14 DAY TRIAL // It’s a slow summer month for video games and the review department of Softpedia is delivering long-form evaluations for: The Night of the Rabbit, a charming adventure with some interesting twists from Daedalic, Toki Tori 2, a platformer from Two Tribes, and Dark, a rather mediocre stealth game.
We also offer the traditional two Weekend Reading features: one about the price cuts that digitally distributed titles should have on the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 and another on the competition between the two consoles.
The second big mountains stages are at the same time taking place in my virtual recreation of the 100th of Le Tour de France using Pro Cycling Manager 2013.
