| Best video game sex scenes | 
Gavin Mannion - March 14th, 2011 | The mainstream media is often quick to attack video games for corrupting the youth and helping the moral decay of society, but have you ever seen video game sex?It’s generally pretty low fidelity and nothing like the scenes you get to see on most TV channels after 10pm at night.Check below ...

| Being a gaming parent | 
Geoffrey Tim - February 16th, 2011 | I’m a gamer. Probably the sort you’d call “hardcore.†Like most gamers my age, it’s a label I’ve had nearly my whole life. I played games, weaning myself on a one-buttoned joystick, before I reached puberty. I played games through my teens with increasingly sophisticated controllers, and have continued to do so despite rapidly approaching middle age. I’ve recently, much to the shock ... [»] |

| Natal Isn’t Just About Gaming | 
Geoffrey Tim - April 22nd, 2010 | Natal, says Microsoft, is about more than just gaming. Marc Whitten, Xbox 360’s general manager has said that Natal has been created to enhance the living room experience just as much as it was for gaming. He said the device will replace the host of buttons and remotes – and at some point may even react to users reactions when watching things like televised sports. Natal will learn things, get ...

| Games replace Movies as favourite, so says NPD | 
Dieter Fouche - May 22nd, 2009 | So I think Lazygamer has had a total of 4 articles on different movie companies joining the gaming world now. We have Jerry Bruckheimer, Steven Spielberg, Legendary Pictures and now apparently Ubisoft wants to break into the special effects business. Crazy right?

| OnLive killed the video game star | 
Dieter Fouche - May 12th, 2009 | When I read this article I shuddered. Was my precious console now finally facing the firing squad? According to Palo Alto-based OnLive, it was. Unluckily for our console counterparts OnLive isn’t merely all talk either. Apparently it’s been dropping jaws of the press who've seen it working this week at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco. GameDaily dubbed the play "fantastic" after seeing Crysis streamed "smooth" off a server to a plain ol' MacBook laptop. Crysis? Consoles…thee end might be nigh.See, OnLive claims ... [»] |

| Gaming Sequels: The Good, The Bad & The Future (Part 2) | 
Dieter Fouche - May 1st, 2009 | So at least there are some joys when writing analytical pieces like these. Mostly things like getting to brag when games like the following 4 roll on to my doorstep. And the following are a smoking slice of proof, that 3 is in fact not the lucky number…it’s been 4 all along.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
I decided to move on to something that I could actually be happy to write about and that is Call of Duty. For me, I’ve had a deep love for the Call of Duty series for a long, long time. However, I share the same love for the Medal of Honour series. I’m sorry. I just love blowing away Nazi's with my M1 Garand, then hearing that click as the cartridge is empty and the metal pin pops out. Love it! And then, along came Modern ... [»] |

| Gaming: My Drug of Choice | 
Dieter Fouche - April 29th, 2009 | I have been called many things in my life. Animal! Murderer! Sadist! KILLER! And yes, I am all of these things and so much more. I have killed thousands of people and taken down the headquarters of countless enemy regimes, all on a daily basis. However, I do all of these things for the good of man. My weapon of choice? 14 buttons, 2 rubber analogue sticks, and a deadly ... [»] |

| OnLive should have been announced on April Fools | 
Gavin Mannion - April 2nd, 2009 | I haven’t been paying much attention to this OnLive service that was announced at GDC to be honest, quite simply because it has absolutely no way of working for us anytime soon. Without even going into the technical details of the system which to be honest, sound like absolute BS to me, there are some fundamental issues that will never ... [»] |

| The new leader in gaming entertainment? | 
Gavin Mannion - March 19th, 2009 | Recently I have been seeing quite a lot of iPhone and iPod Touch gaming adverts on the TV and was starting to think that maybe Apple entered the console race without many of us noticing. Well they have just announced that they have sold an incredible 30 million iPod Touch and iPhones which leapfrogs them straight past the Xbox 360 and places them firmly as a real contender in the gaming market. I personally have ... [»] |
