By Nick De Bruyne

3

This weekend I noticed that there was a demo for Costume Quest on XBLA, and I honestly didn’t know much about it. When I mentioned the game to a gamer buddy of mine, he hadn’t heard much about it either. It’s a game from Tim Schafer’s company Double Fine who if you don’t know, employs some of the minds behind …

It’s an indie title; you’ve surely heard of it. Reviewers are already loving it for its old-school platforming awesomeness and take-no-shit-tough-as-nails attitude. It also comes out today on Xbox Live Arcade, but it’s releasing on WiiWare, PC and MAC at a later stage. Because it’s an indie title, the developers (just two guys) don’t have to answer to stuffy, corporate bigwigs or …

Because, for some weird reason, there are lots of news pieces floating about today that are all inextricably connected with the digital distribution of games. We’re talking about full games for digital distribution, and not downloadable content, which we’ve already seen isn’t as big as one would think. So it’s safe to say I’ve felt a great disturbance in the …

Remember that curious Ubisoft published, Housemarque (Super S0tardust HD) developed game we told you about? The one that blended platforming with Ikaruga inspired shifts between light and dark? They’ve finally graced us with a trailer, showing the game’s intriguing bullet-hell gameplay. Sure, the trailer has some pretty dodgy voice-over, but the game looks effing incredible. It really does look like …

When Good PR Goes Bad – The Hydrophobia Fallout

By Karl

Dark Energy Digital, the company who developed Hydrophobia, recently published the XBLA title after years of hard work. When anyone publishes a labour of love, only to see it take some flak from the press, they are surely allowed to get a little miffed. However, when “being miffed” transforms into “downright hateful”, it becomes somewhat problematic. Dark Energy Digital, specifically …

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Yeah, I’m that damned excited! One of the most critically acclaimed, but publicly overlooked and underappreciated games from last gen, Ubisoft’s incredible Beyond Good and Evil will be getting re-released next year. Even better is it’s not some quick, nasty cash in. The game’s going HD, with level textures, character models and even its score being updated to better …
