    Product placement in gaming isn’t something I exactly agree with, but you just know it’ll slowly make it’s way into the industry. Especially when you consider games are becoming cheaper and their shelf life is diminishing. As such, Blizzard has advertised a “Franchise...

We live in a time where shortening terms and making minimalistic phrases out of words has become the trend, “Apps” is an example of this and it’s disgusting. Okay maybe that’s abit harsh, but making things sound cool by shortening them is abit lame. But the good news, Youtube is now...

Naughty Dog recently had their say on the “poor standard” of story-telling in video games, revealing its aim to “change the f***ing industry” with the PlayStation 3-exclusive The Last of Us. Have you seen the Trailer? Zombie Apocalypse mixed with father/daughter relationship is what...

The biggest LAN in the World (Lanky Angry Nerds, as my mates used to call them) happened in Sweden a few days back, they’re called the “DreamHack Festivals”. We’re talking like 12,000 plus people here, that’s insane! And it’s been going on for quite a few years, how gross...

Talking in the third person is a sign of the crazy’s, but playing Third person is a joy, especially in the vast expansive world of Skyrim. In previous iterations of The Elder Scrolls Series first person was the better option for combat, which didn’t sit well with some gamers and I was one of...

Not much to report other than the fact that it’s good news! Ubisoft confirmed that the next game in the Assassin’s Creed series will ship on PC without Ubisoft’s notoriously disliked ‘always on’ anti-piracy software. The news comes from gaming site Rock Paper Shotgun, which...

So here is another culprit with the iPhone 4S, another one bites the dust. As someone who doesn’t really hold any allegiances to either Apple or Android and has owned both, I can’t conclusively say I prefer one or the other. They essentially both do the same things I need, and it is just a...

Forget the Assassin’s Creed Revelation’s Trailer, this is more interesting! I remember seeing this for the first time in-game, when you poison an NPC and they go into an arm flailing fit, it looks exactly like what happens in one of those lame moshpits. It looks ridiculious, “Slam...

This game is what the movie Bring it on would be like if they threw in some zombies, violence and candy. It’s pretty nuts, you slice and dice zombies and then they turn into rainbows, yep I just said that. Lollipop Chainsaw is graphically inspired by pop-art, sparkles fly as you dismember enemies and...

There were many high quality booth babes at Tokyo Game Show 2011, it’s been said that TGS was a little dead this year and last year was better. Booth babes make you forget about that, yes it’s been a hard year for Japan, but hopefully it’ll pick up again next year. I didn’t exactly...

Only my second time playing Xbox Kinect, this was, originally sort of sceptical and never really enjoyed these sorts of games, I was. Abit different, star wars was, see the appeal and it plays like an arcade game almost, I can. Very sequence based as you can imagine, it is, the way to go with this, I...

Metro: Last Light isn’t a game or franchise I’m very familar with, so I was going into this expecting nothing, but by the end I was really impressed with the game and the concepts behind it. It’s not your typical first person shooter, it’s not kill.kill.explore-repeat, Metro is more...

Mass Effect 3 is shaping up to be one of the biggest RPG releases of this generation, who would have thought it’s humble beginnings in the 360′s life cycle would come to this? This is mainly thanks to the second game, as you probably know, it evolved quite abit from the original and has set up a...

In Tokyo I got to sit down with one of my favourite online action RPG’s, Phantasy Star Online 2, I played the original on Dreamcast to death and knew the franchise had slowly gone downhill since then. As such, I was unaware that it would be showcased and found myself pretty excited to play it. Luckily I...

We recently sat down with Tekken Hyrbid at Namco Bandai’s Pre TGS Event, this release aims to combine a few different entries into the series, it’s a cocktail of button mashing. It’s pure fan service and I played the fan favourite Tekken Tag Tournament 2 “prologue”, multiplayer...
