Do the NeverDead teaser videos live up to expectations?

January 31, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather liked the pitch and artwork from NeverDead. We had a hero who could not die. A world living under threat of a demonic plague. We had action and angst in equal measure. I’m not sure about the teaser videos they’ve released though. The game looks too chaotic for my tastes. First up is […]

NeverDead teasers

January 25, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The hero is Bryce Boltzman who was cursed with enternal life after daring to challenge the Demon King once before. The game is expected to play heavily on the “can’t die” aspect for Byrce – look to him using his own limbs as clubbing weapons, or throwing his gun holding hand into a pile of monsters and then pulling the tigger and he may even throw his head up onto a roof…

Sega find a new business stream – urinal game consoles

January 20, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did you imagine Sega would return to the hardware business and start building consoles again? Okay. Perhaps you did… for the sake of argument let’s say you did. Did you imagine Sega would start to build $2,000 urinals though? And build games into them? Actually, I’m not sure we want to know!

Zombie Lydia shadows me around Skyrim

January 5, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Glitch hunting can be fun. Here’s one I recorded in Skyrim. Having lost one follower, Stenvar, to vampires I was alarmed when his replacement and my first Housecarl, Lydia, flew past me and off the side of the hill after failing to get out of the way of a giant and his club. Good news! […]

Game of Thrones: Winter trailer

December 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve had teasers for Atlus’s forthcoming Game of Thrones computer RPG already – such as The Wall. This latest video from the studio is longer and is rather more of a trailer than a teaser. It’s simply called “Winter”. The trailer introduces the game, planting the action firmly in the drama we already know and […]
