7 Days to Die

- Reviewed on  PS4  - 7 Days to Die released on December 13th, 2013. Developed by The Fun Pimps, 7 Days to Die is a combination of many genres, including Role-Playing, Survival Horror, Tower Defense, and more.  7 Days to Die will put your skills to the test when your dropped into a sandbox world environment.  This review WILL have  Major Spoilers  so keep that in mind before continuing... Starting right from the beginning, the main menu's music tells you everything you need to know about how freighting this experience will be.  In my honest opinion, the music and ambience are the absolute best examples of how a post-apocalyptic world (game) should be / feel. Not only is the ambience and music, the highlight of the game's features, but 7 Days to Die also has an enormous focus on inventory management.  Right as you start your world, and your rules are set (more on that later), you are put randomly into your sandbox terrain where the survival ex...

The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct

- Reviewed on  PS3  - The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct released on March 19th, 2013. Years after the original TV series released, The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct puts you in the world, full of zombies (walkers), and you must do everything in your power to survive.  The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, in my opinion, does an amazing job of focusing on survival management, and is a must play title for The Walking Dead fans.  This review WILL have  Major Spoilers  so keep that in mind before continuing... You take control of Daryl Dixon, canon TV show character from The Walking Dead, as you experience his story (at least the game's interpretation) from the beginning of the zombie outbreak.  Daryl (you) serves as the game's main protagonist, but there is also a second protagonist. This being Daryl's brother, Merle Dixon (also from the TV show).  Thankfully, in The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, Daryl and Merle Dixon are both played (voic...
