The story of Death Cargo, that mysterious horror-themed fighting game I first wrote about last week, gets stranger and stranger the more I look into it. Since I originally said that I was supposed to receive a working copy of the game two days ago, a lot of readers have been asking why I haven’t…

A Much Better Version Of Diablo III‘s Intro

Diablo III turned two yesterday, and in honor of this moment, the always superb folks at Carbot Animations remade the game’s original intro.
