Following the release of Mass Effect 3 it was hard for anyone to escape the controversy surrounding the game ending. Heck, I knew more about the games ending than I did any other facet of it before I’d even bought the game. Bioware did eventually release a free DLC that put in more fan friendly…
I get the feeling Codemasters are having a mid-life crisis. Someone has mentioned to them that they’re now one of the longest-running videogame developers in the current market, and suddenly they’re worrying about whether their tackle still works rather than concentrating on what they do best. The warning signs were there when F1 2011 decided…
One should never pander blandly to fanboys. I was a Sonic kid growing up, but whenever I see my favourite blue hedgehog wheeled out now for the umpteenth time, I feel the same way one might about their favorite band going on yet another reunion tour and not realising they haven’t been a) any good,…

There are few games out there that have seen as many odd news stories and controversies as the game formerly known as The War Z. While most of the bad press surrounding the game has to do with what is actually in the game and how the developers handled that press, there has also been…
There are all kinds of different zombie games out on the market these days. For whatever reason the zombie genre has never been bigger. What is relatively disappointing is that none of the zombie games bring as much to the table as they could. That was until State of Decay was released onto the XBLA….
Everybody certainly loves zombies. It’s a bit of craze sweeping the world right now and, hey, why not jump on the bandwagon? It’s all in good fun. And you know what? I bet there are some people in this very same world who like gardening just as much as they like zombies! There are probably…
Sorry, Nintendo fans, the company has made it crystal clear that there will be no price cuts for the Wii U ahead of Xbox One and PS4 launch. Nintendo America’s Executive Vice President, Scott Mofitt, said that there will be no price drops on the Wii U ahead of Microsoft and Sony’s big releases. Even…
Gamers, breathe a sigh of relief, Microsoft’s President of Interactive Entertainment Business, Don Mattrick revealed last night via a press release that the Xbox One will be undergoing some serious changes. Xbox One No Longer Requires an Internet Connection The changes to the console, which will be released later this year, mean that the console…
I’ve been on a bit of a theme park high as of late. Park hopping across Walt Disney World certainly does a lot for the excitement levels in your body. What can I say, I’m a child at heart! That’s probably why I’ll consistently play Nintendo games! So earlier, while marveling over the Magic Kingdom…
Valve has finally set a release date for the sequel to the hugely popular Warcraft III game mod “Defense of the Ancients”. Dota is considered by many to be the seed of the MOBA genre, despite it having a predecessor in the “Aeon of Strife” Starcraft mod. Dota spawned many of the conventions we now…
There are some games that, when brought up, garner only confusion. I make a point to keep these in my collection because the only thing better than having awesome games, is having awesome games nobody else has heard of. Sometimes great games just manage to slip through the cracks without notice, and that’s a shame….
Ah, Animal Crossing. There’s nothing quite like it! It’s a series that stands out on it’s own and is down right fun.. in an almost obsessive, addictive kind of way. There’s so much slander against games that serve the purpose of giving people a “second life.” You’ve heard it all, I’m sure: “GO OUTSIDE,” “MEET…
Yes, you read it right! I’m going to buy the Xbox One regardless of all the crap everybody’s been throwing at Microsoft for introducing some harsh policies. The Xbox One is not at all that bad, most of the comments you find on the internet are from people who weren’t even going to buy the…
After the Xbox One received an underwhelming reception, Microsoft has found itself at the heart of another E3 blunder. Geek Insider has heard through the grape vine reports that suggest that games shown at the Xbox One booth were not actually running on Microsoft’s new console, but they were in fact running off a Windows…
