If you played the first Red Steel Game on the Wii you probably would have been  – like I was – bitterly disappointed. It was meant to be the first game that got motion-controlled swordplay right. It failed, miserably. A lot of that had to do with the Wii itself – The Wiimote wasn’t anywhere near as accurate as Nintendo …

Welcome to the “don’t miss this one” episode of The Lazygamer Podcast as we bring you an earlier than usual special episode from rAge 2009 that you won’t want to miss out on. We have a very special treat for our listeners this week. We recorded our podcast live from rAge 2009 and managed to get David Holse from 2K …

One of the greatest things to see at rAge 2009 was undoubtedly the live demo of Splinter Cell: Conviction that was being done on the huge screen in the dome. With Conviction still only being a 2010 title, we were very fortunate that Megarom somehow managed to organise some early code of the game and it was quite an eye …

If you have images enabled the entire story has now been revealed to you however just to confirm. Splinter Cell: Conviction has been given a release date of the 23rd of February 2010 and we are not expecting this date to be moved again.

From all the Internet chatter it sounded like Splinter Cell Conviction was a disaster and they were apparently going back to the drawing board to start again. Normally this would result in a rushed game to try and …

There isn’t much to say about this really, this video popped up on the official Ubisoft Twitter yesterday without much of an explanation behind it, it is only 160 characters after all. Anyway it’s another one of those cool hand drawn (is it really when they use Photoshop?) video’s that we see around, this one is the lead up to …

The original Assassin’s Creed was one of my favourite games and I am possibly more excited about Assassin’s Creed 2 than I am for Modern Warfare 2… but then again they are so different it’s hard to choose. Anyway late last night Ubisoft officially released the first gameplay trailer for Assassin’s Creed 2 and it is looking truly awesome, I …

One of the finest games released in 2003, Beyond Good and Evil was an underappreciated gem. Praised by critics for its cinematic atmosphere and seamless combination of genres it was largely ignored by the game-purchasing public. Being one of my very favourite games of all time, I was naturally quite excited when a trailer for a sequel made an appearance …
