Right now I’m watching Penny Arcade’s Strip Search reality show in what certainly feels like a devout fashion. While it stands out on its theme of bringing together a group of strangers to compete in an artoff, it really is just as formulaic as any other reality TV show out there. In that regard I would say that Penny Arcade found success simply because it’s just a good show at tying together the Penny Arcade brand and what they represent. [...]
With the PS4, Ouya and Xbox whatever on the horizon, the excitement, energy and emotion is starting to froth back up among gamers. We have the next generation already here with the Wii U, so everybody around the office felt its time to get reminiscent. It istime to look back at the best of the generation. This was like pulling teeth to get everybody to choose that one and only defining piece, but finally we all settled on the games that [...]
While most of us are unsure of what to expect, there is something we can all come to somewhat of an agreement on. Slowly, but surely, we are headed towards the next generation of video game home consoles. Whether they bring about a much needed upgrade to the hardcore gamer demographic, or seek to change the very fabric of entertainment as we know it, Microsoft and Sony are providing a new console this year for a new generation; complete with [...]
You’re trapped in a virtual rat’s maze and there’s no getting out. Of course, it’s not really you, not your physical body anyway: we’ve all been reduced to cheesy, poorly animated avatars. No one knows why we’re running through this deadly obstacle course, nor why we’re competing against each other for the fastest times. Who are these other people? Is this some sort of test? What do you even win if you get first place? Perhaps you get to stop? [...]
Real talk: There is no job in the world harder than being a mother. Fatherhood certainly has its challenges from time to time, but there are some critical differences between the roles where it is strictly no contest. First of all, men have almost a year to prepare for a new child while women have to carry that little bundle of joy right from the start. Second, that connection from carrying a baby (as well as breastfeeding and such) creates [...]
“To every man upon this earth death cometh soon or late. And how can man die better than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods” – Thomas Babington Macaulay, Horatius A knight dies for a predestined duty. Dies again and again and again. Each time the knight rises from the muck to run into battle once more because at the end of the journey there is a promise, and he will see [...]
I think Tomb Raider 2 was the first game I ever played. It was either that or Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, but being the (slightly) less scary of the two, it was Tomb Raider that stuck around. We were a great team, Lara and me, and I’d spend hours sitting on the floor in front of the TV, the cogs and gears inside my infantile mind ticking away while solving the puzzles. Lara was a pretty great companion for a kid [...]
Man, I haven’t played Minecraft since the alpha. Things have changed a lot since then: survival mode is an actual game type. No longer am I just surviving to find something to do, but they made it an actual game mechanic. They’ve actually added a ton of features to the game since I last played. I decided to see for myself all they have added… though I totally wasn’t sober while doing so.
With the recent news of the hire of John Needham as Lionhead Studios’ new head, and the upcoming announcement of the next generation Xbox, this is the perfect opportunity to take a look at the history of the Fable series, one of the few remaining Xbox exclusives. While the games weren’t the revolutionary masterpieces that the bombastic Peter Molyneux kept promising his fans, they all had at least some new features that helped the series stand out.
Music is such a fascinating art form because it is ubiquitous yet elusive. It’s something that can resonate by just having it on in the background. Songs evoke specific feelings and specific moments in one’s life, and when well-placed can transform a scene in a movie or game into something truly special. Consider the comic strip above. Jimi Hendrix died over 40 years before Minecraft was created, but that badass lyric from Voodoo Child has an entirely new meaning as [...]
