New U(I) – Valve Beta test revamped Steam interface

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 […]

Sparky – Rocket Knight Reboot Concept Art

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.

In other news, Ubisoft are scum.

Back in the mists of time (or 2006, whichever happened first, I forget), Ubisoft used this anti-piracy aberration called Starforce (or however it’s spelt). It pissed off everyone under the sun and, some people say, nearly caused Ubisoft to go bankrupt (after all, who’s going to buy a game that might break your PC, burn […]

Space Explosions… IN SPACE! – Mass Effect 2 Launch Trailer

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

Hey there gurd-looking! – Mass Effect 2 Cinematic 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 […]

Bats^2 – Arkham Asylum 2 announced

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. […]

Making TF2 fun again! – Crafting announced, Soldier/Demoman rivalry

It’s WAR… The Demoman & Soldier have been getting a little too friendly lately.  What with the Administrator being a bitch and stuff, she has initiated the WAR update.  Since Friday, the two classes have been at each others throats, slowly adding to a omnipresent counter with each successive exploderised body part.  Too the victor, […]

*sqwee* Transformers : The War for Cybertron trailer

Before I start, I completely understand that this might turn out too be a pile of turgid shit. Transformers is one of those licenses that seem a sure-fire easy way to make the best game in the world ever, yet often falls flat on its face in execution.  Actually, following the unchecked brilliance of Arkham […]
