From the WTF Crossover Department…

April 18, 2008 by Dave

Many years after Capcom vs. Marvel, the other side(s) have responded! A Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe game looks to be in development (and has a brief Sub-Zero vs. Batman brawl trailer.) I suppose in video games, ridiculous crossovers will never go out of style, no matter how advanced the graphics are! Who wants to […]

“You’re a disgrace to Tauren culture,” said the shaman Lolhamburger

April 18, 2008 by Dave

Normally I don’t link to Penny Arcade, since telling gamers to read Penny Arcade is like telling ninjas to sneak around: it’s just gonna happen anyway. Today’s column is well worth reading and recommending. The results of their “Exactly 10 Words about WoW” contest were posted today. There’s some really good ones in there, both […]

Game Review: Army of Two

April 10, 2008 by guest

I had apprehensions about getting this game for awhile, mostly because EA required anyone who wanted to play the game online to have an Xbox Gold Account to do so. After letting the hype from the game cool a little I found a demo on Xbox Live and played that to wet my whistle. I enjoyed […]

Some Quick Stuffs

April 4, 2008 by Bartoneus

I can’t believe it was a year ago today that I posted my mocking comic of Dave being a french-blob game designer, but today he left again for his “secret con” that maybe he’ll find some sneaky internet lurking around out there to update us all on how it’s going. Keith Baker posted a great […]

The Castration of the LAN

April 3, 2008 by Bartoneus

Two weeks ago a bunch of us gathered to share in some X-Box LAN goodness, we managed to get about 12-14 people together with 3 tv’s, 4 x-box 360’s, one sweet-ass projector with sound system, and play a bunch of rounds of Halo 3.  There was also some Rockband on the large projector, as well […]

A New Direction

April 1, 2008 by Dave

Obviously, if Chatty has found a new source of income, we can too. For that reason, we’ve decided to change our coverage a bit here in order to deliver the news that you have been requesting for a long time. Besides, as of today, this industry just isn’t the same. ENWorld now exclusively covers OD&D. […]
