It’s looking really good – proper old school turn-based action, but doesn’t seem to get to slowed down. Rather glad I backed this one.

Maybe this will mean a simultaneous console/PC release. Then again, maybe pigs will fly.

Given all the hints in Fallout 3 about The Commonwealth (i.e. of Massachusetts) and The Institute (i.e. of Technology), I’d be pretty surprised if FO4 isn’t set in the Boston area. Surprised with Three Dog coming […]

Wow, that’s pretty low. I think I’ll be giving this one a miss and wait for the standalone release of Day Z for my free-roaming zombie survival fix.

You are quite correct, GitS:SAC is absolutely superb. I didn’t play the PS2 game but I could most certainly go for some proper cyberpunk. I shall be watching this closely.

I’m a PC gamer, but since many games are multiplatform I feel qualified to weigh in. Deus Ex Human Revolution definitely deserves a mention – the first proper follow up to the Best Game Ever. The fantastic art style, interesting themes, and well executed gameplay really came together to make a great final product. Saints [...]

Hopefully the success of Dishonored will encourage other companies to take a risk on new AAA IP. It was a big risk but it seems to have paid off. I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with the idea of a franchise, provided it’s handled well. CoD’s yearly snoozefest isn’t the way to go about [...]

I don’t know whether there’s sexism in the gaming industry itself as I don’t have much contact with it, but there certainly appears to be plenty among gamers.

Last thing EA released that I cared about was Battlefield 3 and that had plenty of things that rubbed me the wrong way. The multiplayer was well executed and very enjoyable, which is what I wanted from it, but the single player was awful and the social tie ins and whatnot were poor. I’m looking [...]

Halo 4, graphics and gameplay are great. Had fun. Thanks for the chance :)
PS Vita will not be abandoned like PSP, say Sony
It is good of Mr. Shuehi Yoshidi that being such a famed person he has accepted…
