1993. Bill Clinton was sworn into office; Monica Seles was stabbed by a crazy fan; and id Software released Doom, the first-person shooter that defined the 90s in gaming for its controversy, graphical excellence, multiplayer gaming and customization.

Coast Defense - Reloaded Review
It's easy to automatically get into a bad mood when faced with "yet another" castle defense style game, but it's nice to be surprised once in a while by a developer.

Alien Outpost Review
Alien Outpost is a new defense game from NewIsland Interactive and their first app for the iphone. They've certainly chosen a hard genre to break in to and the only thing that really separates it from the pack is the method of dispatching enemies, but despite this it still remains a fun game to pick up and blast through. Now that defense games have really started to branch out, it's hard to define Alien Outpost as being generic, but the controls are fairly standard to those familiar t…
