R.A. Salvatore is just one of the famous names associated with the secret once known as “Project Mercury”. We’re actually talking about Kingdoms: of Amalur: Reckoning and both Spawn‘s Todd McFarlane and Morrowind & Oblivion’s Ken Rolston are also involved. This is an open world RPG. In fact, it’s a world created be R.A. Salvatore, […]

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record – erotica and zombies?
Dead Rising was one of the original zombie hits. Since Geek Native is a slave to Left 4 Dead (L4D1, at least) we like to look at other possible zombie hits. There’s that. There’s also the fact the official fact sheet from Capcom for Dead Rising talks about awarding players with Prestige Points for photographs […]
Space Marine: The Universe – Behind the Scenes
I’ve got to admit that Relic and THQ seem to have captured Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 franchise. This behind the scenes trailer is full of developers saying they respect the “IP”. In order words, they respect the intellectual property owned by Games Workshop (a company famous for sending the IP lawyers in). You could argue […]
Everything is True
Everything is True is a rather brave rather from EA and Funcom for The Secret World. It’s brave (not because it runs to the end without snagging) as it spends most of the three minutes showing us nothing. There’s some teaser clips from the game at the start but then we move on to the […]
Spider-man: Edge of Time trailer
I think the Spider-man: Edge of Time trailer is looking pretty good. There’s certainly an element of grit in this one – does this foreshadow the direction the new wave of Spider-man films will go? It’s not “who watches the watchmen?” but “who saves the hero” and in an time-related action game you don’t need […]
Dungeons and Dragons Daggerdale: Fighter Trailer
Atari have released the latest trailer for Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale. This time around we focus on the Fighter. There’s about 50 seconds in the short trailer, just enough to give you a sample of the melee action and the GUI. Looks like they’re trying to keep it as streamlined as possible in order to […]
Dungeon Siege III: Lucas Montbarron introduction
Square Enix have published a video introduction to Lucas Montbarron. It’s an effective way to check out the game play in Dungeon Siege III. There’s just the suggestion that they’ve managed to get the best bits from Dungeon Siege I and from Dungeon Siege II and successfully mash them together. Let’s hope so! What do […]
LoTR War in the North: Combat trailer
This video from Snowblind is all about the combat in the Lord of the Rings action RPG “War in the North”. The concept for the trailer / documentary is pretty simple. The Snowblind team argue that in the Lord of the Rings book combat was pretty brutal. The War in the North is supposed to […]
Can you win a PlayStation 3 by giving Sackboy a hat?
Geek Native readers may well have spotted Sackboy popping up now and then on this blog. For example, back in October he was featured holding a cute X10 mini. There are currently three Sackboys in the flat. Is that too many? I suspect Sony would say we could fit one or two more in the […]
Mass Effect 2: The Arrival trailer
Mass Effect 2 is still big news among gamer geeks. This isn’t simply due to the fact that we can sense the arrival of Mass Effect 3. It’s because Mass Effect 2 still holds our attention and we’ve only just got news of Mass Effect: Arrival. The first bit of DLC for the franchise in […]
