E3: Devil May Cry
Hack and slash video game that made it as an anime – Devil May Cry also made it to E3 2012. DmC: Devil May Cry is still very much in development despite being announced at the 2010 Tokyo Game Show. It follows a parallel universe version of the hero Dante. It’s due out in 2013 […]
E3: Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
This strikes me as one of those games that could be really great or really bad – but nothing in between. It might even be a game like Blue Dragon which some people found to be great and others hated. It’s a game from Level-5 and they’ve brought on Studio Ghibli to help with the […]
E3: Resident Evil 6
Resident Evil has transformed itself from a sneak and horror franchise to a game of action on an epic scale. Capcom’s latest in the series, Resident Evil 6, is due out in October 2012 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. A PC release will follow. It’s expected to support between 1 and 4 players […]
E3: Lost Planet 3
Okay, I’ll admit it Geek Native’s coverage of Lost Planet 2 may not have been very flattering. This blogger found some videos which seemed to focus on the jiggly boobs of the female space pirates. Was that what Lost Planet 2 was about? The official trailer for Lost Planet 3 looks very different. The game […]

The level cap will be going up and with comes Makeb, a new planet, that is the centre of attention for the Hutt Cartel. There’s a new Warzone in the form of […]

Now it has a name; GamePad. The device has a gyroscope/accelerometer, a NFC reader/writer as well as a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, d-pad […]
Collider #1 – Life or Death
Collider is a new sci-fi series that looks to launch on the web first, then come to comic and perhaps even make a movie. It features a group of people who find themselves in a post-apocalyptic 2018. The series was created by Nuno Bernardo and Geek Native has an exclusive interview with him. The actor […]
Traveller 5 will Kickstart
Traveller 5 has, at the time of this post, a full 27 days to go to collect its goal of $24,000 on Kickstarter. No surprises here – but Traveller 5 will become another runaway RPG success on the crowdsourcing platform. As I write this introduction, the game has 305 backers and is fast approaching $41,000 […]
Musical steampunk ghostbusters
I do like to dip into the League of STEAM now and then. I think the web-based series (webisodes? online show?) should easily score far more views that it seems to. They to do have star pulling power, Dining with the Devil featured Robin Thorsen from The Guild and Doug Jones from Hellboy and Pan’s […]
