UPdate On Ex-1UP & EGM Staff And New Projects

UPdate On Ex-1UP & EGM Staff And New Projects

by Michael Camacho [ Thursday, 22nd of January 2009 - 05:02 PM ]

After the layoffs at 1UP.com and EGM a couple weeks ago, many wondered what the future would hold for the 40 some employees now without jobs. Fortunately for many of them, they banded together to start various new projects. As one of their fans, I've had the chance to witness and experience these new projects, and here is the basic rundown. Rebel FM&Eat-sleep-game.com: Former staffers Anthony Gallegos, Nick Suttner, Phillip Kollar, and others bring you the first project. Read More...

Flower Set for Release

Flower Set for Release

by Jesse [ Wednesday, 21st of January 2009 - 12:42 AM ]

In 2007, ThatGameCompany released their first game for the PS3. The game entitled Flow, was a vastly enhanced remake of the original award-winning flash game that had been released for Windows and Mac. Now theyâ€™re set for their second PS3 release with Flower, a game that is a successor of sorts to Flow. Officially set for release on February 12th on the PlayStation Store, Flower has players control flower petals as they float in the wind through a variety of environments. As with Flow, Flowerâ€™s biggest attractions thus far is its unique and artistic design. Read More...

The First Black Video Game Character

The First Black Video Game Character

by Kevin [ Tuesday, 20th of January 2009 - 02:53 PM ]

So over at Vintage Computing and Gaming they discuss, what could possibly be, the first video game character of color."Tomorrow, the United States will inaugurate its first black president, Barack Obama. In honor of this watershed moment in American history, I thought we should pay tribute to another African-American trailblazer: the first black video game character. After exhaustive research, I believe Iâ€™ve found him.Thirty years ago (1979), the first obviously black video game character appeared in Basketball, programmed by Alan Miller for the Atari 800 home computer.

The Real World Of Gaming

The Real World Of Gaming

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Thursday, 15th of January 2009 - 05:55 PM ]

WCG's The Ultimate Gamer You may have heard of this, but you also may not have. What is it, well like the header alludes to, it is a new reality TV show on Sci Fi showing who is the ultimate gamer out of a selection of 12 professional, and extremely good gamers. Yes, I know it sounds odd at first, but let me explain, or at least watch the trailer below, or check out their site. See, not only do they take real gamers, people you might have actually played against at some point, but they also test them to see if they can do these virtual skills in the real world as well. Not to mention if they can handle the gaming side under different and unusual circumstances. Read More...

[PC Review] Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People

[PC Review] Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 15th of December 2008 - 04:06 AM ]

Episodes 1-4 So I want to preface this review with a little something. I am a casual Strong Bad fan. By that I mean that I watch the flash videos every now and then and am not so entrenched into the whole Strong Bad world or Strongbaddia world if you will. I thought this important so the hard core fans don’t say I am leaning one way or the other. With that said, here we go. For the most part this game plays through, via “episodes,” much like the clips of flash video. Read More...

Game Over!

Exclusive Saw The Video Game Update So over a month ago, I reported on a game adaptation of the Film Saw. I was really excited, but reports are coming in that it was just given the cut, pardon the pun, much like 20 people from Brash Entertainment. A very sad thing, for both those 20 and the gaming community. Hey, it is always bad when a game that could be awesome gets cut. At least I thought it would be awesome. Read More...

Halo 3 Recon is 5-6 Hours Long

by Sam [ Thursday, 13th of November 2008 - 07:08 PM ]

Those who got their hands on the December issue of Game Informer might have read about the upcoming Halo 3 expansion Halo 3: Recon. The game is in fact 3-5 hours long, which is very short. The game should also be a very low price. Bungie's Joe Staten says "We do not view this at a $60 title". Hopefully $20-$30. Also mentioned is the expansion will allow users to unlock previously unlockable Recon armor, if you completed the Vidmaster Challenge Achievement. Read More...

Saw Game By Halloween 2009 So as most of you are aware of, there is a film series called Saw. They are up to number V (that's 5 in Roman Numerals) now. With more in the works. But that isn't the big news here seeing as this is a gaming site. So why am I wasting your time writing this. Well filler right now. But more importantly, and game related, the people who brought you the Saw films have released a Press Release stating that they will have a game out by the time the Sixth movie hits the big screen. All with the premise of bridging the first two films together a bit better. Read More...
