We delve deep into immersive tabletop roleplaying games, strategise over the latest board games, and shuffle up for compelling card games.

We also keep you plugged into the digital scene, covering highlights from the worlds of PC blockbusters and the latest releases for Nintendo, Xbox, and PlayStation. But whether you roll dice or mash buttons, our heart lies with the tabletop. Power up and dive in.

DC Universe group combat raid: The Batcave

March 4, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

If you want to check out some really impressive trailers for DC Universe then there’s Fractured Future and the intro trailer that kicked it all off. This Batcave trailer is not in the same league. Why not? Rather than being an impressive cinematic this is a trailer of actual gameplay and while the graphics are […]

Skullgirls trailer

March 4, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Skullgirls is a comic book style 2D fighter from Mike Zaimot and Alex Ahad. The pair worked on both Lava Punch and Scott Pilgrim in the past and so, although it’s a fighter, Geek Native is curious about the game. The game is being put together by Reverge Labs and it was via their CEO […]

Sesame Street: Once Upon A Monster

February 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Gosh! After getting all creepy with a visit Dead Island and grabbing the haunting soundtrack it became necessary to find something much lighter to blog out. Something lighter – like MONSTERS! Fortunately, Double Fine and Warner were at hand to roll out some Sesame Street monsters and amuse us all. Without further ado; Once Upon […]

Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War II – Retribution

February 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

If everything went according to THQ’s plan the Dawn of War II beta ran until midnight on Feb 24th. Players who had bought Dawn of War via STEAM the first time around had the chance to become a beta player for this nearly final bug round. I’m not sure if everything did go to plan […]

Preview: Small Town Hero

February 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A short while back Geek Native interviewed Al Seeger of Point of Insanity Game Studio. Al had a tendency to work on the traditional RPG equivalent of cross-platform games. He’s been working on a systemless super hero adventure called Small Town Here. We’ve grabbed a preview! Every hero needs to start somewhere. Stonewell is just […]

Orcs Must Die! Trailer

February 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Some of the team behind Halo Wars and Age of Empires set up a new game company called Robot Entertainment in 2009. Orcs Must Die! is the first original game from them. Don’t negotiate with them. Don’t just maim them. You must kill the orcs, This is the quote the CEO of Robot Entertainment, Patrick […]

Fable III: Coin Golf trailer

February 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There is a second Fable III game for Microsoft devices. That’s the Window Phone 7 Coin Golf game. Golf normally bores me to tears. What’s interesting about Fable’s Coin Golf is that it makes use of Windows Phone 7‘s ability to connect over the interwebs with Xbox Live. The incentive for messing around with this […]

It’s true! Ubisoft release adult spank and stripping game. We Dare

February 25, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I saw the video and thought it was a hoax. Then I noticed the video was on the actual Ubisoft YouTube channel. Then I noticed you can buy We Dare at Play. That’s the PS3 version and the Wii version. Here’s some of the text about the game from Play. And there’s more! You can […]

Trail of Cthulhu book cover posters

February 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

I think Jérome Huguenin Rough Magicks cover is one of my favourite Cthulhu RPG illustrations. As it happens, Pelgrane Press has it and two others for sale in A2 poster form. If I bought one… just not sure where I’d put it. On the wall behind my desk at the office? Rough Magicks Arkham Detective […]

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 […]
