my reviews of SNK games, you will know that I had an absurd fascination with the firm’s US branch. For the most part, they were a complete and utter mystery.

I’m probably about half way through the game at this point. Considering I’ve spent …
