Continuing on the list…I give you the top 4 games of 2007 for me. 4. Halo 3 (360) The game with the biggest hype of 2007 didn’t disappoint…most. The trilogy came to a solid conclusion, and it took you on some interesting twists and turns along the way. The beauty of Halo though can only [...]
I love Physics. I really love the Physics in Crackdown. I think that’s what makes the game so great. Sure it’s a great sandbox style game. But it’s the physics and the character interaction with those physics that make it such a blast to play. I present to you, exhibit 1.
Last night I finally got to put some serious amount of time into the Crackdown demo on the XBox 360. After playing a few solid sessions of Co-Op with a buddy I can honestly say this is a day 1 purchase. The way the game plays out is as you do things, you’ll gain orbs [...]
Last week I visited Rockstar Games to check out their upcoming game Bully. When Bully was announced back at E3 2005 to a small closed door group of press it immediately garnered a ton of attention. Unfortunately it was the wrong kind of attention with numerous groups and a lawyer that should not be named [...]

Unfortuantely that’s not the case with Sony announcing today that they will delay the PAL launch (Europe, Australia, Africa) until March of 2007. And if that wasn’t bad [...]
Legendary developer Peter Molyneux believes that gamers may be too lazy to truly enjoy Nintendo’s upcoming Wii console. He believes one of the reasons games are so popular is because they ARE a lazy activity. Interesting … laziness inherent in games would need to be preserved to keep gaming popular: “I’ve realised I’m an incredibly [...]
Danny Ledonne created the controversion Super Columbine Massacre RPG! The game is sick and twisted, yet somehow it’s brilliant and engadging. Why? It explores the horrible tradgedy from alternate perspectives very much like Film. People have made films about the Columbine incident and they’ve won Oscars and film festival prizes [most notably Michael Moore's Bowling [...]
And you wonder why Sega is no longer making hardware? It’s because they tried shit like this. The funniest thinga bout the video (hit the link) is the game shown (Eternal Champions) was one of the first Genesis games to use all 6 buttons on the new game pads. The activator only supports 3 buttons. [...]
