| Angry Birds head believes piracy leads to more business | Geoffrey Tim - January 31st, 2012 | Mikael Hed, head of Rovio, the company behind casual gaming phenomenon Angry Birds isn’t too worried about piracy. In fact, he believes it’s a great way of getting new fans - who might be more inclined to pay the next time round."We could learn a lot from the music industry, and the rather terrible ways the music industry has tried to combat piracy," he explained at the Midem conference in Cannes, as reported by Guardian. ...

| Call of Duty Elite iOS application now available | Gavin Mannion - January 12th, 2012 | Colour me surprised but how did Activision create a huge service like Call of Duty Elite and not have an iOS application ready to go at the start? It just seems like an obvious addition to what is already quite an intriguing service. But what’s important is that ... [»] |

| Meet Fiona, a Razer gaming PC tablet | Darryn Bonthuys - January 11th, 2012 | So what are you playing games on when you’re away from your domicile? A Nintendo 3DS? A PS Vita that had you jumping through hoops so that you could smuggle it in from Japan? Or how about a tablet device?
Now, while each device has its merits, they’ve also got their own drawbacks as well. But just imagine what it ... [»] |

| Sony backing the Vita with its biggest marketing push ever | Geoffrey Tim - January 10th, 2012 | It’s just 7 weeks until Sony’s PSP successor, the touch-screen enabled PlayStation Vita will be released in Western markets. It’s been available in the land of Ramen and panty-spewing vending machines for under a month, but has failed thus far to topple the mighty 3DS, selling just a third of the number of units in a comparable time frame. Don’t write it off just yet; it’ll likely gain a lot more ... [»] |

| The 3DS continues to smash Japanese sales records | Geoffrey Tim - January 9th, 2012 | The market for dedicated handhelds, thanks to the proliferation of gaming capable smartphones and tablets, has shrunk to nothing. Nintendo, likewise, is doomed; their new 3DS has stalled at retail, proving itself to be a worthlessly unnecessary bit of tech. Only neither of those statements is true. We’ve reported ... [»] |

| The Lazygamer Awards 2011 – Best Handheld/Mobile Game | Geoffrey Tim - December 19th, 2011 | Sometimes you just can’t be in front of your PC or on on the couch, but that doesn’t mean that the gaming has to stop. Whether you’re a commuter, waiting in a queue or evacuating your bowels, there’s always something to play - whether it’s on a dedicated handheld like Nintendo’s 3DS, Sony’s PSP or on a mobile phone or tablet. Here ... [»] |

| Monkeybin apologises for its pre-written reviews | Geoffrey Tim - December 15th, 2011 | Yesterday we uh…expressed dissatisfaction…with the way Monkeybin studios treated us and our readers as idiots - by providing pre-written, overwhelmingly positive reviews of one of their games for us to post on the site. To make it more of a slap in the face, they didn’t even provide us with a copy of the game so we could make up our own minds. They’ve now issued an apology via email; although ... [»] |

| Developer sends out positive reviews for us to use | Geoffrey Tim - December 14th, 2011 | As a games news and reviews outlet, we’re often bombarded by PR people and their incessant press releases from all over the world to feature content - or maybe review some game that we’ve never heard of. Many PR firms seem to think that because we’re in the business of relaying news that we’re little more than PR mouthpieces. For the most part, we skim through them, use what we consider to be interesting or relatable ... [»] |

| Fantastic ‘My XBox Live’ iOS App Launches, For Free! – Gallery | Nick de Bruyne - December 8th, 2011 | As an avid iOS device user (read: Apple Fanboy), I have been there and done that on a ton of apps designed to improve or work alongside another service or system but in the end the apps are usually pretty trash, or decent but nothing to write home about.
This is definitely not the case with the new ‘My Xbox Live’ app from ... [»] |
