Playing Minecraft with Lee and Frank, have already tried to block one of them in a cave :)
Must say, I am disappointed by the lack of such basic commands as "Get the fuck out of my way" and "Down in front!" #BinaryDomain
Good afternoon climbing... my fingers hurt now! Finally got some shoes so pretty happy :) #fb Well, my team will definitely know when I'm in trouble. Hope they're never counting on me for motivation. http://t.co/NG1CnzT8 #BinaryDomain Apparently I can give the "Blitz!" command with no problems. Whatever that is.Set in 18th century North America, Assassin’s Creed III will be another fresh take on a franchise that turns five years old this year. We’ve seen the series evolve from its beautiful but rough roots in the 11th century with Altaïr during the Crusades, continued through the 15th century Renaissance Era with Ezio and now the Animus will take us [...]
If you have any interest in gaming at all, you’ve probably heard something about the controversy surrounding the ending to Mass Effect 3. In short, a collection of gamers are very unhappy and very vocal about the conclusion to the series. A group have even started a petition to change the ending. In response to accusations of entitlement, they have [...]
I’ve been gaming for over 25 years and in just a few short hours a simple 2-hour adventure leapt straight into my top five favourite games of all time. Journey is out today, a downloadable PS3 game from thatgamecompany. It’s lovely and haunting but yes, it can also be frustrating for the completionists among you. Here are some tips to [...]
I wrote in a previous piece that destruction is the best way to make the player feel powerful. There is one more effective method – destruction’s opposite: creation. However, despite being the engine powering the success of The Sims, Minecraft, and the legions of Tycoon games, its seldom seen in more “traditional” games. Why is this? The first, and probably [...]
Once upon a time, back when we were younger and LaserDiscs were the next big thing… I was a “gamer”. Theoretically, I still am a gamer but over the years a hobby that was once so niche it didn’t require any further sub classifications is now massive. It has seemingly become necessary to identify ourselves and each other, within this hobby, [...]
XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a real-time strategy game which follows on from the events of the 1994 classic UFO: Enemy Unknown. In the XCOM universe, the earth is under attack from an unknown extraterrestrial force with massively superior numbers and technology. Commanding an elite force of soldiers, it’s up to you to defend the earth from destruction. Last week I [...]
Valentine’s Day saw Capcom potentially show some love for its loyal fan base by registering a new Darkstalkers trademark with the European Union trademarks office. The last time this occurred, it was disappointingly used only for the PSP Darkstalkers Chronicle collection, although I did nearly buy a PSP for this alone. This time, it feels different. Yoshinori Ono, having now [...]
Risen 2 is a game about pirates. It’s also a game about soldiers, about making choices, and a li-ttle bit about racism, though not in that socially-conscious educational way. More the other kind. You know. The racist one. Developers Piranha Bytes have focused their efforts on breadth in Risen 2. You play a nameless hero who was dishonourably discharged from [...]
There are few things more frustrating in gaming then finding out (usually after several days of doing it the hard way) there’s a simpler way of doing things. MMOs and RPGs seem to be especially susceptible to this, mostly due to the non linear structure of the genres, preferring to leave you to either a) work it out for yourself [...]
Strategy games like to give you choices, lots and lots of choices and all those options can be overwhelming. When you start up a game you don’t always want to spend twenty minutes fine tuning exactly how many Barbarians are going to appear and how vicious their sneers are likely to be. Warlock does an excellent job of providing control [...]
I’m 22 years old, I’ve been obsessed with games since I was 4, I’ve even studied Game Development and Game Design in college. I… this is kind of hard to admit… I’ve never played a survival horror game before. In particular, I’ve never played Silent Hill 2 (SH2), which is perceived by many to be the genre’s pinnacle. Modern survival [...]
The thing that strikes you most about WipEout 2048 is how beautiful it looks and sounds. There are so many intricate details on the ships and scenery and I love the way ships expel all sorts of gases and fumes as they race. The video billboards plastered onto the sides of buildings bring the world of anti-gravity racing to life [...]
