The barren, post-apocalyptic wastelands should be a familiar to anybody who’s spent a significant amount of time playing Fallout 3. Borderlands, the upcoming progeny of RPG and FPS also has a similar, seemingly mad-max inspired theme. Why then, should any of us be paying attention to Rage, id software’s foray into the ever expanding post-apocalypse genre? For one thing, it …

Here’s some incredibly surprising news; Yet another developer is bemoaning the Playstation 3’s stilted architecture and having a tough time getting their game to run well on Sony’s 3rd place, current-gen wonderbox. A broken record that PS3 fans must be getting pretty tired of hearing. With almost every 3rd party developer having similar concerns a full three years in to …

You all may have read Gareth's rAge article two days ago and noticed that he mentioned that I ran off with the camera on a secret mission.... Now that I am back I have loaded up some of our photos of rAge for your viewing pleasure, complete with commentary.... There are roughly 20 images at 40kb's so those who are watching their bandwidth should wait till the get to work and abuse theirs instead.... If you didn't already know, it requires four Xbox consoles to do so. ^ The show was absolutely jam-packed on Saturday ^ A lot of stands had Monster PC's set up to remind people about how terribly crap their own home rigs actually are and that games will never look as good when they are playing at home.... ^ A competition that brings a new meaning to "The Orange Box" ^ Visitors have a rock out session with Guitar Hero: World Tour.... ^ Brothers in Arms and Far Cry 2 at the Megarom stand. That dude in the white shirt looks like he is concentrating pretty hard. ^ The new Prince of Persia is looking really sweet but I have to pixelate the image or Ubisoft and Megarom might send some really scary people to my front door to remove my teeth.... We will have an interview with the up on the site in the very near future. A fight over company shares quickly led to Danny pulling a massive "Hadoken" on Mark.... A Guitar Hero competition finals match held at the Game Exchange stand.... [LAWN] clan members were not allowed inside for the fear that they may start breaking things. Some members of [LAWN] and The Evil Alpacas take over the local Spur. You can't see it in the photos but there were about 15 of us in there.

So I had a good go with Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts at Rage but unfortunately this was by far the oldest code on the floor and wont be a true reflection on the final product, I hope. The first thing I felt when I played Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, was confusion, maybe because I expected Banjo to retain all of …

Two things were set in stone this weekend at rage regarding Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock, firstly Megarom, the Lair and Gamerlobby can pull of some really great competitions and secondly DarthPenguin sure as hell can play Guitar Hero, although he’s rather lucky he’s playing on expert cause if he played on medium he would have to face me. …

Lucky for us we got to sit down at RAGE and get in some good time with the most anticipated title for the Xbox 360 this holiday. After a solid hour or so of multiplayer, it was obvious Epic Games were not just resting on their success with Gears 1. Last Updated: October 6, 2008

If you don’t know what Rage is I’d suggest you climb out from under that rock cause any self respecting South African gamer would be able to tell you it’s the biggest computer, gaming and technology expo we have in South Africa. Last Updated: October 6, 2008

We received a press release from Megarom with a list of all of the games they are going to be showing off at rAge this year and the list is looking mighty fine indeed. Megarom will be showing off games from publishers such as Activision, Ubisoft and Take 2. There are a lot of title in this list that I am looking forward to so I will be doing everything in my power to steal all of them from the Megarom stand at rAge. I hope their security is really bad, especially when I get there and ask the security guard to go and buy himself a R200 cup of coffee. Two of the Far Cry 2 developers and one EndWar developer will also be at the stand, so that will be a nice treat and is something that we South Africans don't usually get to experience. I wonder if they will help me carry the GH: World Tour instruments to my car? I mean, they are from Ubisoft not Activision, so I am sure they wouldn't mind. I have put up a full list of the games that will be on display, after the jump. Activision: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Call of Duty: World at War Guitar Hero: World Tour Ubisoft: Far Cry 2 Tom Clancy's EndWar Shaun White's Snowboarding Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway Prince of Persia Take 2: Midnight Club: Los Angeles Bioshock One last note. Remember that Megarom will be hosting a Guitar Hero III competition as well and the prizes are ridiculously cool to say the least. Get those fingers practicing.
