Red Dead Redemption Trailer: Viva La Revolucion!

By Will Tuttle | Xbox 360 Videos | May 7, 2010 11:38 AM

OK, I think everyone can agree Rockstar should just go ahead and release Red Dead Redemption right now, as it's obvious (to anyone who watches this trailer) that the game is as ready as it'll ever be. It's nice to get a bit of a glimpse into the story, looks like there should be plenty of over-the-top characters a la GTA. Head inside to start the revolution. See More »

Earn the Title Nebuchadnezzar the Great in Civilization V Digital Deluxe

By Mike Sharkey | PC News | May 6, 2010 1:17 PM | Comment
