The new Legendary Map Pack is coming out next Tuesday for Halo 3 and Bungie has shown off some new screen shots of some battles taking place in all three maps. Don’t you just hate it when they show off a guy with the flaming head? Anyway, Avalanche looks to be easily my new favorite […]

[Stardock’s Brad Wardell is a friend of Gamasutra and associated sites, and he promises a postmortem of Sins Of A Solar Empire for the site rather soon, yay. In this Christian Nutt-conducted interview, he chats about the digital store reboot that has Gas Powered Games all atwitter (Demigod pictured!), for one.]

Game Debate to the Death!Best Halo 2 multiplayer level?
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
In the last debate we discussed which Halo: Combat Evolved multiplayer map was our favorite, and while the winner was no surprise, it was still fun to see the battle for second place.

GlaDOS as a bondaged slave: Now you’re thinking with boners
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
The human imagination is a real magnificent and powerful thing. Like for instance, when I look at a cloud, I sometimes see kittens and bunnies. This writer over on game-ism is the same way.

Podtoid 49 tonight, we talk about endings and stuff
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Doctor Who is finally back, it’s been two weeks since I made one of these posts, I’m drowsy on allergy medicine, and I can’t put up any picture directly related to our theme without spoiling something for someone. Why wouldn’t I post a photo of David Tennant?
RetroforceGO! is a day late, Podtoid is a day […]

One of the most intriguing documentaries about electronic games in recent years isn’t even about video games, believe it or not. It’s ‘Tilt: The Battle To Save Pinball’, the Greg Maletic-directed doc that’s out on DVD today, April 8th.
Rather than hamfistedly trying to explain it myself, how about let the documentary creators explain it? […]
