Augmented Reality on the PS Vita looks surprisingly good

November 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

No sooner do I get through reading that Hong Kong has gone crazy for PlayStation Vita pre-orders than I stumble across this video. Now, before we get to the video and with respect to Ben Parfitt’s article; I agree with the sentiments expressed by Nicholas Lovell during The London Games Conference. He said handheld consoles […]

Final Fantasy XIII-2’s Muramasa

November 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A rather interesting looking weapon picture from the forthcoming Final Fantasy XIII-2 has surfaced. Yeah, sure, many weapons from Final Fantasy are a bit interesting in design but this “Muramasa” has a story behind it. If you pre-order your copy of Final Fantasy XIII-2 from Amazon.co.uk then you qualify for the Muramasa. It’s an exclusive. […]

Dizzy Egg back from the dead?

November 22, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Dizzy Egg was a charsimatic platform game. You played a plucky egg who needed to … well, spoilers! Attention has been drawn to this mysterous URL: EggcitingNews.com . This might leads one to speculate Mr Egg may be making a return. What do you think? There’s also this teaser video. Seems pretty conclusive to me. […]

Before Rabbids – the Rayman Origins

November 21, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

No question; the Rabbids were one of Wii’s most important successes. They had crazy, cute and fun party games that were easy to pick up, laugh at and either put down when the beer ran out or get obsessed by a play all night. That’s gaming perfection. The Rabbids, though, are a spin-off. They came […]

Blood on the Game Dice

November 20, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How functional is your gaming group? Wait. Don’t be harsh. I don’t think that’s an oxymoron – there’s too many words, for a start. The truth is that some gaming groups get along well, some are chaotic but generally line up but then there are some that are so fractional it’s amazing any gaming goes […]
