This may be old to some, but for others this will be the greatest thing you have ever seen.
Video games are not known for their stories, that’s because most of the time they are an after thought. Like a waiter offering pepper on your already delicious pasta dish (fettucini carbonara).
Take Metal Wolf Chaos. In this [...]

This is a game idea I came up with the other day after visiting neopets.com
The idea takes elements from pokemon, neopets.com, spore, the sims and the somewhat obscure Phantom Crash. I know this is a ‘hardcore’ gamerz nightmare, so feel free to close the window.
When I was younger I had a neopets account and enjoyed [...]
OK… Soul Control (I have to listen to The Streets to write this)
SOUL CONTROL
Designed and created by young people for young people showing the dangers of knife crime and gang culture
(perhaps they should have used some old people who have made games)
This is a great thing, using video games as a medium for something serious, [...]
Let’s talk Natural Motion.
You guys may have noticed this soon to be trend that’s coming to games, which is physics based animation systems. Simply, game characters and NPCs responding dynamically to their environment by actual physics calculated balance and responses from forces.
Think of it as intelligent ragdolls.
And let me tell you that this is AWESOME! [...]

Basically I recorded my girlfriend (who I would not call a gamer) playing Team Fortress 2 for the first time.
It’s quiet an interesting experiment, to see how her skills improve as she gets over the initial learning curve and how [...]
So here we are again. SO I resumed my CoD 4 playing and amazingly some of my complaints in my first 3 hours in were resolved. The story actually became interesting! There is a point at about 4 hours in where it really changes the direction I thought the game was going. I won’t tell [...]
I had been meaning to play Call of Duty 4 for some time now. It’s gotten such universal praise I had to check it out.
I was a big fan of CoD 2 and we have the common decency not to mention CoD 3.
I haven’t finished it yet, I’m probably 50% of the way through and [...]
So I installed the EVE online steam trial last night
(Please note this is just my initial experience after playing for about an HOUR)
www.eve-online.com
For those who don’t know, EVE online is a MMORPG (massively multiplayer online roleplaying game) set in space with the players controlling and upgrading space ships. It is one of the highest rated [...]
$60 (us) for a game?! ABSURD ISN’T IT?! Americans remember the good old days when a game was $50 and even then that was a very expensive purchase.
I live in Australia and I pay $120 for games. Oh but the us dollar is SO much more!
1.00 AUD = [...]
