What’s going on with Dead Island?

February 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

First we had the Dead Island trailer which went viral almost straight away. Now we’ve had rumours and counter rumours that there will be a Dead Island movie. Right now it looks like the counter rumours are right. There will be no Dead Island movie… yet. Just in case you’ve not seen it – and […]

Crysis 2 story trailer

February 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I did not play Crysis but I’ve heard a lot about it. I heard two things; it destroys your machine and if you survive that then it is a lot of fun. The game seems to be a bit of a cross between Mass Effect and Borderlands in style. Let me justify that; there’s a […]

February 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Warner and DC have released today the first “Green Latern: Rise of the Manhunters” video game trailer. It’s been a busy day for trailers but this one is sure to stand out. The Green Latern video game is uber mega multi-platform. It’s out for the Xbox, PS3, Wii and the DS as well. I’m never […]

Will the Bulletstorm Cliffy B trailer make your head explode?

February 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s been nothing but drama about EA’s Bulletstorm. We’ve had Americans says it encourages rape and Germans censor the game. Now we’ve got a short new trailer. Things blow up. I wonder whether the “Cliffy B” trailer has been designed with TV in mind. It’s short and punchy enough. I’m still wondering whether EA will […]

Pictures from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

February 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Skyrim is the fifth in the series of Elder Scrolls RPGs from Bethesda Softworks. It’ll be out for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 and you should expect an adult, sandbox, immersive RPG. That’s if the game is anything like the first four. Skyrim is set some 200 years after the end of Oblivion and […]

Impressive! Back to the Future made in LittleBigPlanet 2

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a copy of LittleBigPlanet 2 on the table next to me that needs to get out of its wrapper and into my PlayStation 3. Needs. Must. This impressive Back of the Future video is just one of a thousand reasons why some LBP2 action is necessary this weekend. LBP2 user Rigzz has put together […]

Dungeon Siege III: Loyalty trailer

February 9, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Dungeon Siege III will be out in May 2011. That’s reason to be cheerful! It’ll be available for the PC but also for the PS3 and Xbox 360. I suspect this bashed up laptop won’t be able to run it so it’ll be a console version for me. There are some significant behind the scene […]

Bulletstorm causes insanity, encourages rape and annoys Germans

February 9, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

EA’s forthcoming game Bulletstorm seems to have having a weird effect on the world. Yesterday, Fox News (I use ‘News’ only as part of their brand, I’m not suggesting it’s an actual news site) asked Is Bulletstorm the Worst Video Game in the World? and went on to suggest that games like it encourage rape.
