Another Awesome Live-Action Clip From…FIFA

They don’t get much attention from gaming sites, probably because lol EA Sports, but every year Electronic Arts goes nuts with their live-action commercials for FIFA. It’s the company’s biggest-selling game pimping the world’s biggest sport, so a certain level of expenditure is to be expected, but the money they spend boggles the mind. Getting…

Your Box Art Is Drawn By Talented Humans

One of the reasons I run Fine Art is so that artists, who play such a major role in shaping our attachment with our favourite series, get some of the recognition they deserve. That goes double for the images on the front of the box. Even today, in the age of digital downloads, the single…

Sir, Your Street Fighter Collection Is An Inspiration To Us All

I love people who only collect one type of video game. Just collecting games doesn’t have quiet the same dash of mad obsessiveness as someone who specialises in a single series. As we’ll see in this case, with Street Fighter. Clarence Lim, who also does some mean cosplay, has “a complete catalogue of NTSC1 Street…

That’s One Less Free-To-Play Game To Worry About

There once was a game called Hardware: Shipbreakers. Made by some ex-Relic developers, it was going to be a free-to-play game. Now that it’s got Gearbox money behind it, however, that won’t be necessary. Phew.

Ouya’s “Free the Games Fund” promises to double a crowdfunded game’s money—if it releases exclusively for the Android console. The potential for abuse should be apparent to anyone with a brain.
