In the newest inFamous game, users can create their own missions, and if they get popular enough, they could be featured in the single-player game. A key fact you would want to know is that the kit you use to build your mission, includes all the tools and accessories used for the actual game, plus some exclusive stuff only in the user-generated set. Jake Gaskill says, “There will be filters that will let you choose what types of user-generated missions you want to show up. Mission start locators will stream into the actual single-player game, so you’ll see them as you run around. Filters will keep it from being too crowded.” More »


A new trailer has come from Square Enix showcasing the gameplay of their upcoming 3rd Birthday. It still retains the basic style of Parasite Eve, kind of like a third-person shooter action-RPG.

Trinity: Souls of Zill O’ll has gotten a spectrum of bad reviews. Mainly, it’s because of style– this is definitely a dungeon-based game. You don’t have anything to do on the world map either then to select places on the map, but the dungeons of each area are amazing. Not one is the same in design and each of them have their own special weather, environmental conditions, and enemies. In addition, if you don’t like quests like monster hunting, escorting something, treasure-hunting and the like, then this game will definitely rub you in the wrong way. But I enjoyed Trinity a lot, regardless of the cheesy narrative, and repetitive gameplay. More »

Alright, Killzone 3 hitting it off with a bang. I’m playing it with the Sharpshooter peripheral, which is an assault rifle model for the PS Move and Navigation Controller. In fact, I mainly got Killzone 3 because of the Sharpshooter model. I was really interested in the setup and the incorporation of the PS Move as a gun. Trust me, usually those peripherals don’t work well at all. More »


Ever wanted to created, design, and code computer games? Yes? Well then, you should definitely apply for University of Souther California! GamePro Media and Princeton Review voted USC as the nation’s best game design school out of almost 150 other colleges.

Maybe after I learn how to code properly I’ll go! And it just so happens to be in California where many game companies are located. Such a coincidence. More »

Sorry for the lack of Trinity logs, my old PS3 died on me, so I bought a new one. Though it hasn’t helped the situation since this new one also froze on me… in the last dungeon. (Which in an hour’s worth of gameplay, doesn’t seem to have a save point anywhere. … Or maybe I was getting close to one. Oh well, that’ll be in the next log then.) More »
