The Pokemon series is another one of those incredibly popular series that I have just never gotten around to playing. The entire gameplay mechanic has just never sounded that exciting to be honest but I do know I should try it at some point. But someone out there, who is remaining anonymous, has sat down and redrawn all 493 Pokemon …
In an unfortunate case of terribly poor timing, Nintendo has revealed it’s had a rather significant dip in earnings over the past year. The Japanese console manufacturer and gaming giant has seen net profits dip 74% to just 49.6 billion yen ($599 million) for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.

Today’s news is all about the PSP2, or NGP as Sony’s calling it for the time being. Like Miklós, I was hoping the PSP2 wouldn’t be compelling enough for me to want one.

We’ve seen the incredible motion capture and facial animation systems they’ve got at work, and thanks to the most recent trailer we’ve got a small taste of its narrative. It’s a game that’s been through development hell, but it looks like it’ll soon escape that torment …
Killzone 3 releases in about a month and it looks like the wait is going to feel longer than ever. A new video has been released on the internet showing off a new Jungle-style level, although I wouldn’t chuck it into the bog-standard jungle location box just yet as it looks more like something out of a sci-fi err… shooter… …
I’ve often thought to myself: “Damn, I’d really just love to kick back and do some online virtual fishing with a load of other people from all over the world. It’d be even better if I could do virtual fishing in an online world that perpetuates gender stereotyping in videogamesâ€. Luckily, a friend alerted me to Hanbitsoft’s: Grand Mer. The …
