No room for nostalgia as gamers prefer modern consoles for music

June 16, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It may be fashionable to do retro console style covers of modern songs or A Capellas on YouTube but Geek Native’s research shows that gamers associate more modern consoles with the best music. 86 gamers answered the poll in the blog’s Jeff Penny competition. It should be noted that the blog makes no claim the […]

Afro Samurai 2: Revenge of Kuma

June 13, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Ahead of E3 we’ve got the first official trailer for Redacted Studios and Versus Evil’s Afro Samurai 2. The trailer suggests there’s plenty of influence from the original anime and manga roots in the game. The story picks up from where the last game finished as we deal with Kuma on a bloody quest to […]

Shotgun wielding Revenant: Doom trailer

May 25, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Bethesda Softworks’ Doom trailer is just a heartbeat or two long. That’s still probably enough time to die in the hands of this shotgun wielding Revenant. The game has had some delays, is no longer known as Doom 4 but is expected out for the PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 some time in the […]

Christopher Lloyd is brilliant as Doc Brown in LEGO Dimensions ad

May 25, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Pre-alpha gameplay sneak at Warhammer: End Times Vermintide!

March 4, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fancy a look at what Fatshark and Games Workshop are putting together? Warhammer: End Times Vermintide is a first person shooter-meets-melee combat game. This is very early footage and the final game almost certainly will not be like this. In this clip we see the heroes on the streets of Ubersreik in an attempt to […]

Reef Social leak for Destiny

February 26, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Matt Martin over at VG247 has a good write up and video of what the leaked screens for the next Destiny upgrade might mean. In summary it looks like the House of Wolves will bring a new social area to Destiny. As roleplayers, Geek Native knows what this means – we’ll have two “headquarters” for […]

Streaming Xbox content to Windows 10 looks neat

January 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DI4QVOaLCWk This looks good. For a start; all the Windows machines in my little flat are on Windows 7 or above so that means Windows 10 upgrades will be free. There are two Xboxes in the same flat. The old Xbox 360 and the older Xbox 360. That’s not so good. I’d need an Xbox […]

Elder Scrolls Online will launch on consoles without fees

January 22, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There will be no subscription fees for Xbox One or PlayStation 4 players of the Elder Scrolls MMORPG. PC users have had their subscriptions dropped too. The launch cinematic is pretty darn impressive too. A titanic battle. You can pre-order the The Elder Scrolls Online at sites like Amazon already. The PlayStation 4 version and […]
