uDraw Studio Instant Artist Doesn’t Quite Live Up To Its Name
Contrary to what the title led me to believe I was not instantly transformed into an artist upon starting up uDraw Studio Instant Artist, the pack-in software for THQ’s new uDraw Tablet for the Xbox 360.

These Ninja Gaiden III Screens Were Probably Really Pretty Before Someone Poured Blood All Over Them
The next chapter in the story of dark Japanese hero Ryu Hayabusa will take a look at the man beneath the mask; a man that struggles internally over every life he takes.
