Mere hours ago, Sony took the hype train straight out of the station with their tease of a big announcement coming on February 20. It seemed likely that the event, which will be live-streamed, would be a reveal of the next PlayStation console, code-named Orbis. The Wall Street Journal is now reporting that “people familiar…

Last week, while I was checking out Splinter Cell: Blacklist, I had a long, interesting talk with the game’s creative director Maxime Béland. Béland, who also worked on the first Assassin’s Creed and was creative director on Rainbow Six: Vegas and Splinter Cell: Conviction, is an interesting guy to chat with. He’s sharp, and was…

In this poignant article at Gameological, one writer has his Magic collection appraised to dispiriting result.
Thanks to My Inner Fred for making this “Official Pro Wizard” video of Ni no Kuni. (It’s somewhat spoilery, in that it shows some stuff from after the first act.) Wait for the drop at 0:36. Who says that shooters should get all the great bro-tastic NoScope videos? This game does have motherfucking management, after…

One of the more inflammatory aspects of 2010’s Splinter Cell: Conviction was the fact that it included a number of gruesome interactive torture sequences.

But Valve co-founder Gabe Newell has another competitor on his mind: Apple. Polygon reports that Newell, speaking today to…
The splendid new role-playing game Ni no Kuni is, in many ways, a game about stories. It’s a fairy tale of the purest sort, full of morals and messages, overflowing with heart.

The more venerable and successful a video-game series, the trickier it must be to make sequels. Fans who have been around since the beginning likely start feeling a bit put-out about changes made over the years, changes that welcomed the very newcomers who might balk at an old-school return to form. That conundrum certainly seems…
If you’ve been paying attention to our burgeoning mobile coverage, you can’t have missed talk of Arranger, an iOS game by musician Arman Bohn from a few months ago that recently got an updated iPad version.

Xbox Live is green across the board. Resume your deathmatching and Netflixing.
Sound like something that you’d only see in a video game? Well, thanks to the maniac YouTube weaponcrafter Joreg Sprave, it’s also something that exists in real life. Granted, it’s a javelin with a very small chainsaw on the end, but I don’t think that distinction would matter if you caught one of these suckers…
