Wii Xbox 360 PS2 PS3 PSP Talk

Once upon a time, we did a little thing on Sundays here, whereby I talked about some of the games I’ve been playing this week and what I thought of them - and then asked you folks to do the same.
I guess that fell by the wayside, a little, but I think it’s good […]

When I spoke to Jack Thompson, he was pretty confident that his "side" of the violent games debate had already won. He spoke with the belief that common consensus was on his side and that one day, we’d all be saying "I should have listened to Jack." While the anti-game lobby thinks it will prevail […]

[’Quiz Me Quik’ is a new weekly GameSetWatch column by journalist Alistair Wallis, in which he picks offbeat subjects in the game business and interviews them about their business, their perspective, and their unique view of life.

In any case, this line-up has some pretty neat stuff, with Juan Gril’s ‘State Of […]

You’ve no doubt heard the (possibly) awesome news that some great retro favorites are about to be exhumed and made over for a new generation. We scream, you scream, we all scream for Splatterhouse, right? What’s with this all of a sudden? It seems every few weeks it’s announced that another classic is getting new […]

[’World of Warcraft Exposed’ is a weekly column by Michael Zenke about the culture and experience of the globe’s biggest online game phenomenon, the ten million subscriber-strong World of Warcraft. This week’s column is a straight-up how-to on getting to higher levels as fast as possible.]
World of Warcraft’s success stems from a number of different […]
