As Hamza just noted, Haze hits this week and the developers have been busy answering questions on the Ubi form. To our surprise the May 16 update reveals two ugly technical facts about the game: a rather large required install and no true 720p.
Time to delete your porn, kids! When developers were asked if we’d […]

Also in here - discussion on the Sony-commissioned PS3 demo, as well as ‘the 8 online design commandments’ from HDRLying and Stephen Colbert battling Asian idols on Dance Dance Revolution.

Haze looks to be the biggest title out of the bunch this week. I played a good portion of the game back at PAX last year and really liked what I experienced. I like the whole Nectar element of the game and that you switch sides half way in the game. After all the hype […]

Not only are they up against a lower cost of entry and their booming game libraries, they’re up against products that are excellent in conveying what kind of experience gamers are buying into.

[Editor’s Note: Don’t listen to the above video with the volume turned up at work. Get out your headphones.]
