I remember seeing an edition of XCOM (XCOM: Enemy Unknown) many years ago and thinking, ‘What is this alien rampage shooter thingy?’ Shortly thereafter, I found myself strangely addicted to its turn-based battle style game. It blew my mind that the 2012 game I was currently lost in was actually
What would you get if XCom and Gears Of War had a baby? Well, if you guessed Gears Tactics, you would be right. The Gears of War franchise has always been a fast paced type of game that has always raised pulses and taken names. Gears Tactics is no exception,

Being a PlayStation player ever since the original console, I’ve always felt most comfortable with its controller, having remained mostly the same with its design and button layout.
