Leave a Comment
Some of our European members might recognize Germany-based developer Master Creating and its action role-playing game Legend: Hand of God, which was warmly received when it released there last year. After receiving a positive reception in its home country — such as winning Best RPG of 2007 at the German Developer Awards — Legend will […]

Recent scans of the August issue of Nintendo Power magazine unearthed more than just the typical fare. Among the reviews, editorials, fan art, and previews, was an interesting ad for Disgaea DS.

Theresia DS may appeal to fans of Hotel Dusk, Shadowgate
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment

Bioware to defeat piracy with customer satisfaction
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
PC piracy has always been a hot button topic. Most recently, it was Crytek CEO Cevat Yurli who said his game Crysis had a 20-1 ratio of pirated versus purchased copies. For Yurli, the answer to the issue of piracy is to abandon PC exclusivity altogether. Bioware believes they have a different answer. That answer […]
