Review by Brad L. It is no secret that a lot of us love the Warriors series here at Digitally Downloaded. I’m sure many a reader here knows how Matt was first introduced to the series. You could easily say he is probably the biggest fan of the Warriors games…
Read MoreNews by Jedediah H. I’ve been deservedly punched on the side of my head a couple times in my life (for being too handsome, I guess), but none of those hits registered with quite the impact or playfulness as Team Ninja’s flurry of news: Dead or Alive 5 Last Round…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Given that I am such a fan of Koei Tecmo’s Warriors franchise, people are often surprised to hear that I came to the series quite late. My first Warriors game was, in fact, Samurai Warriors 3 on the Nintendo Wii. And I wasn’t going to play…

Read MoreNews by Jedediah H. Can you believe your enchanting (green?) eyes that Ar Nosurge: Ode to an Unborn Star is nearly, the 26th of September to be exact, in our anticipatory clutches? Well, until that day comes, and while your hands are free, take hold of my calloused yet confoundedly soft…
