My detailed review of the first two parts of Steve Jackson's Sorcery!

Sorcery! is a faithful adaptation of Steve Jackson's Fighting Fantasy gamebooks of the same name and much like them it features an astoundingly well realized world filled with plenty of choices to make, monsters to bedazzle, werewolves to duel and mysteries to solve.

The first two parts of the Sorcery! quadrilogy will be arriving on Steam today with the third part following shortly and part 4 set for later this year. But for now let's focus on the first half and see how well it stands up to scrutiny on its own.

Fallout 4's Update 1.3 brings new features and many bug fixes

Despite playing a lot Fallout 4 I never really encountered many bugs or glitches which now I realize was an extremely fortunate thing. As it turns out some people were completely locked out from finishing the game, or even entering various areas until today's update 1.3 solved the problem, yikes.

Along with some very welcome bugfixing this update also brought in a couple of graphical tweaks to the PC version of Fallout 4 as well as much needed quality of life improvements for the settlements. Here's the full list of patch notes:

The ridiculous RPG Disgaea is coming to PC this February 24th

Being a PC gamer for the majority of my life I have to admit I know very little about the Disgaea series other than its a bunch of extremely well done RPGs with a good dash of humor thrown in.

But even knowing its a series quite light in tone didn't manage to prepare me for the sheer ridiculousness that is the Disgaea PC release trailer. Take a look, you won't regret it:

Matrix inspired indie FPS Superhot is arriving soon

After being successfully Kickstarted in a single day back in 2014 the indie time-bending FPS Superhot is now getting ready for a full release.

You can expect it to arrive on February 25th for the PC, Mac and Linux platforms with the Xbox One version following a couple of weeks later. Here's the rather stylish trailer that came along with the announcement:

The Division open beta will be starting later this month

Ubisoft extended The Division's closed beta test yesterday in order to ensure that the latecomers had a chance to play it before the gates were finally closed until the March 8th launch.

However, according to a post on Xbox Italy's official Facebook page it seems that The Division will be entering open beta from the 16th to 21st of February so even if you didn't get lucky enough with the closed beta you still might have a chance. The post was promptly deleted but Eurogamer managed to capture the image:

Iron Snout is a fun button-mashing fighting game

The past two days have been rather strange for me as far as indie games are concerned. First I came upon a Dark Souls inspired ARPG starring a mouse in shining armor fighting off hordes of spiders and today its a martial arts pigs fending off hordes of wolves using hog-fu.

Despite the ridiculous premise Iron Snout, the game in question, turned out to be a really fun and challenging fast paced button-mashy fighting game. Here's the trailer so you can see for yourself what its all about:

Grey Goo update brings with it a new faction, the Shroud

Grey Goo is an asymmetric base-building RTS starring three unique races each with their own tactics, ways of expansion, unit composition and overall gameplay style. While I never had the chance to play it myself most of the reviews I've gone over seem to agree on one thing, Grey Goo needs a lot more content given its price point.

The developers were seemingly well aware of this issue as the "Descent of the Shroud" update was announced yesterday and set to launch today, February 1st at 12pm CST / 6pm UTC. Best part about it all? Its completely free! Here's the announcement trailer:
