Wii Xbox 360 PS2 PS3 PSP Talk

[This Brandon Sheffield-conducted interview with Capcom’s Kragi Kujawa discusses Capcom’s remake strategy on digital download titles like Commando and 1942, as well as meandering rather wonderfully into classic shmup geekiness - which we heartily approve of.]
Being the lead designer on Midway Chicago’s recent Blitz: The League gave Kraig Kujawa some perspective on rebooting a […]

As promised, those of us who own Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on the PS3 can now enjoy four new multiplayer maps! I bet you 360 owners are all going, “Been there, done that,” but you’ve already been playing on Killhouse, Broadcast, Chinatown, and Creek for the past three weeks — so keep quiet […]

Nintendo are having a good year. That’s a slight understatement but it’s the main thrust of the latest press release to come from the company’s headquarters, as it reports a massive surge in profits for the last twelve months.
Net profit rose 47.7% to a record high over the last fiscal year, after the phenomenal success […]

I’m not sure how High Voltage was able to read my mind, but Animales de la Muerte ("Animals of the Dead") is exactly the kind of game I’ve been waiting for. Picture the scene: animals in a Mexican zoo begin to mysteriously die off, and then begin to rise from the dead as flesh-eating zombies. […]

If a random person walked up to on the street and asked you what your favorite type of gameplay was, what would you say? Jumping from platform to platform? Shooting down enemies with a giant rocket launcher? Managing a virtual orc village? If I was asked this question I would definitely answer “solving puzzles.” I […]

A "letter" from Take-Two is currently circulating around the Internet, in which the company encourages stores to break the street date, presumably in order to combat the pirated versions that have predictably leaked onto the Internet. Personally, I think it’s about as believable a concept as Hideo Kojima one day waking up and saying, "today, […]

The London MCM Expo is a mixed bag. This annual celebration of all things geeky may not be especially big, glamorous or full of neat things, but it’s all we have in the UK and there are at least lots of toys. As such, I found it quite refreshing (if scary) to stand among the […]

No reason for this other than I like chicks.
Over on Gametap there’s a great article that delves into how achievements work and how they could be fixed. At first I thought the idea was silly, why would Xbox 360 achievements need to be fixed at all, they didn’t seem broken in the first place? However, […]

Day after day, hundreds of thousands of people across the globe play Blizzard’s ridiculously popular game. It’s kind of awe-inspiring to think about, the sheer number of humans all inhabiting the same virtual space.
Most are content to enjoy the experience of leveling up a character, raiding with their friends, or engaging in Player vs. Player […]

Many years ago, in a land far away, I used to have an office desk job. I didn’t have a cubicle — I was lucky enough to share a large office with one other person – but the life can become lonely and, during downtime, quite boring. It was at times like these that Flash-based […]
