Announced way back in 2009 alongside Trackmania 2, Shootmania was pitched as Nadeo applying their “customise anything” approach to gaming to the arena-shooter genre. Since then there has been complete silence but Nadeo have finally loosened up and let us see what exactly is going on with this bizarre game. First off, Nadeo seem to have targeted the burgeoning E-sports [...]
With Mech Warrior Online, Mech Warrior Tactics, Hawken, and Armoured Core V all on the way, the mech genre has gone from basically non-existent to springing back into life. Now the last developer to actually make a game set in the Battletech universe, Day 1 Studios, are throwing their hat back into the ring with Reign of Thunder. Like Mech [...]
An SSX demo has just gone up on the Xbox 360 and will be available tomorrow on the SEN/PSN. It will allow you to race in the California Rockies while a trick course set in New Zealand will also be on offer. The demo is fully online enabled but you do need to have an Origin account (or your old [...]
At twenty-two Rory McIlroy has won the US Open, represented Europe at the Ryder Cup, and came agonisingly close to winning the U.S. Masters at Augusta last year. Suffice to say, I am pretty jealous because at twenty-two I was working on a golf course rather than playing on one. I also wasn’t going out with Caroline Wozniaki so there’s [...]
If you like the increasingly lacklustre (I think we are talking Heroes level of quality degradation) Walking Dead tv show then you will probably have seen the new Mass Effect 3 trailer that just aired. Unless, of course, that is you are not American and are still up in Europe. If this is the case then you are completely free [...]
I post a location video promoting the Siberia track in SSX earlier this week but it featured no gameplay. That issue has been rectified by this new trip of location videos which are composed entirely of people actually playing the game. Given how depressing the initial reveal of SSX is, this looks so much closer to the SSX we all [...]
Veteran game writer Drew Karpyshyn has announced that he is to leave Bioware and the games industry and will instead focus on projects in the world of films and books. Karpyshyn has worked at Bioware since 2000 and cut his teeth on the outstanding Baldur’s Gate 2 before moving on to working on KOTOR, Jade Empire and being responsible for [...]
Yes. That’s right. E.A. are planning to attach several copies of the highly anticipated end to Shepard’s adventure into orbit using weather balloons. The audacious and pretty insane marketing stunt could also net you a free copy of the game if you track the copies of the game via GPS on masseffect.com. The wording from E.A. implies that it will [...]
We are coming into the home stretch with Rockstar’s Max Payne 3 (it releases May 18th) and a new trailer has shed a bit more light on what will take the noir detective from the dead of night in New York to the sun-soaked streets of Sao Paulo. Like everything in Max Payne’s life the trouble has started with a [...]
The intriguing exploration game Journey will finally see release on the thirteenth of March for the PS3. I got a chance to play in the limited beta of this one almost a year ago and have been eagerly looking forward to it since. The game comes from Flow and Flower creator Jenova Chen and he says that he “can’t describe [...]
