    Activision has yet again brought us a new “Hero” series game, this time venturing away from the guitar, drums, and microphone to bring us DJ Hero. Yes another metal and plastic instrument for are already overcrowded living rooms. There are two versions of the game the regular edition and the Renegade Edition featuring Jay-Z and Eminem. There are only 2 differences on the hardware that I’ve found so far one being the knobs on the Renegade edition are metal compared to plastic on the regu...
  • Ubisoft Premieres New DRM Strategy [Update]

    For the PC Gamers out there, DRM has been a big issue in the past years.  Starting with the Settlers 7 Beta, Ubisoft is changing their DRM forecast to cloudy . In future Ubisoft PC titles, including Assassin's Creed II, players will be required to log into their Ubi.com account each time they launch the game. That means that you'll always need to be connected to the internet to play your games. Although this is where most of the comment raging will happen, I think the bigger issue is that gamer...

    I have a confession. I knew almost nothing of this game until one of my friends pointed it out to me as one of his most anticipated games of 2009. I looked it up and was less than impressed with the game play visuals I found but when I noticed this game was coming from Bioware, I immediately rushed out to buy this title based purely on Bioware’s track record. I loved the Knights of the Old Republic series, Jade Empire was a great title that I’m still hopeful will get a sequel and of course M...

    You may remember the big EA Spouse shakeup that happened back in 2004, but evidently Rockstar games didn't hear about it, or didn't care. For those of you who are foggy on the topic, EA Spouse was a user on Livejournal who wrote a short essay about the poor working conditions and unpaid overtime at EA. After the media got a hold of it, EA found themselves at the business end of a class action lawsuit that lost them about $15 million. A similar situation is unfolding now with Rockstar. A post ...

    The Dynamic duo of Ratchet and Clank return for an eight time together, and are once again tasked with Saving the Universe from the forces of Dr. Naferious. Join the fun and travel across the galaxy on a joy ride full of mayhem and the usual comedic delight you have come to expect from Insomniac games.

  • Do-It-Yourself Team Fortress 2

    Valve's ever-updating Team Fortress 2 has always supported user generated content from maps to mods (client and serverside) to sound clips and machinima. They've also traditionally included popular community made maps in their big updates, but they've taken it a step further and allowed users to submit items and avatars for Team Fortress 2 directly to Valve. Although it was a joke before, it's now official: The fastest, most reliable way to get a hat in TF2 is to go make one yourself. Once app...
