Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn Trailer Revealed, Makes Me Pine For The Jackson/Blomkomp Movie
Hesitant recruit looking for Master Chief for inspiration. PST.
One of the most disappointing non-events in the past decade of gaming was that the Peter Jackson-produced/Neil Blomkomp-helmed Halo film fell right through the cracks. Microsoft disappointed everyone because they just wouldn’t foot the bill for the project themselves (despite sitting on billions of dollars in cash reserves then and now), expecting other studios to put up the funds for the project’s big budget and then agree to an intensely binding creative vision that Bungie and Microsoft would oversee. Well, no one bit (at least not for long) and that project, along with years of progress and millions of dollars invested, flushed right away in an instant. I hate Microsoft for it. But, it seems Microsoft has been infatuated with that dream ever since…
Watch This! Assassin’s Creed III “Boston” Playthrough & Hitman Absolution “Streets of Hope” Playthrough
Boom! Just released playthrough videos of Assassin’s Creed III from San Diego Comic-Con and Hitman Absolution from E3. Both of these games look sick and I will be picking them up but I am an Assassin’s Creed fan so I’m gonna have to say that AC3 is looking way hotter. I’ve got a little beef with both games though that may just be picky or you may be wondering the same thing. Nonetheless, take a seat and enjoy. Read the rest of this article…
Ikariam – Strategy On The Web, That WORKS! Also, Ambrosia Giveaway.
Build your island, expand your territory, grow your empire.
The people at Gameforge contacted me about Ikariam and asked me if I wanted to check out their game, after a major update. I thought “meh, I don’t really care for web based games because they always seem like they’re not quite finished and they don’t really ever seem to work very well”.
I do, however, enjoy reviewing games – good or bad – so I figured I’d buckle in and take her for a spin. To be honest, I’m glad I did.
Bro, EA Wants You To Play Medal Of Honor: Warfighter’s Multiplayer, yo!
Oh, it’s all quiet and recreational until someone gets the Osprey.
We didn’t get to see as much of Medal of Honor: Warfighter at this past E3 as we would’ve liked, because EA forgot our invitation, but we don’t feel too terribly bad about it anymore. The guys who created Medal of Honor, which made this whole pop-action military fighting genre popular, went on to do Call of Duty, but then came back to do, uh, something. Meanwhile, the Medal of Honor team has struggled to bring a winner to the fold while Call of Duty continues to win the hearts and minds of gamers. Well, we have a big heart for the underdog (as ironic as that sounds), and we’ve included the new multiplayer trailer for the game’s Fire Team mode and a new Vietnamese setting.
The Older Gamers – For Older Gamers!
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote an article about the oldest group in gaming history. It’s awesome to think about a group of gamers who have been around for almost a quarter of a century and have been active that whole time.
A few days ago, another gaming group came to my attention and they’re also an old gaming group but in a different way…They’re not old because they’ve been around for a quarter of a century, they’re old because in order to be a member, YOU have to have been around for a quarter of a century.

EA Brings Us 20 Minutes Of Dead Space 3
In snow, no one can hear you scream…
I can only presume that this twenty minute slice of Dead Space 3 is what we would’ve seen at E3 had EA not forgotten our invitations. Regardless, they’re now unveiling a huge chunk of their new snow-bound Dead Space sequel and it seems the more things change, the more they look like Gears of War. Wait, hang on…

Frag Dolls Open Casting Call, Right Now!
The Frag Dolls, the gamer girls that kick-ass in video games, are looking for a new team member and it can be you! That is if you are a girl. I was super disappointed when I saw that stipulation also. I thought maybe I could wear a wig but it would be hard for me to disguise my deep manly voice and I’m too lazy to shave my neck beard. If you are a girl and you read our website and you like to kick-ass in videos games then take a look at what is required for you to become the next Frag Doll. Read the rest of this article…
Angry Birds Trilogy For Xbox 360, PS3, 3DS Is Simply A Bridge Too Far
Look, I get it. Rovio is trying to conquer the world. They’ve made exactly one successful franchise, populated it with similar titles, and they’re taking their success all the way to the bank and beyond, to the burger joint behind it. But the Finnish game-maker knew there was still virgin territory to exploit Angry Birds in, and they’ve found the final frontier: home consoles. Excited? Woo…
