The original version of a Boy and His Blob for the NES was a great concept but frustrating to say the least. This new version of A Boy and His Blob for Nintendo Wii seems to have solved the problems of the original and delivered a fun game with super adorable characters.
If you like the setting of Eve Online, but don’t find the dense, economics-heavy gameplay scintillating, CCP is making Dust 514 just for you. You can still inhabit the Eve universe, but you’re pretty much just shooting guns at it instead of destroying financial systems.
Unfortunately, while the kind of grim space setting is fairly unique for an MMO (as is just about everything about Eve), it’s kind of … well-heeled in the FPS world. As in, there’s nothing particularly novel about seeing an FPS that takes place in a gritty sci-fi world. That said, this looks like a good … one of those, and the MMO idea and Eve integration still manage to be interesting. And in general, we like the idea of using the same universe to express totally different game concepts — like how WWE Crush Hour spun off from the wrestling games. Bad example.
For players still clamoring to return to the world of MechAssault, Front Mission Evolved may help cater to their needs. While the game’s current state looks pretty rough, the Robot vs. Other Giant Robot action is fun, fast and fulfilling. Front Mission Evolved features a limited array of weaponry, but its quick pace actually had me hooked while it lasted. If the action becomes a little too harsh — and the game did pose a challenge during my brief demo with the Xbox 360 version — tapping the ‘Y’ button slows down time and turns every weapon in your arsenal to an automatic victory cannon.

“Based on EAP-technology “Funktionide” is a concept for an emotional robot that substitutes human contact. In a future where technology will play a huge part in our lifes it is very likely that some day it will shift from satisfiying our basic funtional needs to include our emotional needs as well.”
All I want to know is if it can turn into a ladder?
The sequel to first-person zombie shooter Left 4 Dead will debut a new competitive game option titled Scavenge Mode, developers Valve Software have revealed.
Thew newest trailer for Modern Warfare 2 is truly epic. It brings new meaning to the words “Capitol Wateland.”
“Cain was the first man to strike down another. when the Lord came to him and said what have you done.
Cain could not hide his crime for the voice of his brothers blood cried out from the very ground.”
The world has been the battlefield, everywhere you go the blood of brothers and sons screams out against you. Perhaps you can not yet hear it, because the soil is not your own, but you will.
(Camera rises showing Capitol hill and the Washington Monument in complete destruction)
“….you will.”
Now that was a Game Trailer! Normally I’m a Soul Caliber kinda guy, but after seeing this one, I might have to check out the game. (Ya I know it wasn’t actual gameplay, but I gotta give them props for a BAMF trailer)
