EA and Grasshopper Manufacture’s gory horror “Shadows of the Damned” has taken a turn for the outright silly with their “Enlarge Your Johnson” video. Not really sure what to say about this – except, fear not (quite so much), as “Johnson” refers to your weapon. Okay, the hero might hold his gun in, um, interesting […]
Darkspore: Skar the Shadow of Death
I’ve copies of Darkspore on order but to be honest I put that pre-order based on the fact that the game is somewhat related to Spore. I’m an RPGer at heart so am a little cautious about the mosh-melee vibes I’m getting from Darkspore but do remember how much fun Dungeon Siege I was so […]
Everything is True
Everything is True is a rather brave rather from EA and Funcom for The Secret World. It’s brave (not because it runs to the end without snagging) as it spends most of the three minutes showing us nothing. There’s some teaser clips from the game at the start but then we move on to the […]
EA enjoying Fox’s Bulletstorm tantrums
“I loved it when Fox News did the lesbian aliens on Mass Effect.” How’s that for a quote? It comes from Frank Gibeau, the boss of EA Games. Here’s the context. We first got a gimpse of Bulletstorm’s marketing tactics with their Halo spoofing Last Call ad. At the time Geek Native asked whether mocking […]
Star Wars: The Old Republic trailer
This is a rather straight forward but also rather brilliant trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic. It’s a bit of a mass catch up that shows scenes and landscapes we’re all familiar with, introduces the Sith, the war and then characters will be familiar with. Despite these introductions this The Old Republic trailer doesn’t […]
Darkspore beta trailer
Darkspore is nearly the sequel to Spore. It’s a little different. For a start, EA are referring to it as a “Sci-Fi Action RPG”. Maxis Studio are still involved. In Darkspore the story starts with the player being woken up by Helix, a female AI, after eons of cryogenic sleep. The player is one of […]
Will the Bulletstorm Cliffy B trailer make your head explode?
There’s been nothing but drama about EA’s Bulletstorm. We’ve had Americans says it encourages rape and Germans censor the game. Now we’ve got a short new trailer. Things blow up. I wonder whether the “Cliffy B” trailer has been designed with TV in mind. It’s short and punchy enough. I’m still wondering whether EA will […]
Sony Ericsson announce the Xperia Pro and Xperia Neo
We all saw the “PlayStation phone” coming. It’s also known as the Xperia Play and Sony Ericsson describe it as the first “PlayStation certified smartphone”. It turns out that Sony Ericsson had a few more goodies up their sleeves for Mobile World Barcelona. Here’s what EA’s VP of Worldwilde Studios for EA Mobile has to […]
Crysis 2: Be Strong
There’s no shortage of Crysis 2 trailers. There’s a round up of the first three here. There’s also more than a few people wondering what’s in the Crysis 2 Nano edition?. However, it’s been a little while since we’ve had any more content from this highly anticipated game. It’s about time for more teaser trailer […]
Facebook RPG: Dragon Age Legends trailer channels traditional RPG
Dragon Age Legends is a Facebook RPG with a difference. You can sign up at their Facebook page and even apply for a beta pass – good luck with the latter, that opened today and the server is suffering from death. What’s the difference between Dragon Age Legends and something like Endless Chaos or the […]
