  1. Video review of Ashes of the Singularity:

  2. Ashes of the Singularity Gameplay - 2v4 Full Release

  3. The current top Ashes of the Singularity player is streaming. It's out of this world. ;)

  4. You want your readership to come back? Be relevant to them.

  5. It's one reason why Streamers/Youtubers are eating the old media's lunch (and I say that looking at the Steam page referrals).

  6. ...Ridiculing the campaign in a review is, frankly, embarrassing. It's a strategy game. Campaigns are there to walk you through the setting.

  7. Ashes will end up with a ~80 metacritic. I don't mind someone feeling that the campaign should have mroe depth...but...(1/2)

  14. Remember when reviewed strategy games? Now it's about the story. Good thing SupCom didn't come out now.

  15. Ashes reaches top 10 on Steam! Like strategy? Get it!

  16. Ashes of the Singularity Ascendancy Wars Part 1 Imminent Crisis

  17. Ashes has been out just a few hours and it's about to crack the Steam top 10 best sellers.
