Leisure Suit Larry On GOG? YEP!
Oh, Larry…You’re such a schmuck.
Leisure Suit Larry has just been announced as the 500th game to be featured on GOG.COM, and that’s hot because Leisure Suit Larry is one of the best adventure game series of all time, from a time before time…A time before all this…
SimCity Beta Videos Leaked Online, Watch While You Can
I wish I was playing it right now!
March 5th is a day that most of us at FEZ can’t wait for. This is the day the new SimCity game comes out. N is the most excited of us all, trying to get into the closed beta without any luck. The people that do get in to the beta are supposed to be reporting bugs and not videos but luckily for us, they have. These videos show how awesome the game is going to be. It still looks like the SimCity I’m used to but, way better. Read the rest of this article…
Gas Powered Games: Fund Our ‘Wildman’ Kickstarter Or Everyone Gets Laid Off
An emotionally-charged call for help.
None of us enjoy watching a well-meaning Kickstarter effort fail. Whether it’s the little guy with the great idea or the haggard ancients piecing together a new piece of RPG lore, there are plenty of success stories, but there are plenty of failures that don’t get much attention. Being a haggard ancient, the campaign for Gas Powered Games’ new MOBA/tower defense title ‘Wildman’ was already getting some attention, but only a few days in, GPG’s head honcho Chris Taylor, whom you remember from Total Annihilation, Dungeon Siege, and most recently for finishing Age of Empires Online, came online in an update to potential Kickstarter investors, nearly in tears.
Journalistic Responsibility – Games And Gamers
If it ain’t ethical, STFU!
By now, the word is all over the place regarding the ambush of Rod “Slasher” Breslau by Evil Geniuses members on Inside the Game. (If not, you can find a PC Gamer article about it, including the twitch video, here)
There are a lot of opinions flying around about thow this was handled and what responsibilities journalists have in regards to reporting news. What should be reported, what shouldn’t be reported, what kinds of things we should and shouldn’t tell the public.
Of course, I have an opinion on this…And I’m going to share it.
Warface – A New Free To Play FPS – Enters Closed Beta. Includes New Trailer!
LET ME SEE YOUR WAR FACE…AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHH!
Lately, we’ve been getting hit with a lot of free to play titles. I like this. I wrote a while back about how it seems some of the developers and publishers out there have finally pulled their heads from their hindparts and realized that consumers have been getting charged way too much for games, for a very long time.
It’s not that we don’t want to buy games, it’s that paying $60 plus tax is a little painful.
So when I see that Crytek and Trion Worlds are getting ready to release yet another F2P title into the wild – one that looks really good, no less – I get a warm fuzzy feeling in my black little heart and I just have to talk about it.
PlayStation 3 Finally Surpasses Xbox 360 Shipments Worldwide, Right As No One Cares Anymore
Two quick redesigns help Sony push hardware quick.
It’ll take two years. Eighteen months. Three years. Six months. What do all of these timeframes have in common? That’s how quickly Sony’s PlayStation 3 was going to surpass Microsoft’s Xbox 360. Despite launching a year after Microsoft’s console, Sony was heavily favored to quickly stomp out the competition because of its unprecedented success of the PlayStation 2, well over the counts of the original Xbox, Nintendo’s Gamecube and, sadly, Sega’s Dreamcast. Those timetables came and went, taking Sony a full six years before they could claim the crown to the now third-place Xbox 360.
Obama Presses Assault Rifle Ban And Now Wants To Investigate Video Games, Too?
Less QQ, Moar Pew Pew!
I’m not usually one to get on a political soap box and spread my personal views about these things to the whole world but in this case, I figure I’d better get this out while I’m still legally able to do so. The way things are going, it might not be too long before I no longer have the right to share my opinion and tell you that I think the people who are in charge of this country right now are a bunch of blithering idiots and it’s truly surprising to me that they have the mental acuity to open a box of Ritz Crackerfuls without causing themselves grievous injury.

So, we all remember the tons of fun we had at E3 2012 and now we’re scant months away from E3 2013.

My impressions of Kentucky Route Zero: Act 1
I’ve honestly played a lot of various interactive stories throughout my time playing PC games, many of which were made during the mid-to-late 90’s when 2D sprite based games and point-and-click adventures were considered mainstream. It wasn’t hard to look back and find various examples of narrative driven puzzle games or interactive stories as it were. Sure they had puzzles, but they weren’t based solely around just those puzzles. They were there to tell us a story, and give us a unique look inside the hero’s/heroine’s head.
