Does Tower Defense meet Assassin’s Creed in Revelations?

October 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The latest video sneak peak into Assassin’s Creed: Relevations seems to conjure up images of Asssasins and Tower Defense. Ezio has a “Den Defense” challenge in which he has to keep the Templars out from the dens of the Ottoman assassins. The better the assassins do then the greater their morale but the difficulty of […]

Fat Dragon and Troll Lord go to price war

October 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A few hours ago Fat Dragon Games emailed customers to declare a flash sale. All Castle Winterhawk products would have %30 off. This is a set that allows you to build large castle or keeps out of paper. At least; I assume that’s how it works – it’s an RPGNow download. Perhaps the future we’ll […]

Dungeons and Dragons 4th ed cheat codes

October 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

Many computer games have cheat codes that the knowing can use to great advantage. Cheat codes may grant extra lives, automatically level you up or even make you impossible to kill. Never seen the attraction in them myself unless it was to power back to a place in the game you’d gotten to before some […]

The Diablo III mini-movie – the Black Soulstone

October 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This is almost a mini movie. It’s a very long trailer. I think the phrase we use now is “cinematic”. It’s a chunky slice of video to get you to invest in the Diablo III world. It certainly looks great to me! I sense Diablo III is going to be pretty gritty. In the Diablo […]

Skyrim’s Live Action trailer gets M17 rating

October 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

The ESRB content rating given to the live action Skyrim trailer is the mighty mature 17+. Give the video a watch and try and spot the blood and gore, intense violence, sexual themes or the use of alcohol. Okay, if you read the YouTube comments then the 17+ rating might make sense. User Nabbo99 decided […]

Trading sites giving away 100s of Eredan cards

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Brother and sister trading sites Trade Cards online and Miniature Trading (guess what they do) are giving away hundreds of Eredan cards. The first 100 users to email them with the answer to the following question picks up a coupon free stuff. The question is: What’s the name of the first enemies you face in […]

Need for Speed: The Run – movie or game?

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m not really a fan of driving games – mainly because I’m rubbish at them. I remember all to well when one Project Gotham game had to tell me it could not find anyone worse or of the same skill level on the servers to race with; it could only find people better than me. […]

The Innunedo laden Sims 3 Pets ad

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you seen the latest Sims 3 Pets advert? It’s quirky. I rather like it. However, I wonder what reflection that has one me. In one scene there’s a French Maid grooming a dog and we’re told “Have a pet or be a pet”. In the background there’s a naked dude in the bathtub. We’re […]

Game companies battle over Merchant of Venus

October 24, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Someone has made a mistake, an honest mistake that will leave a host of people rather upset. Fantasy Flight Games and Stronghold Games have both announced they have the license and the rights to produce a re-run of Merchant of Venus. Merchant of Venus originally came out in the 1980s as an Avalon Hill game. […]
