  • Game Overview/Food For Thought: Odds and Ends

    I tell ya, it’s been a good long while since I’ve had to write a post that’s not really about baseball and it’s got me rather at a loss of what to do. Instead of focusing on one topic today, instead let’s look at a variety of things going on that I care about: Peter […]

  • Game Overview: To Boston!?!

    Breaking news: Following the departure of Jeff Green from the GFW magazine, it seems that my actual favorite member of GFW, Shawn Elliot, is also splitting to head to 2k Boston, the game studio responsible for Bioshock.

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. Just a quick little trailer from E3 for a multiplatform game called I Am Alive.

    There’s one huge fact about the Xbox 360 avatar system that makes me want to tell Microsoft to shove it: having to pay for stuff to outfit your avatar.

    It’s one of the most anticipated trailers of the year, the Japanese trailer of FF XIII.

    Many a developer has come out saying that console exclusives just don’t make any sense in this new, expensive game development environment.
