We all love Steam… Too a PC gamer, its the electromagical love-child of a best friend (because everyone else hates us because we’re apparently evil pirate ninja cowboys) and that nice local storekeeper who used to give you lollies when you were younger (yes, him – no, not his bitch wife who actually hated the […]

The resident PC elitist fanatic enthusiast, Andrew’s grim outlook on the industry provides CNS with a hefty dollop of its news content. Oh, and he has managed to convince Barry to let him review stuff too!
Hilarity ensues!
For the majority of the Mac owners out there, your gaming fix has been provided largely by one the following: a small cusp of developers (notably Blizzard or the odd indie) who realise that OpenGL is actually a better language than DirectX a porting company (probably Aspyr *spit*) using BootCamp, which begs the question, why […]
Rocket Knight Adventures was a good Mega Drive game, often quoted when discussing platform greats (alongside other memorable offerings as Gunstar Heroes). There’s a reboot coming (as is the trend these days) and here’s some concept art for it… HD-licious! Thanks D-toid.

Like Infinity Ward & (possibly) Valve, some people at BioWare obviously want to make movies… Big booming grand epics with loads of gravitas. Evidence A – The Mass Effect 2 Launch Trailer
It’s official – Venice-based Blur Studios do some good shit. They even made the only decent bit of the hateful Transformers movie tie-in game. They have since done a cinematic* trailer for Mass Effect 2 and it looks very nice in its obscenely highly detailed character model-ness. Find it after the cut… * – in […]
We’re hoping to get our Left 4 Dead 2 review out soon, but other commitments have held that up. Now the excuses are done, it’s time to mention the first DLC pack for the zombie co-op sequel. Zoey, Bill, Francis and Louis are due to appear in the first pack, which goes by the name […]
I liked Arkham Asylum… so much a little wee nearly came out when the news came in – Batman is back. No doubt Arkham Asylum 2 is going to be a placeholder name, although seeing as the Asylum has seemingly managed to move brick-by-brick to the middle of the city, it’s a surprisingly accurate description.
