Review: Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad

1

  I thought we'd shake this up with this review.  See, I (Squid) pre-ordered Red Orchestra 2 the instant it was available for purchase on Steam.  Had to.  I've been a fan since the original Red Orchestra mod came out for Unreal Tournament 2004.  It won best mod two years in a row and I've been ...

Deus Ex: Human Revolution Review

0

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 ...

Brink Preview: PAX East 2011

1

    So, Mack and I got some time at PAX East with Bethesda's latest title, Brink, developed by Splash Damage.  If you're unfamiliar with the game, let me give you the spiel from their site:   Brink is an immersive first-person shooter that blends single-player, co-op, and multiplayer gameplay into one seamless experience, allowing you to develop your ...

Deus Ex: Human Revolution in action

    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 panel was ...

PAX East Battlefield 3 Preview

0

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, ...

Dead Island trailer feeds on brains, tugs at heartstrings

0

I don't know about you, but for me the recent Battlefield 3 teaser and subsequent gameplay trailer sort of redefined how excited a game trailer/teaser can get me.  The thing is, BF3 is a game I and many many others have been anxiously awaiting for what seems like an eternity, so that took a lot ...

Battlefield 3 site is live, teaser will make you feel things in your naughty bits [Updated]

5

Okay, so the latter part of my headline might be more anecdotal than factual, but, in my defense, it's been a very very long time since I've wanted to play a game as badly as I want to play Battlefield 3.  We've had hints and allusions to what's going to make it into the "true ...

Flight Control adds voice-chat: iOS gaming takes another step forward

0

Big news for all you iPhone/iPod Touch gamers out there. iOS developer Firemint has released a hefty update to their popular iOS title, Flight Control. Now, even if you're not a fan of the game or perhaps this is the first you've heard of the title (if so, how's the weather on Neptune?), it's still ...

Wii-K: This is a problem

Wii’s visual prowess has always been stunted but this is getting ridiculous…

CoD: Black Ops gives us dedicated servers… with conditions.

0

As I was perusing Kotaku I came upon an article regarding the dedicated server situation for COD: Black Ops.  Seeing that the article came from IGN originally, I jumped over there to take a look at the entire post.  Now, it's no secret that The Angry Three are no fans of MW2's complete lack of ...
