Why Aren’t You Playing?- DEFCON Everybody Dies

So the world never ended in 2012 in the zombie apocalypse we all hoped it would, but now in 2013 the current gaming generation will.

Developers are now concentrating on their next...

Thoughts On Horror Games

Thoughts On Horror Games

Horror games can only function in a single player game since things are only scary when you are alone. If you are ever play a game you know it is more fun to play with a friend but you also know it is less scary since you and your friend will make jokes and talk throughout it. A state of loneliness is what creates fear since it makes you feel defenceless. Combat is important the worse the combat t...

Video Games Opinion article: Where are the ladies at?

Video games are everywhere these days, more so than in 2001 when the GameCube was released, now with 3 competitive platforms for gaming, the Xbox 360, PS3 and the PC, video games are becoming a prominent part of everyone’s lives. Luckily most games these days are good value for money and aren’t just out to extort as much money as possible from their consumer. Back when games were still relatively ...

Free To Play Games & How they counter piracy.

Since there is a piracy problem I thought I should create this Free To Play Games list: Star Trek Online or STO is my favourite since it gets updated regularly and it is fun. The ground combat has gotten better since release and also the space combat is as fun as ever. The customisation is phenomenal. Any Trekkie needs this.  We’ve come a long way since Star Trek Online first launched in Feb...

Should Mistwalker stop making exclusives games?

Should Mistwalker stop making exclusives games?

opinion: I just thought about it recently. Mistwalker, the company featuring basically the A-team from Square Enix and Final Fantasy games have solely made exclusives games for a particular console or device and never have ported that game. They first began with the Xbox 360, developing Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey. Next they went to Nintendo DS with a few games including some Blue Dragon spin-off...

The War On Video Games?

One of the hot topics that continues to rage on in the United States today is guns, violent media, particularly violent video games.

2012: The Year of Minecraft

2012: The Year of Minecraft

2012 really was Minecraft’s year. Well, Minecraft and the Mayan calendar. Why was 2012 all about Minecraft? There’s the obvious answer: the PC and iOS versions released at the tail end of 2011 while the Xbox version released in Spring of 2012, but that answer is no fun.

How The Interactive Industry Is Failing Women

How The Interactive Industry Is Failing Women

The more I think about it, the angrier I become. This, I’m told, is a very ugly trait for a woman. All I can say is that the whole thing is incredibly cyclical, and is spiraling into a point where women are shoved aside to cater to the needs of ...

Interview: Oddworld Strangers Wrath HD Vita &Preview

I am a massive, massive Oddworld fan. This is a fact that my family, friends and even work mates know of and when we were given the opportunity to chillax with the awesome developers over at Just Add Water Developments, I instantly exploded with a raging mushroom cloud of excitement.
