Atari has announced that its upcoming open-world drive-a-thon,Test Drive Unlimited 2, will hit shelves on February 8 for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. The game has players zooming around the gorgeous island of Ibeza, which sounds a hell of a lot better than what I plan on doing in February. (Hint: It involves climbing into bed under a warm blanket.) The publisher is also detailing the pre-order options for the game, which will net you a different in-game items depending on what retailer you’ve sworn your allegiance to....

Does anybody out there rememberFriday Robot Intermissions? Well for one day only (or until I find another robot video), I’m bringing them back. One of theactorsfrom Beat Down Boogie, the creators of the web seriesModern War Gear Solid, decided to put together a Daft Punk-inspired mobile dance party/robot suit and unleash it on Dragon*Con. It gave me the great idea to make anASIMOcosplay and spend hours walking up stairs while onlookers ooh and ahh....

And tips for those final bosses Dragon Quest Heroesmade my weekend disappear. I had already invested enough time in finishing all of the side quests that I figured I might as well strive for full completion, but a few optional bosses stood in the way. They areabsurdlydifficult unless you’re at a high level (my whole group was in the mid-80s or above) and have the right mix of equipment. Even then, it’s a struggle....

“ENEMY AC-130 ABOVE!” If you immediately hear this voiceline in your head and feel a shiver down your spine, then do I have the indie game for you. The classic AC-130 gunship killstreak that made its mark on gaming culture way back inCall of Duty: Modern Warfare 2has beenVampire Survivors-ized in a fun indie title that was brought to my attention this morning, and I’ve been having a good bit of fun playing it so far in its early access offering....

But in what capacity? This “Game Day 2013 Teaser” video just appeared on the official PlayStation YouTube channel. While it’s unmarked except for the date “June 07, 2025,” it sure does look like it’s hyping something related toGod of War. Specifically, I’m guessing it’s for a live-action spot, which seems to bethe norm these daysas game companies have realized they can be proactive rather than merely let fans bring their properties to life....

See you in Las Vegas! I’m getting ready to head out to Vegas this Sunday to cover a bit of CES 2013, so, I don’t really have anything big planned for this evening’s show. However, we’ll still be doing our regular Friday night thing atMash Tactics, where we get together, and play a variety of multiplayer games with the live crowd. You’ll just have to tune in and find out what’s going down!...

Or maybe just try and find your lost self-respect this Famicom Friday Konami’s output on the Famicom was simply amazing. While we certainly got some good games on this side of the pond, such asCastlevaniaandContra, there were a plethora of great titles that stayed in their homeland. They were once a playful company with a cohesive catalog. Many games in their early days made reference to their other releases, and they even pioneered the idea of crossover titles withKonami Wai Wai World....

Updated: June 07, 2025 Added a new code. First things first, the title doesn’t lie. What you do inWatcher of Realmsis, indeed, watch the realms. The core gameplay is centered around standard tower defense features, where you deploy your heroes onto the battleground and pick a fitting strategy for each unique map. Don’t think you can sit back and let your squad do the hard work, however! You weren’t raised back from the dead to command an army for no reason....

After a few years of bubbling anticipation, the latest entry inThe Legend of Zeldaseries has finally arrived, andaccording to reviews, it just might be worth the extra $10 Nintendo convinced everyone to pay for it.

Deep psychological analysis inbound! World of Warcraft’sbeen out for over a decade now, and the newest expansionLegionis on the horizon. New expansions are always a good time to get into an MMO, and I’ve personally been wandering around Azeroth as a newcomer for the last couple of weeks. If you’re starting out, there is one choice that is more difficult than any other. One that follows you wherever you go, and directly impacts which bits of the world you get to access: your race....
