E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy Review
By Bennett Ring and Dylan Burns | PC Reviews | Aug 3, 2011 1:30 PM | CommentE.Y.E.: Divine Cybermancy is the kind of game that can only exist on the PC. Smashing together the first-person shooter and role-playing game genres, and built by a small team of modders turned pro, it'd be impossible to pull off on the consoles. Jam-packed with an array of gameplay mechanics, it's only natural that a few of E.Y.E.'s features are slightly wonky. Can the game's strengths overcome these undercooked elements? Read More »

Hands-on with Rage
By Ryan Scott | PC Previews | Aug 2, 2011 2:00 PM | CommentI don't play first-person shooters. I generally (with a few notable exceptions) dislike the first-person viewpoint, I've got the worst aim in human history, and I feel an irrational need to see the person I'm controlling in a game.
