I have downloaded and thoroughly stomped through the demo of Supreme Commander. The demo opens with a decent sci-fi intro movie and soon enough gets into the killing. I played through the campaign demo games first as I like to slowly be introduced to units through a story. I could have jumped right into a […]
World of Warcraft Action Figures
DC Comics is branching out their action figure department, which as they announced recently will include World of Warcraft action figures. Thank god, is all I can say, as now when you’re simply forced to go on that family vacation to the middle of no-where with absolutely not contact to the internet, you can continue […]
Fallout 3 is in Good Hands
The Escapist has an excellent retrospective on our friends at Bethesda Softworks, which looks back at their entire history as well as what’s in store for their future. You should already know, but Bethesda Softworks is the company behind the Elder Scrolls series, most notably of late the award winning fourth game in the series, […]
Supreme Commander Demo – Get it Now!
If you haven’t heard of this game yet, it is a new RTS game coming out later this month from Gas Powered Games (the people who brought us Dungeon Seige) that promises to be the revolution of the genre. It features (very) large and small scale battles with mechs, tanks, and ships (maybe planes?). The […]
Eff Jack Thompson
This is a couple days old but perhaps you haven’t heard. Jack Thompson may be disbarred! w00t! Courtesy Slashdot.
1Up Pulls Through
Over dinner on this fine sunday…day, my lovely wife pointed out a very enlightening article to me. It is 1Up’s examination of the similarities between the launch of the PS2 back in 2000 and the PS3 just a few short months ago. You should definitely read the full thing, but I will point out some […]
Burning Regions and Wasted Content
WoW Insider has a nice article about what the (pre-expansion) instance bosses are up to now that they have become in almost all senses useless and unneccesary, and they offer up some basic suggestions for Blizzard to make them relevant again. It is really a huge shame that the end-game content millions of people have […]
The Cardinal Sin of Multiplayer Videogames (as demonstrated by Rayman's Raving Rabbids)
I’m probably using “cardinal sin” wrong here, but it’s certainly the highest issue on my list. I mainly buy videogames for multiplayer, which is one of the main reasons that I love the Wii so much. I’m sure the PS3 and Xbox 360 will have some good multiplayer titles, but I know I’m not going […]
YouTube of the Week: Finals Fantasy Edition
Another verification that I had a good idea because the idea is used again! This time, an epic series (four parts clocking in at over 40 minutes) doing a live action Final Fantasy game set on a college campus. The first time they entered combat I cracked up. Final Fantasy jokes, stop motion gags, and, […]
Inq. of the Week: Biggest Dissapointment
Alright, we’ve gone far too long with “hopeful predictions” and “joyous gifts.” It’s time to bring the hate. What was your biggest disappointment of a purchase in the previous year?
