Captain America: Super Solider trailer
Captain America: Super Solider is a third person action game from Sega. You get to play Captain America in an adventure written by Christos Gage – who heads up Marvel’s Avengers: The Initiative. Gage’s story is designed so that setting overlaps with the movie but includes new twists designed to enhance gameplay. Marvel and Sega […]
Saints Row – Professor Genki ad is utterly bonkers
I’m not sure what to say about this ad for Sants Row – The Third. It is an ad. They’re paying to have people watch this. I can tell you this is Professor Genki’s Hyper Ordinary Pre-Order Pack but I can’t helped you with what “Hyper Ordinary” actually means. As for the ad, well, there’s […]

The Lord of the Rings movie with War in the North trailer
This is why many people will give the LoTR RPG a go. This trailer for the game is a mashup with the Lord of the Rings movies along with War in the North gameplay. Two thumbs up to the skillful blending of the two. I think the official word to describe this trailer is “touchpoints” […]
Dragon Age 2: Legacy trailer
Legacy is a DLC for Dragon Age 2. It deals with the thorny issue of magic seals on a prison beginning to fade – and all the trouble that sort of situation is bound to create. What’s your view of Dragon Age 2? Is it BioWare at its best? Everything you hoped for in a […]
Dragons Dogma trailer
In the spirit of “It’s not an RPG – its a non-linear fantasy adventure” comes Dragons Dogma from Capcom. To be fair to Capcom, this is a fighting game, it’s a romp across an open world and pulls on the MT Framework engine. That’s the beast behind the lighting effects and graphics of Resident Evil […]
War in the North: Beleram
I’ve given War in the North plenty of coverage on Geek Native because it’s a Lord of the Rings game. The one franchise to rule them all. There’s been a common theme; heroes get in big strike, wonderful giant eagle swoops in and saves them. I was wondering whether this was a “call in an […]
Rise of Nightmares trailer
This blogger isn’t all that into horror games… well, except for anything Cthulhu flavoured, or perhaps BioShock and DeadSpace, so, erm, not really into horror games unless they’re touch with the holy goodness of RPGism. One of the reasons I struggle with some horror games is – even though I see it coming – I’ll […]
Sony announce new PS3 model
There is a new PlayStation 3 on it’s way. It’ll be released in Japan at least and the official page is up with all the details. We’re looking at a new PS3 that consumes less power, is lighter in weight and has a 320 gigabyte hard disk. The pricing looks to be about the same […]
