With everyone and their brother talking about Rock Band and the waves it’s making in the gaming industry, I often hear the phrase "Yeah, they’re just ripping off Guitar Hero." That always makes me cringe a little bit. I find it sad that very few people in this country have heard of GuitarFreaks […]

As is often happening nowadays, I’m piling up GameSetLinks so efficiently that I need to spit them out in a couple of discrete lumps. This set deals with high-brow interviews, CIA arcade game abductions, and all kinds of other craziness:

Game Debate to the Death!Pyramid Head VS Big Daddy
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Last week’s developer debate was one of the largest discussions we’ve ever had. The pros and cons of Valve versus id Software were bounced back and forth for a full week and both sides received large amounts of support.

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Earlier today when I posted my vitriolic reaction to the winner of the Xbox Live Originals contest, I received an almost unanimous flood of e-mails filled with swears and death threats merely for propagating that walking abortion of a video.

So when we were approached (read: threatened) by Massive Entertainment, and asked if we wanted to play a friendly (read: serious business) game of their upcoming PC real-time strategy title, World In Conflict, you know we couldn’t resist.
Tomorrow morning, […]

It’s sorta offensive.
There is a big announcement at the very end of the thing.

Midway ‘07 Holiday Event: Unreal Tournament III (PS3)
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Let me be frank here — I’m not great at multiplayer first-person shooters. Be it on the PC using a keyboard and mouse, or a console with dual analog sticks, I’m strictly middle of the road when it comes to skills. But that’s never stopped me from trying.
So when I had the opportunity to sit […]
