There can be very little doubt as to the importance of the LittleBigPlanet series is to PlayStation in the West. Over here, away from Japan, the Xbox gives the PS3 absolute hell. Sony’s actually gone ahead and bought Media Molecule the developers behind LBP. It’s no surprise, then, that the effort that’s gone into LBP2 […]

Here’s the blurb; In a world where freedom is nothing more than a dream, Albion’s oppressed and downtrodden citizens desperately need a hero.

Criminal Girls RPG in pictures
Thanks you guys (and I suspect not you girls). A few days ago I posted about a quirky RPG that could have only come out of Japan. Criminal Girls is an RPG where you punish girls to save them from the tower of hell. The post has been this weeks most popular entry on Geek […]
What If Video Games had a “Super Easy Mode”?
Let’s face it, the classic age of 8 & 16-Bit gaming had some real hurt lockers compared to a lot of modern games. The humble difficulty setting, the stalwart of any modern game worth it’s salt, was conspicuous by it’s absence. College Humor has taken a look at what it would be like if there […]
Criminal Girls: RPG Where You Punish Girls
This RPG was born in Japan. Something tells me it will stay in Japan. One of Image Epoch‘s new PSP RPGs has the title “RPG Where You Punish Girls” or “Criminal Girls”. My Japanese (by which I mean Google Translate) struggles with this insider blog post. Guess what you do in it? Yup! But wait… […]
Sexy win. Kinect fail.
Microsoft always has a challenge when it tries to demo a new product in public. Give the company credit, though. They do learn. This time rather than a boring suit to demo the product they had a pair of sexy girls so we could be distracted if the motion sensor suddenly stopped working during a […]
The battle begins: Halo Reach
We knew there would be a Bungie announcement today. Okay; so the big blogs have all been supplied with video content and there’s all sorts of expert coverage. Geek Native didn’t enjoy any of that. However, we can repost the latest Halo Reach trailer that’s now wide spread all over YouTube. Just incase you’ve not […]
Enough footage of Another Century’s Episode: R that you can review the game yourself
Another Century’s Episode: R is an mecha game that evokes pretty much every single anime archetype. Perhaps it’s the same sense of thoroughness that perusaded the game makes to be so inclusive that also perusaded them to release so much in-game footage. The following two YouTube videos probably contain enough of Another Century’s Episode: R […]
First DLC for Alan Wake: The Signal
Remedy Games have every reason to be pleased with Alan Wake. It looks so good. Okay; I’ve not bought it… but that’s only because I’m forcing myself to play through Final Fantasy XIII. It feels more like a “not bought it yet”. A sign that a game is doing well is that the DLC starts […]
Silly looking Sengoku Basara samurais come to PlayStation and Blu-ray
Funimation and CapCom have got their hands on (some of) the Sengoku Basara license. The anime is coming out on blu-ray on October 12 and so is the computer game. In Europe the computer game will be out just a few days later. The problem here is that Funimation doens’t appear to have the anime […]
