Ubidays has been up and running and within all the chaos that is Prince of Persia, Beyond Good and Evil and the awesome Raving Rabbids there is one huge title that is just no where to be seen. Sam Fischer has gone AWOL, there is no sign of Splinter Cell: Conviction anywhere… There are however rumours that the entire project …
This is the first time I have read anything about LBP where some issues were mentioned and if the only issues that they currently have are framerate and temporary stalls then I think it is safe to say we are going to see this game this year. Everything else written about the game sounds fantastic and what really impressed me …
So GamePro has released their printed review of MGS4 with the pay off line " MGS4 it is, without a doubt, one of the greatest games of all time " Now that is quite a strong choice of words so hopefully the game backs it up, they go on to say that the story easily surpasses both BioShock and GTAIV which are easily our generations flag bearers... I am not a huge MGS fan but the excitement around this game is obvious and by the sound of it the fans are not going to be disappointed...
It’s rubbish day today.. which means Zero Punctuation day… This week Yahtzee has decided to dip his toe into the world of JRPG’s and, like me, he isn’t a fan of them. I don’t really think it would be fair to judge this game on this review, but it’s Yahtzee so we have to listen… It’s good this week but …
The first screenshots of Bioshock on the PS3 have emerged. Now, I’m not going to lie, the screens pretty much look no different to any others I have ever seen on the 360. Granted, with the extra time that has been spent on the version for PS3 now, I am sure that the developers are going to be able to …
Stephen Totilo posted a short piece today about communications between game companies and game reviewers on his MTV blog today. Now what this is, is an example of the kind of crap that goes on in the industry every single day. What happened is that Totilo was interview Alex Navarro, formerly of Gamespot. When the topic was being spoken of, Alex produced a piece of paper, which was a note from an unnamed PR person who was involved in a particular Wii launch game. When Navarro asked when he could release the game review, he was told the following: "If the review is 9.0 or higher you can post immediately. Lower than 9.0, could you please hold until launch day, November 19th? Thanks." Scenarios like this basically destroy the entire concept of game reviews. What is the use of a review if it's sole purpose is to let most people know that have already bought a game, that it is a pile of guano. We can only hope that something will be done in future to protect reviewers from having to deal with issues like this.
A local blogger, who is known by some as The Puppy Stuffer, sniffed out the story a few days ago that Wii prices were going to be going up in South Africa. Today, people on the tidemedia forums are confirming that they have indeed seen that Nintendo Wii’s are now selling in stores for as much as R3,699.00! The price …
