It's official. Vince Zampella and Jason West, former Activision heads who jumped ship last month (March), have been picked up by EA. They'll be forming a new studio called Respawn Entertainment with Zampella as General Manager. So those are the facts. Now for the opinion. I can't help but think, since Zampella and West left Activision ...
Justin Bieber instead of Gears of War?
0774 days
Kotaku has an article about the Gears of War developer being bumped from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and being replaced with Justin Bieber. The article makes it rather clear that it was the decision of the Gears developers to delay their appearance, and not the producers deciding to replace them with Bieber, but I ...
I Just Don’t Know What to Think Anymore, EA

Dear EA, I've been over this before: in the past two decades or so, you've confused the crap out of me. I've loved you, I've hated you, I've nothinged you. Now, just as you're starting to move pretty solidly back into gamers' collective good graces, you get fast and furious with some pretty serious mixed messages. You've ...
MW2 Map Pack: It’s just like the REAL Stimulus Package!
6798 days
This goes along with my article from last week. In that article, I discussed Modern Warfare 2's apparent failure to keep the player base occupied and coming back for more as time goes on. Well, Infinity Ward was concerned that such a thing was either going to happen or happening already, because they will soon ...

Coming from a console player no less! While I think the term "noob" gets thrown around too much by retards who think it's actually something that will offend someone, this is an excellent video on how not to be one in Bad Company 2. Unfortunately it would appear that MW2 Syndrome has invaded the PC ...
C’mon, GR!

Ok, honestly I'm not really that angry about this one, just a bit surprised. Gamesradar ran an article about the top 14 video game couples. They range from Mario/Peach to several more obscure pairings. But what surprised me wasn't what was included in the list, but rather one glaring omission: Grim Fandango's Manny and Meche. ...
Gamesradar editors don’t know their history…
4829 days
Once again, Gamesradar has displayed a complete disregard for gaming history. I find this problem to be very, very odd indeed. On the one hand, their retrospectives and articles on the early days of gaming are usually terrific, and a great throwback for those of us who can remember playing games in the '90s (and ...
Microsoft Surface helps D&D nerds
0830 days
I saw this over on Tom's Hardware initially: While I have never actually played a table-top RPG, I think this is a great display of how Surface can take something frightening and strange and make it more accessible. I hope people keep innovating with the platform, because I think it has some great potential for the ...
Co-op Gaming Cool Again?
0830 days
I don't know about you but I've missed cooperative gaming. Back when I was a kid, every other game was coop and those were, by far, my favorite. Yes, I love/loved Zelda but there was something rad about having a sleep over with your best friend and staying up all night playing contra together, despite ...
