I find it strange that we get no information about Duke Nukem Forever until 3D Realms shuts its doors.  We’ve seen more in the past week than in all its development time put together. Well there has been a post up on ZBrushCentral from a previous employee of 3D Realms, he’s showing off some sexy character models from the game. Hit the jump to check them out!

Be warned, there’s nudity involved (NSFW). Read more… »

We’re back on our regularly scheduled programming, and as such the Retrocast is back for another week. For all intensive purposes we have temporarily ripped apart the usual format we usually follow to make this all about Final Fantasy. James, Colin, Tim and Chris are again jostling for audio space as we discuss one of the most popular, contentious, discussed and generally controversial series of games in console history.

Be warned, this episode runs a little long…

I’m so excited it’s not even funny. I cannot wait to experience Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. I beat the first one (including the airplane level) on veteran, and have logged countless multiplayer hours. The sequel to one of the biggest hits this console generation will at least be as good as, if not surpass the first. I can’t wait to see what is up Infinity Ward’s sleeves this tine. This teaser will have to hold me over!

It seems 2009 has already kicked off to a magnificent start on the gaming front, with plenty of great titles still to be shown. However there has been an abundance of a single genre this year, and its one of my favourites; Fighting games. Everyone loves a good fighter, whether you play competitively or casually you can have some serious fun pumping out Ultra Combos in Street Fighter, or pile-driving in Tekken. But is 2009 the year of the fighter? In my opinion it could well be, hit the jump to see why. Read more… »

Many of you, being gamers, have probably heard of the Angry Video Game Nerd, the Nostalgia Critic, and The Spoony Experiment. All of these guys, in their own right, are extremely popular, and for good reason – their video reviews and vBlogs are fantastic. Not only do they manage to create enormous amount of content to quench the neverending thirst of their rabit viewers, they keep it on the quality side too.

Ever wondered if they all ended up in the same room?

There has always been an uneasy and invisible tension between the gaming media and the creative industry itself that feeds us. As is the situation with movies, books and music, both the creators and the critics are in a tenable position where both require the other to survive. Without the developers, sites like ours would not exist, and without us, developers couldn’t promote their games, putting them in a state of strange limbo where indie devs are competing on a level playing field. The humanity!

Thus, its no surprise that like in any other industry, that sometimes things flair up and controversies ensue. What’s interesting though, that in this new media landscape, none of this can be hidden in the backhalls of offices anymore. PR agencies can try all they like, but its usually the passionate players on both ends that turn to the general public to decide who is right, or wrong, in the matter at hand. This is what happened this week in the very public fight between Eurogamer and the developers of new MMO Darkfall.
