Scrimshaw http://www.3angrygamers.com/?p=1792 Tim Schafer is a gaming legend.  He started out with LucasArts during their golden age, and was a writer for The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge.  He was project leader on Day of the Tentacle and designed Full Throttle and the incredible Grim Fandango before leaving LucasArts to found Double Fine and releasing [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/02/double-fines-newest-game-lets-you-get-directly-involved/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/01/the-elder-scrolls-skyrim-review http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/01/the-elder-scrolls-skyrim-review#comments Tue, 24 Jan 2012 21:47:51 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://www.3angrygamers.com/?p=1706 If you haven’t played either Morrowind or Oblivion allow me to discuss them briefly.  Both were massive worlds populated with characters that approximated real people as much as the technology of their times would allow.  They allowed an unprecedented level of role playing through the diversity of their races and worlds, and the latent racial [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/01/the-elder-scrolls-skyrim-review/feed 1 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/09/deus-ex-human-revolution-review http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/09/deus-ex-human-revolution-review#comments Mon, 12 Sep 2011 21:23:13 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://www.3angrygamers.com/?p=1607 Any developer that takes over an intellectual property is playing a dangerous game.  It can easily restrict innovation because everything is based on someone else’s ideas.  Or one can totally destroy a beloved franchise.  The original Deus Ex was fantastic.  It had a strong, if convoluted story, difficult combat, stealth, and great RPG elements in [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/09/deus-ex-human-revolution-review/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/mass-effect-2-the-arrival-review http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/mass-effect-2-the-arrival-review#comments Thu, 31 Mar 2011 16:00:51 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://www.3angrygamers.com/?p=1550 Mass Effect 2 is an excellent game.  While I personally feel that it is slightly eclipsed by its predecessor in the effectiveness of its storytelling mechanics, it is nonetheless a dramatic and epic experience. Unfortunately, following in the footsteps of the original, this particular slice of downloadable content is a bit disappointing.  Now, before I [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/mass-effect-2-the-arrival-review/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/deus-ex-human-revolution-in-action http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/deus-ex-human-revolution-in-action#comments Wed, 16 Mar 2011 16:00:38 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1375     Let me preface this by saying the lines at PAX are horrendous.  This is no fault of the organizers, of course.  In fact, it’s a testament to the popularity of the Convention (though I felt that, at least by description, the panels were a bit weaker than last year).  Thankfully, the Deus Ex [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/deus-ex-human-revolution-in-action/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-battlefield-3-preview http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-battlefield-3-preview#comments Tue, 15 Mar 2011 02:17:29 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1379 Okay, so there really wasn’t anything new at PAX East regarding BF3.  At least, nothing new beyond the last single player video and the leaked GDC footage.  There were however a few items left out of those (they had a very strict no recording policy, so don’t expect any leaked videos from us).  First off, [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-battlefield-3-preview/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-3-in-pictures http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-3-in-pictures#comments Mon, 14 Mar 2011 02:39:05 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1387 Unfortunately, it all has to end sometime.  With the third and final day of the Expo behind us, we finally get down to the task of writing our thoughts and posting our videos.  Expect to see coverage of everything from Firefall to Battlefield 3, Guild Wars 2 to LA Noire, and Portal 2 to New [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-3-in-pictures/feed 0 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-2-in-pictures http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-2-in-pictures#comments Sun, 13 Mar 2011 02:50:45 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1352     So ends Day 2.  It was a long day, but a rewarding one.  Even though we were a little late to the floor for the Media hour (because we were late getting up and also because the Press room was out of lockers which caused us some consternation), we still managed to see [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-2-in-pictures/feed 8 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-1-in-pictures http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-1-in-pictures#comments Sat, 12 Mar 2011 02:55:54 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1328 Here’s a quick photo rundown of the first day.  I was disappointed we didn’t see more cosplayers to be honest.  There were a few that we didn’t get pictures of, but we got most of the more interesting ones.  This will be updated as we add photos from the various devices we all had.]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/pax-east-2011-day-1-in-pictures/feed 2 http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/penny-arcade-expo-east-is-that-time-already http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/penny-arcade-expo-east-is-that-time-already#comments Tue, 01 Mar 2011 16:59:37 +0000 Antilles C. Scrimshaw http://3angrygamers.com/?p=1310 It would appear that last year’s experimental Penny Arcade Expo here on the East Coast was a success, because they’re doing it again this year and in a bigger venue.  What does that mean for you, dear reader?  Well, considering we’ve once again managed to secure press passes this year, it could mean a whole [...]]]> http://www.3angrygamers.com/antilles/03/penny-arcade-expo-east-is-that-time-already/feed 0
