If you own a DS and haven’t picked up Dragon Quest IX then allow me to bring forth the feeling of utter, desolate, loneliness to your otherwise battered and withered body.  This morning  Gamasutra brought us their latest sales numbers compiled from amazon.com starting July 22nd, and it shows Dragon Quest IX in the lead for the [...]

Drive me off a bridge, I think I’m dreaming

Do you like Final Fantasy, but hate the effeminate boys and giant chickens? Well Tactics Ogre is like Final Fantasy Tactics without the chocobos. Because in the world of Tactics Ogre, chocobos are raped then eaten alive as their farms burn down around them. Not much whimsy around these parts. Well, except a slutty witch. [...]

So the Zelda timeline is difficult to follow. We all know this. Even when you completely discount the CD-i installments, as everyone should, things don’t really seem to move along in a linear fashion.  According to Eiji Aonuma, who recently spoke to Official Nintendo Magazine, there is a timeline and it’s located in a secret [...]

Pachter: “Kinect too expensive…Wii is better value.”

Gaming analyst guru, and mighty wizard, Michael Pachter was quick to come out today and bellow his feelings about the recently announced $150 price point for Kinect. “We disagree…and think that standalone Kinect, at $149, is not as good a value as a standalone Wii at $199, which comes with two games (instead of one) and a [...]

Spicy Horse, American McGee’s current development studio, announced the sequel to American McGee’s Alice well over a year ago. Besides an interesting little concept piece depicting a steam powered snail we were left with pretty much nothing else regarding the title. Today EA and Spicy Horse have decided to prove that Alice is still very [...]

I really am getting sick of posting about Bond…. really.  It makes me look like crazy obsessed fan boy but it seems that someone out there (i’m looking at you Yamaha Casey…)  is bent on ensuring that I do get hyped about the upcoming original bond game, Blood Stone,  from Activision/Bizarre Creations.  With that said, [...]

The following can only be described as completely brilliant.  Imagine the God of War franchise done as one of those ironic, uncomfortable, clearly cliche’ indie flicks. You know, the ones where there people where bad clothes (because doesn’t everyone wear track suits and pants that are too short?) and the music is of a particularly whiny-yet-catchy class that you [...]
