No, that’s not a typo. Welcome to the Weekly Warp-Up, your weekly wrap-up of the biggest and the best articles posted at Warp Zoned this week…
It’s that time again. The calendar has flipped over to a new month and the Warp Zoned staff got together to discuss The Games of July 2014. And before that, we revealed What We Played in June 2014. There are some good games in both lists, specifically The Walking Dead Season 2: In Harm’s Way, which Warp Zoned’s Mike Ryan recently reviewed. And speaking of important things that happened in June, the Game Critics Awards have showered Evolve and No Man’s Sky with multiple “Best of E3 2014” awards.
If you’re looking for something a little more “out there,” might I suggest the latest edition of our Kickstart This! column. There are cats and side-scrolling… but not side-scrolling cats.
You can find more news from the past seven days after the break.
