Want to be a computer game star?

 - May 31st, 2008
Don't tell me you don't think there is such a thing as a computer game star... Quick pop quiz.. Who is Marcus Fenix?Who is Mario Mario?Who is Solid Snake? So do you want to be the next star? Personally I think the pay sucks so I'll stick to my day job but this doesn't mean I can't get my ugly mug into one of the top games this year. Fable 2 for the Xbox 360 is being released this year and they have come up with an awesome idea to get some community involvement, all you need to do is send in a picture of yourself in a portrait style (like the one on the right). Then if Lionhead thinks you are a good candidate they will pixelise you and slap you on the wall of the best estates in the game. But you are going to have to be quick as entries close ... [»]

SBK-08 – Preview- XBOX360 -

 - May 30th, 2008
By Philip DunkleyBike games have never really been my thing, maybe because the large amounts of car racing games out there overshadow them, and one gets used to the more structured handling of a car than that of a bike. In fact, when Tourist Trophy was released a few years back, I was reluctant to play another bike racing game, because it was just ... [»]

MGS Retrospective – Part 5

 - May 30th, 2008
By Etienne Vlok Welcome to the second part of our Metal Gear plot summary, which focuses on the height of the Solid Snake ‘era’ of the plot. As you’ll notice, the plot becomes progressively more convoluted, right up to the ending of Sons of Liberty, where you would be in the majority if (after completing the game for the first time) you didn’t have a damn clue as to what happened in the finale. While some claim that Sons of Liberty is the first truly postmodern game, dealing with issues as diverse as meme theory, artificial intelligence, information control, conspiracy theories, political and military maneuvering, evolution, existentialism, censorship, the manipulation of free will and the nature of reality, many thought it was simply an effort to shoehorn too many high-concept ideas into a game that couldn’t sustain it. At any rate, more on Sons of Liberty later.Metal Gear 2: ... [»]

No PS3 price cut this year

 - May 30th, 2008
So things have been looking up for the PS3 since the turn of the year and with the latest data showing a better attachment rate and an overall good set of figures coming from Europe Sony are starting to smile again.However there is still that minor problem with the cost of the PS3, with the entry level 360 now coming in at R1999 and the Wii's new prize sitting at a whopping R3699 you would think that a price cut could give Sony a great push through to the end of the year..However from all that I can find it isn't going to happen, apparently they need to regain profitability in the ...

DFC Intelligence has put together their latest report on the state of the gaming nation and things have changed in the last year..Around a year ago they published their analysis and were very hesitant to say that the PS3 would ever be able to overtake the 360 and even come close to the Wii, however this year they are a lot more bullish and now expect the PS3 to overtake the 360 in 2009 and give the Wii a strong challenge for first before 2011...Honestly I think they are being overly optimistic about pushing the Wii ...
