One of the biggest hits of 2008, Fallout 3 has seen high praise for their Downloadable Content, and this praise will soon come from the mouths of Sony fans as DLC hits the currently excluded PS3.

Bethesda have stated, “We have been working on implementing it for a while and look forward to bringing it to PS3 gamers via the PlayStation Network.  Operation: Anchorage will be released for PS3 in late June, followed by the release of The Pitt and Broken Steel 4-6 weeks apart.” Read more… »

Gas Powered Games holds a special place in my heart. After revolutionizing the RTS arena with Supreme Commander, it was difficult to play any other RTS that didn’t allow me to zoom out so far I could see my name in turrets. So I was pretty excited to hear about DemiGod, a DOTA styled RTS that not only allowed me to zoom in classic GPG style, but control ridiculously powerful beings and dominate my opponents in a tournament style setting.

But what I’m sure a lot of you Ancients devotees are wondering: is it the killer app you have been waiting for? I guess you’ll have to follow myself, and Colin, as we took on this multiplayer only epic to see if it could take down a DemiGod of its own.

Recently, I decided to take my dusty copy of Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn for a spin. I know that a lot of you are gasping now, or perhaps scratching your heads, but its true. This is my first play-through of the fabled series. However, I am no stranger to Bioware’s fantastic D&D based video games.

I played both Icewind Dale 1 and 2, with the later being one of my favorite gaming experiences.  What really turned me off from Baldur’s Gate when I first tried playing it nine years ago was that my computer at the time was too weak for a full install. So every time I left certain areas…I had to put a new disc into the drive.  Yes, I am lazy.

Now that my computer has the cajones to handle the massive full install (which isn’t so massive anymore), because im still too lazy to change the discs, my journey into the forgotten realms is finally underway, and I thought I would share my experience so far with you. Read more… »

ACE Team’s creative use of story telling, game play and design all crammed into Valve’s Source engine is truly a product that pushes video games ever closer to an art form.  Zeno Clash is so bizarre and brutal that it is one of the most beautiful games made by any independent developer.  The game redesigns the first person shooter genre from the run and gun type to the more up close and personal melee combat.  It’s a nightmarish paradise mixed with a fantasy reality.  This game is so cunning that it breathes life into the make-believe.

The one thing about PC gaming that is difficult to keep up with, are the rigorous system requirements that exsist to play many titles that are already on a console. Street Fighter IV seems to buck this trend with fairly reasonable system requirements. I think we’re dealing with more of a beautiful art style, than performance intensive graphics. Check out the specs below!

The games industry is constantly shifting and evolving, lessons being learned in every corner. From developers to publishers to press to gamers, we’re all figuring ways to push this fledgling medium to greater heights. Sometimes it can be difficult to own up to your mistakes, to hold your hands up and admit that things could be or could have been done better.

DICE, the company responsible for the Battlefield series, however, seem to have no shame in talking about past errors, particularly when it comes to Battlefield: Bad Company. Probably their biggest release from the franchise was met with mixed feelings across the board. Creative director Lars Gustavsson has a few ideas why.
