    Will Half-Life 3 Outlive Public Interest Because of Development Time?

    Call me cynical but as much as I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt I think they have just gotten lazy and complacent. Maybe that's because of how lazy and uncaring their handling of Steam has become, letting anyone throw up whatever trash they please regardless of quality so long as...

    Game Theory: Batman + Superman + COW = ???

    As Linkara would say; It's magic, we don't have to explain ANYTHING!

    Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Dev 2K Australia Closes Its Doors

    Always sad to see a studio close but there is always hope that the people that worked there can still find a place somewhere else or even make their own. While I did enjoy Pre-sequel for the most part I do feel that they relied too heavily on mob spamming and padding length, especially with...

    5 Things To Do If You Use Cutscenes in Your Video Game

    Number 5 is a cardinal sin that too many games are guilty of. It's 2015, something simple like the ability to skip cutscenes should just go without saying...like having sound and actions happening when you press buttons. Come on game devs, it's not some herculean task or outrageous demand. Oh...

    Destiny's House of Wolves Expansion Won't Have a New Raid

    The problem is Destiny isn't really an MMO, no more so than say Borderlands could be called one. It's hardly noticeable most the time and even then its very shallow and empty. Not to mention you can easily complete all the missions, even side ones, in one sitting which makes the lack of...

    Destiny Expansion Unlocks The Reef This May

    Even though I technically already bought it (got suckered into getting the season pass, so not really free access) I'm not even going to bother renting Destiny back to check this out. It's just going to more of the same boring, repetitive missions and as narratively malnourished as before. No...

    YouTuber Angry Joe Says He's Done Reviewing Nintendo Games

    Guess the difference is I don't see it backing down, just taking the best possible path. To me being a "good little lapdog" would be joining their program and being told what he can and can't produce. Even if he didn't sign up and just surrendered part of the revenue I could see that as selling...

    YouTuber Angry Joe Says He's Done Reviewing Nintendo Games

    haha wow I wasn't expecting a rambling wall of text this morning. Anyway I think I get the gist of it. Sure he could do all that but as you admitted it would be very extreme to say the least. The question is doing all that shit really worth the trouble? Would going through all those hoops and...

    YouTuber Angry Joe Says He's Done Reviewing Nintendo Games

    Uhh and just how else exactly is he supposed to "fight" back? It's not like he can take legal action since, while a shitty thing to do, Nintendo does have the legal right deny using their content. All Joe can do is either take a hit and surrender part of the video revenue (and/or effectively...

    YouTuber Angry Joe Says He's Done Reviewing Nintendo Games

    Nintendo may not NEED them but they really don't gain anything by pushing them away either. If people like Joe really are that insignificant to Nintendo then what do they care if they make money making videos featuring their games? Either they don't need those youtubers so this is wielding a...

    These Games Were Ruined By Trying to Be Movies

    What, no Order 1886? That game (wow I literally almost wrote movie there) is like a textbook example of wanting to be a movie more than a game. It is so loath to let the player do anything at all, let alone do anything remotely free-form or outside of a linear corridor.

    YouTuber Angry Joe Says He's Done Reviewing Nintendo Games

    Just another case of a company shooting themselves in the foot. They have the right to deny using their content for videos unless they take a cut but in doing so are alienating the very same people who promote those games. Honestly I fully side with online personalities like Joe in boycotting...

    OnLive Streaming Service Shuts Down, Sells What's Left to Sony

    This is my shocked face... Honestly I'm not at all surprised. Hell I'd forgotten all about them till now.

    Zero Punctuation: Battlefield: Hardline - Cops & Robbers

    What I found amusing is not just that heavily armed guards would surrender rather than simply opening fire but that they would kindly not yell out for help to their pals a mere ten feet away. At any point they could call out and bring the whole room down on you, but nope they are too polite to...

    So Who Is DRM For Anyway?

    Pretty sure the devs have no say on the issue, it's one of likely many items mandated by the publisher in order to get the funding.
