Those lucky blighters at GameInformer have been treated to the first ever screen shots from Mass Effect 3. It’s almost as if their site is hugely popular compared to humble Geek Native and firmly on BioWare’s radar. At least you, dear reader, can take heed from the fact that you’re among the elite; reading a […]

Darkspore: Skar the Shadow of Death
I’ve copies of Darkspore on order but to be honest I put that pre-order based on the fact that the game is somewhat related to Spore. I’m an RPGer at heart so am a little cautious about the mosh-melee vibes I’m getting from Darkspore but do remember how much fun Dungeon Siege I was so […]
Portal 2 beats class
You know you’re working with a smart lecturer when they can spot the trends of behaviour in class. You know you’re working with a very smart lecturer when not only do they notice odd trends but quickly work out why. There’s just bonus points if that ‘why’ is a part of geek native culture. Portal […]
Bored? Try the world’s biggest Pac-Man game
We’re not talking about a super-sized Mr Pac Man here. He’s not been munching on any Mario mushrooms. Instead, the World’s Biggest Pac-Man is hundreds of screens, connected in a grid and linked. This means when you reach the end of one screen you don’t reappear on the other side; you enter the new screen. […]
Portal 2: Boots video
Turns out that Cave Johnson is willing to admit that there is a reproducible human error problem with the portal device. It’s all due to the way humans tend to land badly, especially from great heights, and the resulting damage that can occur to the portal generator. Needless to say, in order to protect the […]

Risen 2 is a single-player fantasy RPG. It’s the sequel to Risen produced by Piranha Bytes over in Germany. Dark Waters is set several years after Risen, the titans have been causing chaos and pushing mankind to the brink of existence. We have monsters rising from the depth of the ocean (see what they did […]
R.A. Salvatore’s Kingdoms of Amular trailer
R.A. Salvatore is just one of the famous names associated with the secret once known as “Project Mercury”. We’re actually talking about Kingdoms: of Amalur: Reckoning and both Spawn‘s Todd McFarlane and Morrowind & Oblivion’s Ken Rolston are also involved. This is an open world RPG. In fact, it’s a world created be R.A. Salvatore, […]
Dead Rising 2: Off the Record – erotica and zombies?
Dead Rising was one of the original zombie hits. Since Geek Native is a slave to Left 4 Dead (L4D1, at least) we like to look at other possible zombie hits. There’s that. There’s also the fact the official fact sheet from Capcom for Dead Rising talks about awarding players with Prestige Points for photographs […]
Space Marine: The Universe – Behind the Scenes
I’ve got to admit that Relic and THQ seem to have captured Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 franchise. This behind the scenes trailer is full of developers saying they respect the “IP”. In order words, they respect the intellectual property owned by Games Workshop (a company famous for sending the IP lawyers in). You could argue […]
Everything is True
Everything is True is a rather brave rather from EA and Funcom for The Secret World. It’s brave (not because it runs to the end without snagging) as it spends most of the three minutes showing us nothing. There’s some teaser clips from the game at the start but then we move on to the […]
