Games of February Do Not Care About Fall Releases
We hope you’ve gotten your fill of 2011 games because the games of 2012 are ready to take over starting this month. The major titles are surprisingly dark for the month of love, but we’re ok with that and have compiled a list of the titles we are looking forward to the most. Past the [...]
I Am Alive Trailer May Be Bluffing
Not much is known about I Am Alive after its turbulent development cycle. Bursting back onto the scene with recent trailers and a fast approaching release date during the Xbox Live Arcade House Party (which starts on February 15th) has revealed that the game is still focused on surviving in Chicago a year after a [...]
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Demo Impressions: A Familiar Challenger Appears
The role playing game genre has never been more popular than it is right now. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has sold 10 million copies. Mass Effect 3 is coming out in March. Those two series are arguably the two most popular RPG franchises ever made. It’s going to be hard to find a place [...]
Star Wars: The Old Republic Beta Preview: I Found a Bioware RPG
Now I know how Anakin felt, torn between love and duty. Will I follow in his footsteps down the dark path, or will I stand firm in my convictions? Surely I will not falter, as Natalie Portman is not carrying my babies or listening to me bitch about sand. You see, I swore to myself [...]
Games of November are Full of Stimulating Sequels
It may not be much, but we are trying to help you. It’s rough out there, there have already been too many great games recently and now more are on the horizon. We’re as scared as you are, but no matter you selection, we think you are going to be happy. We break down the [...]
Lollipop Chainsaw Contains Sex, Drugs, Rock ‘n Roll in Addition to Cheerleaders and Zombies
One view of the latest and most mature (by immature adult content standards) Lollipop Chainsaw trailer (above) should be enough to let you know whether or not Suda 51′s upcoming zombie action title is for you since it’s about as subtle as a chainsaw through your torso. The Grindhouse inspired trailer will either force you [...]
Bloodforge: First Cut Teaser Trailer is, well, Bloody
Little is known exactly what Bloodforge will be about beyond it is set in a Celtic world focused on the Celtic mythos. Speaking of which, I don’t recall a game that is centered on Celtic mythos. The main character, Crom, wields a mean sword with even meaner swordsmanship while wearing a mask that was likely [...]
Worms Crazy Golf Trailer Opts for Fun Over Mayhem
While normally I’m not a huge fan of changing up the formula to Worms (looking at you recent 3d versions), there’s something intriguing about Worms Crazy Golf. It looks nice and safe in its familiar 2D art style, yet there’s seem to be big puzzle features at work here. Worms Crazy Golf looks to be [...]
Games of October are Everything Including Crazy
It doesn’t get any easier from here on out, here’s hoping that you made use of some of Ethan’s deals posts because you are gonna need every penny to get through October looking at this lineup. Nevermind that we’ve got another month of crazy releases, we’re here to talk through the major releases of this [...]
PAX Hands-on: Chasing Aurora
One thing that took me by surprise at PAX was the sheer volume of people constantly moving in my field of vision – my eyes literally got tired and my sense of equilibrium felt a little off, so it was nice to find respites from the visual onslaught. While perusing the games on the Indie [...]
PAX Hands-on: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
It’s been over 7 years since the release of Counter-Strike: Source, and while people have been begging for Half-Life 3, we are instead presented with the next addition to the family, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive aka CS:GO. Before PAX, I had mixed emotions about CS:GO. I haven’t touched a Counter-Strike game in years, and Source never [...]
They Bleed Pixels Trailer is an Understatement
Seriously, who knew pixels could contain so much blood. They Bleed Pixels looks to spill plenty of platelets all over Xbox Live Indie Games (XBLIG) in the near future. Spooky Squid Games looks like they have a tight 2d platformer on their hands complete with plenty of gratuitous pixel violence. From the trailer (above), a [...]
