Portal Speed Run: Under 10 minutes

December 14, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This 15 minute video is a demo of the Portal Speed Run. Before you yell “For science, you monster!” yes, the player does make use of glitches. In fact, you can find a list of glitches deployed here. There a lot. Be prepared to spend a lot of time watching elevator doors. They’re clearly the […]

The full Batman: Arkham City trailer

December 13, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

If you had visited Geek Native quickly enough you would have spotted the initial Batman: Arkham City teaser trailer looked an awful lot like a crayon factory. Be rest assured this is not a clever marketing ploy by Rocksteady. No. It was the wrong video. In order to make up for that little video shuffle […]

Skyrim trailer: Elder Scrolls 5

December 13, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We have nearly a year to wait for Elder Scrolls 5. It’s due out on the 11/11/11. We’ve also got Mass Effect 3 due out in 2011. I’m sure we’ll have a new Assassin’s Creed as well. This is the rise of the RPG. The elder scrolls talk of the rise of the RPG and […]

Little Mermaid’s Part Of Their World vs WOW’s Part of Your Guild

December 9, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Le sigh! Some people have some too much talent. I actually picked this post up from Nerd Bastards who noted the talents but also her “twin cannons”. Dear me. If we’re going to talk about talent then let’s focus on the voice. How impressive is this parody? It really is something special. Trust me. Listen. […]

Batman: Arkham City – Teaser Trailer

December 9, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

There’s not much to do here except sit back and watch. Rocksteady studios (who’s PR people are yet to get in touch with Geek Native! Dear me) have decided that a teeny tiny Batman: Arkham City trailer is the way to go. Yeah, just in case it’s not clear, Arkham City is the sequel to […]

Gaikai launches

November 18, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Dave Perry‘s Gaikai could be very big. It’s one of the few companies that are looking to bring gaming to the cloud. Why pay for an expensive console, a suped up computer or even why pass for expensive spinny discs when you could use a mundane machine to tap into Gaikai’s fat servers and play […]

Star Trek’s Enterprise in Minecraft. Full size.

October 18, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you given into the temptation to try Minecraft yet? I’ve got as far as starting the game for free, without registering and smashing a few holes into the ground. In just so those few seconds I could easily see why a certain type of builder geek would become addicted. It’s with addiction in mind […]

Facebook RPG: Endless Chaos

October 16, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s still quite a lot of interest in D&D Tiny Adventures vanishing from Facebook. I can see people visiting Geek Native’s coverage of the story from back in May. I think that proves there is demand for a good RPG on Facebook. The folk at Peerflux have a new candidate for the unclaimed title of […]
