Cheap Thrills: H.A.W.X 2 The 8-bit game
Cheap Thrills is a column by Chris Gampat reviewing affordable (under $20) or free games for the recession.
I remember playing the original version of H.A.W.X in alpha form back during my PCMag.com days and then the Android version put out by Gameloft. While I comfortably preferred the latter, the 8-bit version of the game is simply the most addicting. H.A.W.X. 2's 8-bit version is an ode to old-school top down shooters, with a few flourishes that test player strategies and reflexes while offering versatility in the way the game can be played.
Cheap Thrills: Coma Is Like Limbo on Flash
Cheap Thrills is a column by Chris Gampat reviewing affordable (under $20) or free games for the recession.
Coma is a free flash game where the player must accomplish certain tasks to finally wake themselves out of a coma and escape the dreamworld. Remember that very-creepy-but-addicting-nontheless game called Limbo for XBLA? Well, Coma will remind players much of that game. Granted, there are differences—but the core gameplay is still quite similar and players will encounter similarly creepy events without the simplistic but brutal violence that players experienced in Limbo.
