The 2009 release that was Prototype, despite a few flaws here and there, was one hell of a sandbox game. Stuck in New York City, while the mother of all plagues ravaged through the populace, players had to use every skill available to survive the onslaught of secret paramilitary armies and mutated denizens rampaging through the infamous boroughs.
You’d think with so much carnage erupting around us, we’d get a point ... [»]
Quick, name two things that the majority of video game character protagonists today have in common. If you said being white and Nolan North, then you guessed right. Now, while no one is accusing the gaming industry of being racist or xenophobic, it is dull playing as the same Caucasian template every time we fire a game up.
After all, a lot of ... [»]
You may have noticed on Friday that I posted up a teaser image for the new title that Activision is going to announce at the VGA’s later this week with the catch phrase ‘Murder your Maker’. Well now thanks to the magic of YouTube and RampageZA’s comment we can pretty much ... [»]
Obvious sequel is obvious. Those of you who played through Sucker Punch’s comic hero free-roaming electro-thon would know that it ended on a bit of a cliff-hanger. It was also totally better than . While the sequel hasn’t exactly been announced, we know it’s coming – thanks to a domain registration made by Sony. Here’s what internet detectives uncovered : ... [»]
After seeing a Great White Shark in our last In Other News post, Rajollie, a terrified reader requested "boobies" for the next header instead of another scary-ass creature. We couldn't let a poor fear-stricken reader down now could we?Being a gaming site, we can't just put up random boobs images without any ... [»]
Well I may have to mention for the sake of the non-believers but Radical Entertainment proved themselves to be serious competitors as developers for the sandbox genre. In other words, because of the fact they focused gameplay on fun and just plain awesomeness (rather than the typical repetitive missions and rote missions), their latest title, Prototype proved itself even against big 'hypes' like ...

College Humor is known for creating some really funny videos about many different topics and this time around it's the mockery of Prototype's Alex Mercer and his quest for revenge on the people responsible for his situation.
Well, that and murder-lising anyone else ... [»]
NPD, the American chart-tracking gurus have released last month’s sales data – and with it we can finally put an end to the very serious, and very real war between the two free-roaming super-charged action hero ... [»]
The evolution of entertainment as it were usually begins with a book or comic that becomes a movie or cartoon and eventually the game finds itself on store shelves. Very few books have ever been based on video games but there are a couple of successful gaming titles that have made a rather unorthodox leap to a bookstore near you.Halo, Resistance and even ... [»]
The much loved saga continues... and this time some clever people have something to say about it.

If you haven’t finished playing Prototype yet or are thinking about giving it another bash then this one’s for you. Earlier today Activision sent over a video entitled “Hints, Tips & Stupid Chopper Tricks†and it’s the latter that I really want to give a go. The idea being that you re-hijack a chopper by hijacking it then jumping out and then getting back into it before exploding ... [»]
Despite the fact that they’re very different games, Prototype and InFamous – two sandbox super-hero games - are often compared. Yahtzee’s no different, and if you watched his Prototype vs InFamous Zero Punctuation battle, you’ll know he failed to decide on a clear winner. He did however state that he’d declare a winner after a bit of compliance from the studios that made them.What would he have Sucker Punch Productions and Radical Entertainment do? Draw the other studio’s protagonist with a ... [»]
A short while back, I reviewed Prototype and found it to be a pretty fun experience.
I have now finally also had the chance to get some good playtime into inFamous and was astounded to see how different the two games really are.
Both look similar on paper, but once you are playing them you quickly realise that they come from two different worlds. ... [»]
They have both been released and the time for professional comparisons has come and gone... The debate between Prototype and inFamous rages on and it's high time that someone settled this.Up to the plate steps Yahtzee with his unique view on life and all things ... [»]
