The media.
It’s pretty much full of hate on computer games these days, too many Jack Thompson’s, Glenn Beck’s and Dr. James Dobson’s.
So I was very surprised and lifted, when I spotted an article written by Ross McGuinness in the local Metro paper.
In the article Ross points out that “violent video games actually reduce aggression rather […]

I tend to visit my local WHSmith store at least a few times each week. It’s handy at lunch time to just pop in for the latest games magazine or even just to see what new software is up on the shelves.
Over the last couple of weeks though I’d been noticing some changes to their […]

Well, I just couldn’t resist it, although the current screens in all reality won’t be what the game looks like, I am ever hopeful that the Aliens: Colonial Marines game will live up to my hopes.
I spent a huge amount of time playing the previous iterations on pc, but they really shined in multiplayer.

Sooooo… there were multiple ideas I had for this, along the same style but with different endings, I have them sketched and might upload them at some point as extra content.
Not as pleased with the artwork on this one, think the previous Portal themed comic was better, still this has lots of nice pretty colours.

‘Aliens : Colonial Marines’ is coming to the next-gen platforms, but it’s going to be a bit of a fair old wait until it’s 2009 release. Plenty of time then for us to salivate over every little piece of information and drool over some rather glossy looking screenshots.
Developed by FPS veterans Gearbox Studios, and published […]

As of midnight tonight(5am GMT) logging into multiplayer you are greeted with a blackscreenfreeze and an error message. So glad I rented the game this week. I would appreciate it if all the people responsible would commit suicide immediately, as they have shamed the honor of Xbox Live and have lost their right to breath […]
