Enslaved review round-up: sleeper game of the year?

enslaved3

The fall game avalanche is very nearly in full swing, so you know what that means: it’s time for a bunch of amazing games to start slipping through the cracks. Thanks for nothing, holiday season!

Sure, there are some rough edges, but we’re talking about an apocalypse that’s neither dingy, gray, nor a beefy man sausage fest here!

But enough from us; check out the reviews after the break.
