Shut up, it can be done! I was kindly invited to Birmingham’s Omega Sector this past Friday to indulge in an afternoon of GRiD, the latest racing game from Codemasters. The only catch is, it was review code and we were under embargo until Monday morning. These were the problems I was faced with –

Hello dear readers. As you can tell, I am not Jim Sterling. We, um, don’t know where Jim is at the moment. We haven’t heard from him all day, as he never showed up to the offices and no one seems to know where he’s at. He hasn’t answered his cell phone and his family […]

So, as mentioned, I took a brief sojourn to Los Angeles earlier this week, and one of the things that I managed to do whilst there was make it out to Rowland Heights’ Arcade Infinity. It’s a small video game arcade that’s way out to the East of the city in the sprawling suburbs, but […]

Rare videogame collectors, get your wallets out. The sassy RawMeatCowboy over at GoNintendo came across this auction on eBay for a rare Star Fox jacket. The jacket was only given out to people that got specific high scores during the Star Fox Competition Nintendo hosted back in ‘93.
This jacket was only worn a couple of […]

This week’s game room belongs to Mr. Wilson. He has a nice TV with a very sh*tty computer right next to it (I had that computer too, hated it), an awesome controller stand, and lots of DVDs. He also has another game room with an even better TV. Also, his dogs are adorable. Check out […]

Well, it’s summertime once again — great for barbecuing and replacing air conditioning units, but never very good for US game mags, especially now that the advertising market has bottomed out across the board for dead-tree publications.
Still, that doesn’t mean the newsstand can be completely avoided until October. There’s always England to the rescue.
Two new […]

RetroforceGO! recording episode 50 tonight: Our cup runneth over
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
This weekend marks two very important occasions: the official start of Summer, and the start of a second year of RetroforceGO! It’s astounding that we’ve lasted this long, but give or take the few weeks we didn’t record, this is an anniversary of sorts for us.
I want to take this week’s post as an opportunity […]

Everything I’ve ever seen of the PS3 safari sim Afrika looks incredible. Granted, I still have no idea what gameplay will be like in this title, but it looks great enough that I find myself drawn to it. I’m hoping it will be a high-definition adaptation of the Pokemon Snap formula. Stop laughing.
While we still […]

There really is nothing quite like a good old fashioned action game. From God of War to Bujingai, they are the bread and butter of a lifelong gamer’s diet. A third person mixture of combat and exploration, it is a genre absolutely packed full of amazing titles and generic rubbish that keeps us coming back […]
