Fans of the decade always say the eighties will never die, but whether that’s true or not usually depends on your musical tastes. Thanks to Valve through, it looks like one of the longest surviving groups of the eighties, Depeche Mode, could be alive and well amongst the undead horde in Left 4 Dead 2. In a rather odd licensing twist,  the eighties synth super group have ...

I recently got back from a trip in Finland to Frozenbyte Studios- my first as an official TPCG card carrying team member, (badges, we don't need no stinking badges!) and got to play Trine, a charming physics based 2D platform/ puzzle game that's showing a great deal of promise. You might remember Frozenbyte as the team behind the Shadow grounds games. Being an old school platform game fan, I was instantly drawn to this clever, challenging little  game-I only hope the ...
