Who loves shoot-’em-ups? We do! In fact, we love them so much that this review of Hudson Soft’s latest XBLA offering Omega Five is largely irrelevant; sure, we’d love for you to read, argue over the score, maybe even offer a counterpoint in the comments. Yes, we would appreciate that. But what we’d love even […]

As is well-established, the best video game TV show in the world (sorry, revamped X-Play, Videogaiden) is Japanese ‘beat classic games’ show Game Center CX, as previously covered on GSW and painstakingly documented by our buddy Ray Barnholt at Crunk Games.
Now, Ray has updated Crunk Games (only the .org version, not the .com version […]

The few PC exclusive gamers I know seem to constantly have their panties in the proverbial wad over the focus by developers on developing for consoles. Add the ceaseless struggle to have the most current (expensive) hardware into the mix and you are guaranteed a rant to last a lifetime. However, what these nattering nabobs […]

It has not been a good day for me and news, Dtoid. It seems like every tip I got was old disguised as new, not interesting enough, or the news equivalent of a raccoon’s bunghole. They say when you can’t get it right, do something else. Since I aim is to please, I am going […]

Silent Hill Origins was a surprise for me. After seeing it at multiple conferences, I wasn’t excited despite the huge Silent Hill fan that I am. My biggest concern was that the formula of the series would be used but the writing that has made the games so memorable would be absent. I came into […]

At some point or another you’ve likely sat through one of Uwe Boll’s movies. In this day and age it’s almost a rite of passage for an eager, doe-eyed youngster to have his hopes of an excellent movie of his favorite game dashed. That moment just as the light of optimism and hope fades from […]

Gamecock’s EIEIO is moving: Also, it sometimes releases games
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 |

I always thought that Gamecock’s only point was to try too hard to be irreverent, wear rooster costumes and act really stupid at award shows. Who know the company actually released videogames as well? The company is about to finally prove its actual value outside of a sideshow attraction with this year’s release schedule. So […]
