As part of our Gift Buyer’s Guide for 2010, here are our recommendations for Role-Playing Games, a very important segment of PC gaming, that allow players to grow and develop characters, relationships and feel like they’re taking part in and influencing a epic adventure that can change at their discretion (usually). 2010 was a good year for games overall, but of course there were those that shone brightest and there are some that failed us all.

Indie Game Review: Death

December 16, 2010 | Justin Moody | Xbox 360 Reviews

Death is quite possibly the most concise title of all time. The entire game revolves around the concept of your character struggling to avoid dying. As you grasp for life, your objective is to basically press buttons as they appear on the screen. Correct button presses will keep you further away from “the light” and incorrect button presses will send you closer to the ever-present light. As you continue on you will have to contend with the on-screen commands changing colors, moving position, and even removing the button symbol. Death is a very simple experience that quickly becomes very difficult, but not unconquerable with a little practice.
