An apology for The Complete Book of Elves?
The Kickstarter for Torment: Tides of Numenera is still pulling in the funds. They made a promise that designer Colin McComb would apologise for The Complete Book of Elves if they crossed the $2.5 million stretch goal. I think this is a harsh thing to ask any author or game designer to do. However, some […]
League of Legends: Fiddlesticks cosplay
This is top class cosplay. Look at the feet. Is that stilts? Perhaps so… but they’re at an angle. I can only speculate how hard it would be to balance on those. The character is Fiddlesticks from the League of Legends. He appeared after a summoning ritual gone wrong nearly twenty years ago in the […]
EA offer free game, apologise for SimCity
EA’s SimCity did not get off to a good start. EA and Maxis decided that you had to be online to play the game. That’s increasingly common these days. It’s an anti-piracy technique mainly but some games do just have online built in. The problem? EA’s servers couldn’t cope. You couldn’t actually play the game. […]
Ultima creator attempts RPG return with Shroud of the Avatar

Amazon suspend SimCity downloads, blaming EA
In an unusual twist Amazon have suspended downloads of SimCity and issued a warning about EA’s servers. In effect they’re saying; you could buy this from us but you’ll not be able to play it and then you’ll be angry at us. Instead, they’re making it clear the problem sits firmly with EA and their […]
Torment: Tides of Numenera breaks Ouya’s $1m record
Brian Fargo and Monte Cook’s Torment: Tides of Numenera has raised more than $1,000,000 and it took less than 7 hours. It funded, hitting the $900,000 mark, in about six hours. Back in July Kickstarter published top 10 quickest campaigns to hit $1m and it is closer than you might think. The Ouya, the tiny […]

Today the inevitable has happened the team up Brian Fargo and Monte Cook has launched on Kickstarter. The game is called Torment: Tides of Numenera and it’s asking for $900,000. $900,000 is a lot.

Regulators clear Activision Blizzard over any Nuketown 2025 wrong doing
UK regulators have found that Activision Blizzard did nothing wrong in how they advertised and later handled the pre-order bonus of the Nuketown 2025 bonus map for Call of Duty: Black Ops II for the Xbox. The authorities received official complaints about the advertising which argued that the map had been withdrawn too soon after […]
First screen shots from Space Hulk
Late last year Full Controll announced a deal with Games Workshop to produce both computer and mobile versions of a Space Hulk game. At the time it sounded very interesting as it offered cross-platform support. In other words, you could use your PC to play with friends on their iPads. Today we have the first […]
