When I was In college, my buddy and I drank way too much everclear one night and found ourselves thirsting for adventure. We were both students at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN at the time, so worthwhile adventure-themed exploits were tough to come by.

What we found was that [...]

While the multiplayer side of DLC has found a clearer identity and audience with its map packs and additional game modes, single player DLC is completely unpredictable. What do gamers [...]
