Things get progressively destructive…
My growing years were dominated by space flight games. X-Wing, Tie Fighter, Elite, Wing Commander, Privateer. It’s been a sad, lonely gaming existence without them over the past decade or so, so it’s just the best to see the genre making a spirited comeback. Star Citizen looks great, CCP’s EVE shooteris a dream come true…
You know, normally, our weekly cosplay roundup features costumes from series like Final Fantasy, or Assassin’s Creed, or Zelda. This week is a welcome change, though, because it’s going to feature some stuff I never dreamed I’d get the chance to feature here. Like Warhammer. And…Ace Ventura.

Criterion, the guys behind the Burnout series and the good Need For Speed games (not the movie), are going through what you could call a transitional period.

The real joy of playing a game on PC is that, thanks to mods, your entire experience can be improved by the work of dedicated fans. Because some mods are so extensive, transforming almost everything about the source title, we felt it was only fair to list 12 of the best of them here, since…

It sounds stupid on paper, but the PS Vita TV is one of the most interesting, and for my life situation appealing pieces of gaming tech to come along in a long time.

Firstly because the game’s not technically finished yet.…
It wasn’t until 2005, when Valve began signing on external publishers, that the service really blew up
Or, for our Argentinian readers who do live in Argentina…I’m sorry. So sorry. Americans have it made. Gamers in Europe and Australia (and elsewhere!) pay a lot more, comparatively, for games and hardware. But the PAL Tax is nothing on what gamers in other markets, like those in South America, face. Small consumer bases As…
