While Sky Crawlers is a gorgeous looking Wii game, it was the control setup that really caught my attention. Finally, a developer that was really thinking about how they could use the Wiimote and Nunchuk in a smart way…a way to enhance an experience. There’s no doubt that Sky Crawlers is going to [...]

Remember when video games were nothing more than side-scrollers and top-down RPGs? That was a long time ago…now we live in a time when the industry has more genres than it knows what to do with. One genre that has really come into its own is the open world, or sandbox game. [...]

“Genres are almost a vestige of the past. In a way, a lot of the best shooters are RPGs as well, because they allow you to have progression, exploration, combat or conflict, and a story.” - BioWare’s Ray Muzyka I definitely think that the industry stands to benefit from mixing the various game genres out [...]

Konami has Rhyme Player, Namco Bandai has Namco Quester. We have no idea what in the world either game is, but they are both game-related. We’ll have to keep tabs on both! Link

We are indeed working on a DSi product. - Tetris Friends’ Twitter Tetris on DSiWare should easily make a killing. Too bad we have to wait on more details for whatever project is in the works. We don’t even know if it’s DSiWare or not. Thanks to BigAl for the heads up!

This will get you a DSi-themed SagA II DSi, for a fraction of the price! It may only be an accessory shell, but it’s pretty nice! Link

I was following this story earlier today, and when I left for my night off, the issue was unresolved. Now that I’ve come back to work, I can see that the GamePro staffer that was under fire has now been let go. Long story short, he directly copied lines from IGN’s review of [...]

A portion of a NWR review: Overall, My Sims Racing is a surprisingly tight game with great production values and a lot of heart, and it can’t be recommended highly enough for the younger gamers among us.

An interview with Ray Muzyka, CEO of BioWare, responsible for the blissfully violent Dragon Age game.
