This is why many people will give the LoTR RPG a go. This trailer for the game is a mashup with the Lord of the Rings movies along with War in the North gameplay. Two thumbs up to the skillful blending of the two. I think the official word to describe this trailer is “touchpoints” […]
Dragon Age 2: Legacy trailer
Legacy is a DLC for Dragon Age 2. It deals with the thorny issue of magic seals on a prison beginning to fade – and all the trouble that sort of situation is bound to create. What’s your view of Dragon Age 2? Is it BioWare at their best? Everything you hoped for in a […]
Dragons Dogma trailer
In the spirit of “It’s not an RPG – its a non-linear fantasy adventure” comes Dragons Dogma from Capcom. To be fair to Capcom, this is a fighting game, it’s a romp across an open world and pulls on the MT Framework engine. That’s the beast behind the lighting effects and graphics of Resident Evil […]
War in the North: Beleram
I’ve given War in the North plenty of coverage on Geek Native because it’s a Lord of the Rings game. The one franchise to rule them all. There’s been a common theme; heroes get in big strike, wonderful giant eagle swoops in and saves them. I was wondering whether this was a “call in an […]
Rise of Nightmares trailer
This blogger isn’t all that into horror games… well, except for anything Cthulhu flavoured, or perhaps BioShock and DeadSpace, so, erm, not really into horror games unless they’re touch with the holy goodness of RPGism. One of the reasons I struggle with some horror games is – even though I see it coming – I’ll […]
Sony announce new PS3 model
There is a new PlayStation 3 on it’s way. It’ll be released in Japan at least and the official page is up with all the details. We’re looking at a new PS3 that consumes less power, is lighter in weight and has a 320 gigabyte hard disk. The pricing looks to be about the same […]
Bleach Soul Ignition ad
This is the very first Bleach game for the PlayStation 3. It’s not surprising that Sony have ponyed up for a juicy TV ad. Okay, it’s not the first Bleach game as there have been plenty for the PSP but it’s funny how they don’t seem to count all of a sudden. A word of […]
Will social games save the Wii U?
I don’t have a blu-ray player; I have a PlayStation 3. I don’t yet have a tablet. I wonder if in a year’s time I’ll be able to say; “I don’t have a tablet. I have a Wii U”? So far the Wii U has generated a lot of blog chat but it’s not impressed […]
Alice: Madness Returns fan made trailer of dooooom!
We have the offical Alice: Madness Returns trailer over here. It’s not bad at all. It’s hard to capture sinister creepy in just a few minutes. That’s why this fan made trailer for Spicy Horse‘s highly anticipated game is all that much more impressive. It’s really quiet sinister. Watch out for the syringe that has […]
Robin Williams is the Zelda elemental
This advert for Ocarina of Time 3D gets off to a flying start once you recognise Robin Williams‘ voice. The kicker, of course, is that Williams is a huge Zelda fan. In fact, he named his daughter after Princess Zelda. Can you think of anyone better to promote the 3D game?
