Someone has to figure out always online connectivity right? I know we are all doubting our internets thanks to EA’s and Maxis’ complete failure of a launch for SimCity that made Diablo III’s launch issues seem almost tame by comparison. I admit there lack of preparedness is baffling, but it was also hard for me to care. I just moved on to one of two other quality titles that were released in the same week. My only regret is that [...]

The lesson of the week is quite simple: while we may consider ourselves video game bad asses, we have no business going at it alone, no matter what “it” is. We do not possess the simple survival skills to understand our environment which results in a lot of confusion, screaming, and often, player death that could have been avoided. Thankfully the only people really hurt by this are our game characters and their families. We’ve been having a damn good [...]
Being a space engineer is a hard life. They’re expected to take on a myriad of tasks, whether it be repairing derelict ships or forcibly removing a mutant’s legs from its disgusting torso. What, then, could possibly make these tasks easier on a guy who just can’t seem to get a break? How about an extra set of hands for shooting and feet for stomping? Maybe it’s the inclusion of a partner in Dead Space 3 or the fact that [...]

DICE is always a humbling week for me as a critic. It’s one thing to get caught up in the opinions of the Horrible Night writers and our peers, but seeing what the developers think about their own brings a whole new perspective. Plus, it was nice to take a break from all of ugliness of industry business that has been going around lately. I continued my to test the limits of my PC which I never ended to be [...]
There’s been quite a bit of hemming and hawing in reference to Dead Space 3. Like the rest of my angry brethren, I too have some qualms about Isaac Clark’s latest adventure and apparently the latest trailer didn’t help matters all that much. Isaac isn’t Properly Equipped for this Challenge Despite wearing his signature armor and wielding the ever trusty plasma cutter, Mr. Clark is ill-prepared for the snow-venture. I’m no winter time traveler, but even I know that snow shoes are essential when [...]
Absolutely brutal week and we hope everyone affected by the THQ closure and the beginnings of the Atari bankruptcy lands happily and safely. At least Nintendo tried to lighten the mood so don’t you ever change Big N, and by the looks of their 2013 plans, it doesn’t look like we have to worry about that at least. While I mainly played new games in this past week, my gaming felt decidedly old school. From the classic JRPGness of Ni [...]
