    Starcraft 2 Great Game bad Players.

    I never really understood these rants. It's all part of the gameplay. Although unfortunately, I recommend avoiding 3v3 and 4v4s as people always want to do something that is considered "cheesy". 1v1 and 2v2s tend to be good. I still don't understand why people hate rushes. This is...

    Rumor: Activision Doesn't Think Female Leads Can Sell Games

    No point getting disgruntled, because none of this is confirmed. It's all a rumour. Considering Activision's bad reputation though, I wouldn't be surprised if everyone agreed that this was true. Not defending them, just looking at it from a different perspective.

    Doctor Horrible Voicing Spider-Man in Shattered Dimensions

    They already confirmed the 4th dimension a long time ago. It's Ultimate Spider-Man with the symbiote suit.

    What are you Playing now? and What you think of it?

    Currently I'm juggling between Team Fortress 2, which just received a huge arse free update, Red Dead Redemption single player, and Starcraft 2 beta, which also just re-opened up to the public very recently. Chances are, since the beta is limited, I'm basically going to be only playing the...

    Question of the Day, July 7, 2010

    I only really remember the Water Temple from Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. It's not that it was hard to figure out (although that does contribute), but mainly because it was frustratingly slow and required a ton of pausing to switch boots so you can sink/walk underwater or rise/swim, as...

    Poll: TF2

    Hate to be a downer, but the problem lies beyond just Microsoft wanting to charge for the free updates. Valve once posted on the TF2 blog [http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=2394] (April 2nd 2009) some news about the Xbox 360 update. Specifically, they were having trouble with memory...

    Poll: TF2

    I recently started playing TF2 again and somehow I went up to around 200. It's a great game and I love the free updates they had, which was really the only reason I got back into it after exams were over. Took me a long time to unlock some of the new stuff (I'm still missing 2 Soldier...

    New Fighters Enter the Ring in New Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 Trailer

    If you've ever played RE5, you would know Chris Redfield is more than a match for Hulk. He clearly did steroids (compared to his RE1 self), is capable of punching through boulders without injury, and is also able to do some crazy Falcon Punches and backhand slaps. Felicia was confirmed a...

    Brand-New StarCraft II Commercial Leaked Early

    In SC1, there was no cutscene for this, just voice acting during the end of a mission. This new flashback looks amazing. But yep, that is Kerrigan, and yes, that is a flashback to when that evil bastard Arcturus Mengsk decided to leave her behind, hoping to take out a key player without...

    Company of Heroes Online Coming to North America

    Pretty much. Basically it's CoH with avatar customization, hero units, and a couple of other features that won't work for the actual CoH game (such as persistent level ups, army items (which are basically buffs to certain units), etc.). You can earn these...or you can just buy them with real...

    Deadliest warrior: Alexander the Great vs. Attila the Hun WTF!?!?!?

    The show is entertaining but as usual, I have to agree that it would be so much better if they did more accurate tests. As everyone else mentioned, there's the whole Ninja thing (They never fight head on, and should have been left out entirely), bringing siege weapons to a 1 on 1 fight (In the...

    Question of the Day, May 27, 2010

    Can't there be an option for "Random"? That's what I've been playing as in the beta, and will likely continue to do so. It's more fun mastering all 3 of the races, so I don't have a particular favourite. I like them all. Blizzard still develops separately from Activision. I don't...

    Ubisoft's New Toronto Studio Takes on Splinter Cell

    Interesting. I had no idea it would be this big, let alone start producing triple A titles right off the bat. It's also interesting that for once a studio is pretty darn close by to where I live. This seems like a ripe opportunity for talented game designers around here. And hey, Raymond also...

    Question of the Day, May 14, 2010

    Depends on the game. It is a bit of a spoiler if it's a single player game, but for multiplayer games it's not much of a spoiler, especially when it is used to test out balancing rather than to give players a demo. I'm currently playing the Starcraft 2 beta and there's still a ton of content...

    Australian Government Slows R18+ Rating Process

    You don't actually understand why? The reason being is because adults want to be treated like adults. The lack of an R18+ rating means games are forced to be censored or dumbed down in order to be released in Australia. This means adults lose out on their share of a full experience of a game...
