Alan Wake, one of the Xbox 360’s last great exclusives is exclusive no more; the narrative-heavy psychological survival horror is finally headed to the PC, after skipping the platform on the game’s console-release in 2010. It’ll be getting new features that elevate beyond its console counterpart, like support for stereoscopic 3D and multi-screen setups, and will also be more PC-0centric in its ... [»]
Thought the world was done bestowing accolades on last year’s games? You thought wrong - but the Academy of Interactive Arts and Science’s awards are a little different. Instead of winners being selected by the public or the gaming media, they’re voted on and chosen by the organisation’s 20 000-strong membership, made up of developers, ... [»]
Square Enix had a lot to answer for after Final Fantasy XIII. By making use of narrow maps to convey a sense of being fugitives on the run, the game removed the illusion of free choice. Many gamers didn’t like the ‘forced’ feeling of being on the run and instead pined for the open world maps of previous titles. (Even though in most cases the world map is just ... [»]
With two sets of developers working pretty much all the time, there’s a new Call of Duty every year. It makes sense for publisher Activision to do this; every year, the new Call of Duty ends up decimating the previous year’s sales tally. As the biggest property in the world’s biggest entertainment industry, there’s no denying that Call of Duty makes money - and of course there’s be ... [»]
I will tell you no lies, Geoff and my Internet has gone down this morning and so we are scrambling like crazy to find stories over the phones to post.. and this is a nice easy one. During an investor call yesterday Activision confirmed that it is indeed ... [»]
There are so many rumours about the next generation of consoles - but it’s not their power, graphical capabilities or online features that are drawing most reaction; no it’s the possibility that future consoles - specifically the next Xbox - could prevent people from trading in or selling their used games. Usually, rumours like this get brushed off but a lot of developers have been talking about it - and there could be ... [»]
With the 2012 gaming season now finally under way, we’ve seen a few big releases already in the shape of Soul Calibur V and the latest Final Fantasy. Things kick off in grand fashion tomorrow however, with not one, but two big debuts, in the form of the gory shoot ‘em up sequel, The Darkness 2, and the fantasy genre introduction of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.

They might not be flat and straddled on its sides by Devil’s Peak and the Lion’s Head - but the Himalayas are a kick-ass range of mountains, perfect for doing completely insane things on a Snowboard. This latest trailer for SSX shows people doing just that. It’s the biggest game in the series, so it makes sense to include the worlds most famous mountains. Well, at ... [»]
When I think of Square Enix I think of those pretty terrible games they make like Deus Ex, Dead Island, Tomb Raider, Hitman.. no wait those are all awesome games. That’s good news because they’ve just announced a brand new IP which could end up being incredible.
Sleeping Dogs is set in ... [»]
Thanks to the guys at Microsoft and Nu Metro, we’ve got a handful of tickets to see Star Wars (Yay!) Episode 1 (Ugh!) in 3D. It may have been disavowed by Star Wars fans, but there’s no denying that the Phantom Menace did include some of the slickest lightsaber battles committed to celluloid, even though those were probably digitally filmed. Those’d be ... [»]
In honour of "Safer Internet Day" (whatever the heck that is) Xbox Live’s general manager Alex Garden took to Major Nelson’s blog to make a statement about Xbox Live and its recent security woes. He says users need to be mindful of the information they give out on the internet - but curiously doesn’t actually mention the problem, defending the service’s security measure."Last year, there was a surge of personal information being ...

Earlier this week, a developer for Volition ranted about how the rumoured pre-played games lock in the next generation Xbox was a fantastic idea. It’s not. CD Projekt, the guys behind The Witcher have once again spoken sense, saying it "can be ... [»]
Apparently this is old news but it’s only just managed to bore it’s way into my safe place now and it’s a horrifying thought indeed.
Apparently in the upcoming Star Wars Kinect title there is a mini game where you can take a break from fighting the empire to challenge Darth Vader ... [»]
I’m a little obsessed with the Skylanders franchise and I think that may be because I have 2 small children who love them and the fact that it’s the first real videogame / toy crossover that I’ve ever seen that I feel should work. I’ve chatted to the ... [»]
