There are moments in a reviewer's life where you put in a game and expect greatness.  Metal Gear Solid 4, Mario Galaxy and Diablo are just a few examples of games that you know are already going to be great and entertaining. On the flip side to that coin you have games that are virtually unknown, which for the most part go unnoticed, and once you play the you are completely shocked/thrilled. Tornado Outbreak is one of these games.

You know you've got a good game on your hands when it hooks you in and won't let go for hours and hours on end. Such has been the case for me this weekend with a new one from Ubisoft called Dawn of Discovery. Dawn of Discovery is, as my collegue Patrick pointed out in his review of the PC version, a sequel or continuation of the Anno series of real time strategy games (only this time under a different name in America). I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I first fired up Dawn of Discovery, but it's been the most addictive game I have played in many weeks.
