Shiniest Objects: The Rest of Us Were Lazy
Indie games stole the scene a bit towards the end of the week after game announcements and patches reminded us we had other games to finish. Ludum Dare was back and it brought us a crop of games in less than 48 hours, that is if you have time for these games after the best [...]
I’ve Had Better: The Last of Us Reveal Trailer
A more in depth trailer for Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us was shown during the Spike VGAs this past weekend, and with its reveal both speculation and excitement began to build within the gaming community. I, too, felt a small flicker of excitement at the thought of a survival horror title that appears to [...]
The 3 Degrees of Gaming Innovation
From flame wars to mega-gaming marathons that would shake lesser gamers at their cores, this holiday season is filled with record-breaking numbers, controversy and gaming (duh). Holiday gaming seasons are no strangers to massive quantities of AAA games along with their cohorts of lesser-known games that become sleeper contenders for games of the year. While [...]
Build Better Game Engines Not New Consoles
It’s been a great-but-interesting year for video games. We have seen new intellectual properties in the form of Bulletstorm and LA Noire along with a boat load of sequels and three-quels. As the sun begins to set on 2011, it is obvious that new game engines were the real stars year. Some of the best titles [...]
Handheld Temptations: 3DS and Vita
I haven’t owned a handheld since the Nintendo DS Lite was first released. I got the white one along with New Super Mario Bros. A few games purchased here and there and soon enough I was trading the system in. I just lost any interest I may have once had in the platform. I’ve never [...]
Shiniest Objects: I Will Define You
The releases keep on coming, and it has been a while since id joined the party. However, PC’s and game reviewers were left as confused as Xbox 360 cable subscribers in the end. Locally we are focused on our two upcoming events while cranking through our play queue as fast as October will allow. Every [...]
Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection Selling Out in the Good Way
In what could be labeled as quite a surprise, the recently released Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection for the PlayStation 3 knocked Gears of War 3 off the top spot in the sales chart last week. Granted, Gears 3 sold 3 million copies in its first week but for a rerelease of critically acclaimed PS2 [...]
Shiniest Objects: Now is When
Big week for release date news surrounding a number of “when its done” titles which helped distract us from the mess that is now Netflix. Qwikster? Come on. There was plenty of new action on our site this week as we introduced a new contributor, announced our first live podcast (this Tuesday 9/27 at 8pm), [...]
Resistance 3 Review: How I Learned to Send E.T. Home in a Box
Things are looking extremely grim in the Resistance universe. An alien threat has all but completely taken over and there is one man left with the firepower and determination to turn the tide. With an ever-growing pyramid of first-person shooters constantly being released, it takes a lot to stand above the rest of the crowd [...]
Sony Tablet S and 3D Gaming for Xbox 360 and PS3
Today I spent most of my time at the CEDIA Expo in Indianapolis. While there, I got some hands on time with a Sony Tablet S, a 3D gaming experience for the PS3, and a 3D 1st person shooter game for the Xbox 360. I’m going to give all three some love and end [...]
Just 5 More Minutes: Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
It is the summer after my sophomore year in college. I had received Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty the previous Christmas and had yet to beat it. In fact, I had barely even played it. For any single player game focused on story I had to be alone with no distractions. That was hardly [...]
