Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Screenshots
Well it’s coming and everyone is waiting for it, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare 2, so we figured we’d put up as many screenshots as we could find that were tasty. Unfortunately it looks like still no main-story-line co-op, but they are offering co-op in the SpecOps mode which is taking down foes in special [...]

Tuesday, July 14, 2009
I can only describe the first Army of Two game as a “huge let down” — the game was dripping with potential, but due to either a lack of time or vision the team couldn’t pull it all together into the co-op insanity and wonderment that it was suppose to be. You ended up with [...]

Sunday, July 5, 2009
Summary [5.5 out of 10] Terminator Salvation is a terrible game whose unfinished feel, technical hickups and terribly scripted sequences all punish the player for trying to play it. Terminator Salvation has the feel of a game that only had 8 months of development time in order to make it’s launch along-side the movie. I wouldn’t [...]

Wednesday, April 8, 2009
If you are a fan of tennis (either games or the sport), I imagine you were torn last year between getting Virtua Tennis 3 or Top Spin 3 — I was, and I ended up getting both. Let me sum up the difference for you: Virtua Tennis series is more arcade-style tennis — meaning it’s more about [...]

Saturday, February 14, 2009
Those are tears you see in my eyes… tears of Olympus-joy… of blood-spilling, pixel-boob-admiring Olympus-joy. The God of War III trailer is out, and is no more of this sneak-peak stuff from before — it’s gameplay-proper: For the HD version, click here.

Wednesday, January 28, 2009
Summary [9.8 out of 10] Bethesda’s take on the Fallout series re-imagined as a spiritual successor to the Elder Scrolls series, Fallout 3 looks a bit suspect on paper. It seemed kind of like Bethesda was just trying to shoe horn the series into an already familiar mold to take the easy way out. As it [...]

Monday, December 8, 2008
This reminded me a lot of the quality and styling work of Starbreeze, but Batman: Arkham Asylum is actually being done by Rocksteady Studios. Big props to them on this title — I’m suddenly very interested in a title I would whole-heardely ignore normally because of the fidelity and slightly more mature tone to the game. [...]

Friday, December 5, 2008
Game Daily posted interview bits with David Cage (President, CEO, Writer and Directory of Quantic Dream and Heavy Rain respectively — and the #1 entry on my personal “People I Admire the Shit Out Of” list). The interview gives us some insight into the scripting and story development aspects of Heavy Rain, which is just another [...]

Enjoy: Full Announcement The newest title in the Riddick franchise, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena brings the hit first person shooter to a new audience and a new generation of consoles when it is released [...]

Thursday, November 20, 2008
Ouch… right after Mirror’s Edge was released on consoles as either a love it or hate it ordeal (I’d say I lean towards the first) it looks like they are sprucing up the PC launch of the title with full physical material rendering done by the NVIDIA PhysX engine that was recently integrated directly into [...]

Friday, November 7, 2008
Andrew Burnes over at VE3D has thrown up 26mins of Left 4 Dead gameplay video from the demo. I found the following bit of gameplay the most representative of the environments, scenarios and team-dynamic going on in that title: I’ll admit, the first time I saw Left 4 Dead demoed (maybe a year ago?) I thought [...]
