Four Extra Hours of Bat-Awesome?

Holy extra-gameplay Batman! If you live in the UK you can apparently pre-order the nardgasmic Arkham City from Tesco (Tesco does games now?) and you will get a code for an extra four hours of gameplay. FOUR HOURS? Basically with the code you will be able to download something called The Joker’s Carnival Challenge Map. […]

Drakensang: Einen Deutsch MMORPG

For those of you confused by the title, “Deutsch” means “German”. And so, while the title may be completely grammatically incorrect in actual German I think it gets across what I was trying to say. I realise it’s not a particularly inspired title but then I think it’s unusual enough when you think about it. After all, how many other […]

Win Bastion!

You can win a copy of the fantastic game Bastion which we reviewed here on the site! More details after the jump.

Retrospectacles: Casual Gaming (a.k.a. The jeans and shirt combo of video games)

With the Wii comfortably leading the current generation of consoles in sales and Microsoft and Sony making their own forays into the niche market with Kinect and Move respectively, casual gaming has certainly taken a massive leap forward since the Wii’s release in 2006. Accessibility to the general public has become a necessity for new […]

From Dust: Just a god game or the god of games?

From the moment you begin, From Dust strikes as an increadably well devised and expertly polished game. Acting the part of a god you pick up powers throughout the game which amplify and enhance your ability to change the landscape. These vary from being able to ‘jellify water’ so as to re-enact the biblical parting […]

Happy Birthday Team Fortress!

Another little piece of news for you here! It is 15 years ago that the original Team Fortress was launched, so it’s a very Happy Birthday to them! If any of you play the game (however occasionally) it might be worth your while to log in and try and play a few games. Not only […]

Relationships are Tricky…

So today I learned a few interesting things about relationships. Not real ones obviously… That’s crazy talk! So apparently, I’m not as up to date with the Old Republic as I had thought, because apparently you will have companions who will accompany you in game. This is news to me as I had thought the […]

What Race are You?

So, assuming you are one of the sensible ones and are planning on getting Skyrim as soon as possible, what race are you planning on rolling first? Do you actually have a plan? Or are you just going to see what you feel like when you get it. Also have you got any reasons for […]

Skyrim Races

Whenever you create a character in an RPG there are always pre-set variations of various faces you can choose from. They will have a different facial structure, hair styles, ages, skin complexions and whatever else the game allows you to edit in character creation.

Dues Ex Human Revolution

I come to this series relatively late, but having seen the trailer for Dues Ex Human Revolution (the third one, would you believe it) I have decided that I would love to get it. It’s only occasionally that I will get into a series such a long time after the release of the original game […]
