Heroes of Ruin walkthrough and teaser

October 30, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Heroes of Ruin looks like it might be one to watch. I choose not to be alarmed by the fact that’s a game for the 3DS; after all, I can turn the 3D off (well; I could if I had a 3DS). The strength of Heroes of Ruin on the Nintendo 3DS is in the […]

Does Tower Defense meet Assassin’s Creed in Revelations?

October 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The latest video sneak peak into Assassin’s Creed: Relevations seems to conjure up images of Asssasins and Tower Defense. Ezio has a “Den Defense” challenge in which he has to keep the Templars out from the dens of the Ottoman assassins. The better the assassins do then the greater their morale but the difficulty of […]

Skyrim’s Live Action trailer gets M17 rating

October 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

The ESRB content rating given to the live action Skyrim trailer is the mighty mature 17+. Give the video a watch and try and spot the blood and gore, intense violence, sexual themes or the use of alcohol. Okay, if you read the YouTube comments then the 17+ rating might make sense. User Nabbo99 decided […]

Need for Speed: The Run – movie or game?

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m not really a fan of driving games – mainly because I’m rubbish at them. I remember all to well when one Project Gotham game had to tell me it could not find anyone worse or of the same skill level on the servers to race with; it could only find people better than me. […]

The Innunedo laden Sims 3 Pets ad

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you seen the latest Sims 3 Pets advert? It’s quirky. I rather like it. However, I wonder what reflection that has one me. In one scene there’s a French Maid grooming a dog and we’re told “Have a pet or be a pet”. In the background there’s a naked dude in the bathtub. We’re […]

October 12, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

EA have released a video for Mark of the Assassin. This is DLC for Dragon Age II. It’s also timed to support the web series Dragon Age Redemption. You can watch the first episode of Redemption here. If you think the assassin in Mark of the Assassin looks a lot like Felicia Day and Tallis […]

The Darkness II trailer

October 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Born from the Witchblade franchise is the Darkness. It features hitmail Jackie Estacado who is possessed by the ancient force – the Darkness. It gives him the power to be scary and kick ass, Estacado isn’t really one of the good guys and has pretty much everyone after him. If you want to catch up […]

Sega give away free Rise of Nightmares comic

September 30, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Back in June we published a rather weird video from Sega called Rise of Nightmares. It’s a horror survival game with plenty of WTF. In order to promote the game they teamed up author Al Ewing and artist Marc Olivent to put together a free comic for it. It shows the side story of Private […]

How do you get the Rage: Anarchy edition?

September 30, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 4 Comments

The Anarchy edition of Rage is available to anyone who pre-orders it. It’s a special edition in that not everyone will have it and that it has extra content. It’s not a special edition in the sense that you need to pay any more for it. If you pre-order Rage then you’ll get one extra […]

Does the Final Fantasy XIII-2 trailer do anything for you?

September 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

I’m sure there are many gamers really played that Square Enix are giving us a chance to return to Final Fantasy XIII and the game. There are some of us scratching our heads, though. Was the game really that good? Did one or two roleplayers give up, bored of farming the grasslands for XP, before […]
