Bioshock Infinite Trailer Drops
The first Bioshock game was released in 2007 with plenty of well-deserved praised. An eerie touch across the game, with enemies dropping from the ceilings, others running around or hiding, and sometimes scaring the hell out of you in the process. That year, I wasn’t too impressed with anything being released, but I remember a [...]

This weekend, Indianapolis, Indiana is the place to be! GenCon got underway yesterday morning, opening the Indianapolis Expo hall doors to thousands of drooling game lovers from all across the world.

One of the holy grails of the cinematic world has always the perfection of the 3D viewing experience. In the past few years (thanks to the likes of Avatar), there has been a resurgence in 3D cinema with the development of the Digital 3D technology, and its related rendering and exhibition processes. As there is [...]

I bet about half of you have played Ultimate Alliance II and the other half haven’t. I hadn’t till I picked it up a couple of weeks ago, but sure enough, half my friends had. This is Spoiler Alert and this is the article for that half that just haven’t gone down that road just [...]

Friday, July 9, 2010
About two weeks ago, I was talking to one of my coworkers while I was at my day job. Just normal, mind-numbing conversation. Then he asked, “Hey, are you a gamer?” It kind of stopped me in my tracks. At first, I didn’t really know how to answer, but I mumbled out, “Yeah, I play [...]

Dungeons & Dragons is a game that carries more social stigma and stereotyping than some racial slurs, but does it really deserve the bad rap? I grew up as a member of an overly strict Christian denomination that deemed just about everything fun to be a sin. Women couldn’t cut their hair, or wear anything besides dresses that [...]

You’ll remember that pretty much the entire purpose of this series is to highlight that many different styles and genres of games that are out there. The ultimate statement of whether or not one is truly a “gamer” is essentially just a side note on the way to introducing people to all the various forms of fun [...]

Tuesday, May 11, 2010
This past Thursday and Friday (May 6 and 7), I had the joyous privilege of attending the second annual Game Developers Conference Canada in Vancouver. In attending for the first time, I held high expectations in comparison to what I know takes place in GDC (in the Bay Area); however, GDC Canada 2010 fell far short [...]

Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) games have a certain stigma about them. The fact that you have to spend hours upon hours to level up and upgrade a character’s level/weapons (respectively) doesn’t entirely help selling the game to new users. Take an MMO like World of Warcraft for instance: simple starting zone, an ease to guide [...]

At least, that’s what Games Workshop would have you believe. In the 41st Millenium, the fate of the human race is placed solely in the hands of the Space Marines and the Imperial Guard. Fighting under the banner of the Emperor. Assaulted on all sides by all variety of deep space horrors, like the mighty Orks or [...]

…That Will Make You Really Hard …And Die Happy It would be easy to say crossover video games are the greatest games ever. Well, it would be easy to say that if they were. Sadly, crossover games have never really pushed farther than crossing over a bunch of characters from other games into a whole new game [...]

Wednesday, March 31, 2010
While walking around the PAX East exhibition hall this past Sunday, I heard a sultry Scottish accent coming over a loudspeaker. Following its dulcet tones, I managed my way over to the EA booth. Initially met with my standard skepticism, the game being demonstrated soon caught my apt attention. After getting a chance to play [...]
