“First Strike” is the first DLC for Call of Duty: Black Ops. Whereas Call of Duty doesn’t really get that much of a look in here at Geek Native there are certainly some things the mega popular game can do it get our attention. For example; zombies. Sure enough, players who grab Call of Duty: […]
Nintendo Gamecube three times more popular than Xbox 360 in Japan
You might have heard that the Xbox isn’t very popular in Japan. It’s true. There’s lots of reasons why this is the case – it’s the console from America, the games don’t always suit the Japanese market and the PlayStation 2 is so incredibly strong there. The Nintendo DS is even stronger. A recent survey […]
LittleBigPlanet 2 in real life
Something to distract you this lunch time. This isn’t about Sack Boy escaping Little Big Planet to invade our life and jump on our cows. No. This is about Little Big Planet being made real and manifest by the talented team at Escapist Magazine. It’s never wise to check out YouTube comments. This is one […]
Duke Nukem Forever trailer: would you still hit it?
I think we can sum up the Duke Nukem Forever with the familiar mantra of “guns, girls and explosions”. And aliens. Aliens and humuor. It’s an interesting mix. I’m in two minds about Duke Nukem; one half respects the nostalgia and the second half would needs more RPG juice to make picking this up worthwhile. […]
LittleBigPlanet 2 rocked by “Kill Obama” levels
My copy of LittleBigPlanet 2 is sitting on the table waiting to be played. It just has to wait until I finally finish off Fallout New Vegas. That’ll happen soon because I really want to play LittleBigPlanet again. What I don’t want is to stumble into stupid American political diatribe. The team over at Destructoid […]
Final Fantasy XIII-2 confirmed
There will be a sequel to Final Fantasy XIII. This isn’t the surprise it could have been because the clever internet noticed Square Enix’s domain name registration company buyng a Final Fantasy XIII-2 domain. The official Final Fantasy XIII-2 site is a microsite on Square-Enix right now though. Oh. And it’s in Japanese. At the […]
Kinect controlled robot – the first Kinect controlled model?
This video is frightfully impressive. This is all the work of a hobbyist and V-Sido software, which, if you want, you can get here. As you watch this video think about the robot’s balance. It simply isn’t falling over despite leaning quite some distances in some of the Kinect-powered poses. It’s impressive stuff. This particular […]
Freak Mario to save Mario?
This is a bit messed up. It’s a YouTube video designed to grab the attention of Shigeru Miyamoto the creator of Mario. It’s messed up. Really, it’s hard to say much about this freakish video except that the author clearly thinks Mario has been lead down the nightmare path to destruction. Freaky. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=863GSlfp9Uw One more […]
Bulletstorm ad mocks Halo ad
Cast your mind back to 2007. It was an era before we had Microsoft Kinect but we still had the Xbox and we still had Halo. In fact, Halo 3 was due out and Microsoft had put together a dramatic and take-me-seriously advert for the game. It was called Believe. Here’s a reminder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXeST0NMtic Keep […]
