Rise & Shine

Rise and Shine

The aptly named Gamearth is a wonderful, peaceful planet full of wonder and happiness – oh wait, it’s just been invaded by a bunch of warmongering Space grunts from Nexgen. Typical. In the aftermath of their devastating first strike, a child named Rise is forced to take on the sacred gun Shine – and with it, the fate of his world.

Dead Effect 2

Dead Effect 2

In space, no one can hear you scream. Apparently. We’ve never been there ourselves. Still, Dead Effect 2’s sci-fi horror first-person shooter gameplay should squeeze out a yelp or two. Set aboard a derelict spaceship, you fill the shoes of an elite soldier, charged with the tricky task of taking control over a monster-infested ship. At least it’s more exciting than an office job.
