This week’s setup belongs to VampireChrist. His game room contains an awesome custom Rock Band drum set, and a huge collection of games. I particularly like the guitar setup with the real guitar and the two videogame guitars. Check out more of his setup on his C-Blog.
As always, plenty of Community Blogs were made this […]

In-Game advertising is slowly but surely becoming more and more used as a way of games developers making some extra money. Fine, no problem, the cost of developing games is increasing, and any way in which they can make some extra money to keep down costs is a good thing no?
The problem as I see […]

Ah yes, plenty of goodness in this week’s links from Think Services’ suite of B2B-ish game sites, including Gamasutra, Game Career Guide, Worlds In Motion, Indie Games, and more.
In particular, we have the controversy over N+ rubbing shoulders with a really fun Ian Bogost column on pranks in games, as well as some […]

Games of the Week for 03/23/08: Zombie Jesus edition

My colleague across the pond has been stricken with SARS, mad cow disease, or something of the sort, so I’m taking up the Games of the Week mantle in his stead. While the good Western Christians among you have likely spent the day feasting with family in honor of the resurrection of Jesus, I have […]

Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Confession time — I’ve only installed one user created mod designed to work with the PlayStation 3 version of Unreal Tournament III. Prior to its release, I was positive that the capability would yield some really interesting results on the console, and was pretty excited to check them out. Then life and work happened.
But these […]

Electronic Arts’ next-gen "sci-fival horror" title Dead Space not only will have a pause feature, but will also be getting the animated film treatment. The film will act as a prequel to the forthcoming game, and will pick up right where the Dead Space comic book series left off.
The film will be brought to life […]

When I rushed home from the store the other day with Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (PS3 version) in hand, I couldn’t wait to try out the multiplayer and see how much it improved upon the first. Much to my dismay, however, I was only able to get into two matches over a two-day stretch. At first, […]

COLUMN: ‘The Aberrant Gamer - Auto-Neurotic Asphyxiation’
Category: Column: The Aberrant Gamer | Leave a Comment
[The Aberrant Gamer is a weekly, sometimes NSFW column by Leigh Alexander, dedicated to the kinks and quirks we gamers tend to keep under our hats – those predilections and peccadilloes less commonly discussed in conventional media.]
We throw around lots of insults on message boards and comment threads, but there is perhaps none so common […]

[Editor’s note: Conrad Zimmerman lately has been trying to spread the board game love on the C-Blogs. This is his 12th On the Table column and this time he takes a look at a game that most of you may be at least be familiar with. — CTZ]
While I adore videogames, I’m equally fond […]
