Don’t let the title fool you. As a semi-proud owner of a Nintendo Wii, I know that motion controlled games can be successful. Wii Sports is one of the funnest pick up and play videogames of this generation, and the innovation of motion detection in Metroid Prime 3 made first person shooters play so much better than the typical two joystick setup. We know the motion controlled system can really help the accessibility in games, and even improve some, but that isn’t the question. More »

Summons have always been a high point for fans of the series and I can’t help but feel a little cheated with only taking control over 6 summons. Here is a list of 5 summons we would have loved to see get an HD makeover. More »

Ubisoft has released a developer diary that shows off quite a bit of gameplay footage. Surprisingly enough the game based on a film, based on a game takes it self pretty seriously. Fans of the Sands of Time era Prince of Persia games will feel right at home with how the Prince manipulates the world around him. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands might just put the franchise back on track to the game that we all once loved. Don’t mistake this trip through Persia as another poorly executed film adaption.

If you haven’t seen the show The Big Bang Theory yet, you are missing out on one of the best nerdy comedy romps on TV.

They don’t want you to sit in front of their TV and play the game, they want you to play the game until you get tired of standing and then buy the game and go home where you can sit and play in peace.

While Slipknot holds a funny place in my heart, and I do love me some corn, video games practically take up the rest. Maybe Iowa is the place I should be? Could be true, but the question remains: …why Iowa!? More »
