Guardians of Middle-earth trailer
Imagine Middle Earth as a the setting for running battles. That’s not entirely out of character with Tolkien’s setting because there have been very many battles between the forces of good and evil. That said it’s a little strange to see Sauron running around on the battlefield (even, yes, if he did capture Dol Guldur […]
La Storia Della Arcana Famiglia anime trailer
La storia della Arcana Famiglia is a PSP game with a magical mafia – although “mafia” seems a little harsh. The Arcana Famiglia are a self-appointed group, with magical powers, that protects a small island in the Mediterranean from evils like foreign countries and pirates. The Don figure is a leader of the family known […]
The live action Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 ad
I think it’s safe to say that it can be pretty hard to create TV worthy ads for any roleplaying (or related) game. Even the best attempts can come across as cheesy. Computer game companies, I think, have had the most success and they’ve done this by simply tapping into the games themselves and letting […]

However, publishing transfered to Fantasy Productions (FanPro) after Schmidt Spiel & Freizeit GmbH suffered bankruptcy in 1997 and after Knaur backed out of the project. The license again […]
E3: Fable: The Journey
Fable: The Journey is a bold decision by Microsoft and Lionhead. We may never know how hard Peter Molyneux, Fable’s designer, had to push for this before he left the studio – or whether he objected. Fable: The Journey takes the esbalished RPG franchise is a whole new direction. It’s likely to be a Kinect-centric […]
E3: Ascend New Gods
Do watch the start of this trailer, at least, and let me know if you think it looks almost wargame like in style. I think it does. After a bit of digging, it turns out that Signal Studios, the developers, also created “Toy Soldiers” and so this makes some sense. Microsoft describe Ascend New Gods […]
