CNBC reporter Jane Wells wrote a piece yesterday titled “The Ultimate Proof Sony Is Winning”. Wow, that’s a pretty bold claim to declare someone is winning the console war this early on. So how does Jane know that Sony is winning? Has she been doing a ton of research? Has she been looking into the […]

Once again, back is the incredible … The thyme animal … The incredible Dyson G! Next-gen enemy number one … FPS said freeze! And I got numb.
Okay, so my poor attempt at quoting Public Enemy didn’t go so well. In fact, it wasn’t very good whatsoever. That kind of makes me sad, only for the […]

Category: | Leave a Comment
Yeehaw, time for GameSetLinks, and we’re still rounding up some miscellaneous E3 links (towards the bottom), but hey, nothing wrong with that if it’s neat.

The racy picture was […]

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones. This week’s theme isn’t too challenging, but solving the easy teasers first is probably a must. As […]

In a recent interview with Eurogamer, Lionhead executive Peter Molyneux admitted to being enthralled with the idea of creating a MMO. The interview was conducted in Lionhead’s offices, towards the end of Fable 2 development talk.

A fantasy world without an overly large, stereotypical demon villain would be far too nice, pretty, and sweet. According to Overlord: Raising Hell, fantasy realms need more evil. In fact, the want is so great that the game flips the typical demon antagonist into the main protagonist. The playful mix of satire, commentary, and terrible […]
