Zeno Clash 2 PC Review

May 15th, 2013 by Crowbar No Comments

Ah yes, Zeno Clash, a game that took new meaning to First Person Shooter…Erm , Brawler. Quite frankly, the game had a lot of problems despite being such a fresh idea. It felt somewhat unfinished.

The Testament of Sherlock Holmes is a title published by Focus Home Interactive and developed by Frogwares. Personally I find Sherlock Holmes stories to be well told mysteries and stories.
