Mass Effect 3 has had an odd life-cycle. Originally announced by a loading screen in Mass Effect 2, ME3 was set to come out just a year and a half after that game. It was eventually delayed until the beginning of this year and then suffered a beta leak. Both events really set peoples tongues a-wagging, and not in a [...]
Remember just before the first Fable game came out and how Peter Molyneux and Lionhead’s PR swore until they literally couldn’t get away with it anymore that the game would have an open world to rival that of Morrowind? Remember how that turned out to be a bitterly disappointing crock of lies? Well it’s taken the best part of eight [...]
The idea of a massive cross-country race in some of the worlds most exotic sports cars is pretty appealing. It gets even more appealing when that race is against the law and completely devoid of rules. That’s the premise of Need for Speed: The Run, the return of series veteran Black Box to E.A’s long-running driving franchise. It mixes the [...]
A lot of the old guard of gamings interest was peaked by Syndicate when Starbreeze indicated that the games four player co-op would take heavy inspiration from missions in the old game. A lot of people assumed this would ultimately mean that the game would have something of the original games strategic roots. Naturally they were wrong but that doesn’t [...]
It’s an issue that has inspired fear in expectant Mass Effect fans since before the third game was officially announced.

All of those fears were running rampant until Bioware finally confirmed that multiplayer would be coming to the series [...]
“Star Wars MMORPG” – it‘s a statement that really makes sense. Offering people the chance to step into one of the most iconic fictional universes ever created is definitely an easy sell. Sony were the first to try it with Star Wars Galaxies; a game which was never able to live up to it’s premise and managed to become worse [...]
The internet. Many developers are learning that it can be quite a hostile place when you decide to take something a small hardcore love and attempt to change it. Bethesda encountered the insane community at No Mutants Allowed while 2K have been battling against the incredibly dedicated fans of Xcom. EA and Starbreeze started to feel the heat almost immediately [...]
I got a chance to see the co-Lead Designer of Uncharted 3, Richard Lamarchand playing some Uncharted 3 in Dublin recently, as well as getting a hands-on with the finished version of the games multiplayer. My chat with Richard will be coming in video-form soon enough but for now I’m going to let you in on what I made of [...]
Battlefield 3 is now just over two weeks from release but we got a chance to try out the PS3 version of the game just last Friday at a Dublin venue.

Toy Soldiers: Cold War is the last XBox Live Summer of Arcade game to release and will be hitting tomorrow. The game is a follow up to last years Toy Soldiers and ditches the World War One aesthetic in favour of going all out 1980′s. As you can see from the video the result is a perfect simulation of what [...]
