So Bioware is teasering an upcoming announcement all round the internet. Kotaku predicts that we are going to see a Call of Duty style multi-player spin-off of the Mass Effect series.  That doesn’t seem unlikely, considering that Mass Effect had quite a few players from the console shooter crowd that normally wouldn’t touch and RPG [...]

So the Kinect is out and the Skynet jokes are abundant. People are worried about being watched in their living room while others are busy trying to find better uses for the hardware than the awful games you are supposed to play with it. Me, I don’t own an Xbox so people have to find [...]

I haven’t talked about APB before, even though I was in the beta. Well, technically. In case you didn’t know, APB or Action Points Bulletin, was a cops-vs-robbers action MMO that was live for a whopping 2.5 months this summer. The game was so awful that the creators even put a review embargo on it [...]

Last year I managed to milk Blizzcon for    , this year I’ll barely get one. Sure, the Demon Hunter class for Diablo III was announced, but everyone knew a ranger-type class was coming and she doesn’t really do anything that’ts exiting to talk about. She looks cool and she throws ‘nades but that’s about [...]

When I got Elemental: War of Magic at release a while ago, I was pretty disappointed in the game. Disappointed enough to , in fact. Well, the technical issues have apparently (I haven’t checked it yet) been resolved now, leaving only terribly gameplay speaking against the game. Well, Stardock just hired Fall from Heaven (an immensely popular [...]

I don’t think there’s ever been more whining about World of Warcraft in the blogosphere than in the last couple of months. The decline of WoW has been stated as fact and its demise predicted. Well, it seems Blizzard is still doing something right – they just announced a new peak in subscriber numbers at [...]

This news is a coupe of days old, but still something I find very interesting to discuss: Apparently Square Enix will limit the time people can meaningfully play their new MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV. Only during the first eight hours of play each week will you be rewarded full experience. After that the amount gained [...]

It seems that not a lot of interesting news could be found on the Gamescon in the past week – or at least that’s the feeling I’ve been getting so far. One interesting piece of information is Blizzards revelation of the Diablo III crafting system which seems closer to World of Warcraft than traditional Diablo [...]

I talked earlier this year about how GomTV acquired exclusive rights for Starcraft 2 broadcasting in South Korea. Well, it seems that this exclusive deal is working out for the players, as GomTV just announced a huge world-wide Starcraft II league with payoffs that are through the roof the other day. There will be monthly [...]

When Spore came out I was among the millions of players who was absolutely disappointed buy the game. The concept sounded great, the creature creator was fun, but then the actual game came along with, well, not so much game in it. Spore pretty much tanked, high piracy rates, low sales, even lower review scores. [...]
