    Is Shenmue Coming to XBLA?

    I really hope this happens. Dug out my Dreamcast and original copies of the games a while ago, and they're still as incredible as ever. Fingers crossed this implies some thoughts about Shenmue 3/the final episodes. That would be amazing.

    Recession Drives Board Game Bounceback

    I like this. I'm an avid gamer of both board and computer games, and there's definitly a greater sense of a social activity when board gaming. Here at home we like to sit down to a good game of settlers now-and-then. We've also had a couple of mildly disasterous attempts at Agricola (Excellent...

    The Canceled Division 9 Was Left 4 Dead Before Valve Did It

    This sounds like the zombie game of my dreams. Free roaming, city exploring, base building, supply scrounging, zombie killing? Yes please. I'd have this over L4D any day. Please someone make a zombie game like this.

    Homeland Security Delayed The Monsterpocalypse!

    This reminds me of the 1990 Steve Jackson Games raid. http://www.sjgames.com/SS/ A vendetta/conspiracy against board games perhaps? I think so.

    Poll: 90s cartoons or 00s cartoons?

    I grew up in the '90s, so I guess I'm pretty biased about it. Nothing like getting up at 6 in the morning to catch your favourite cartoon. And I still remember the first day Pokemon aired in the uk. I saw someone mention Bucky O'Hare. That was an awesome cartoon, I used to have the figures...

    Review: Assassin's Creed 2

    I really really like this game. I enjoyed the original quite a bit, though the end was godawful. I'm hoping it's better this time round (I'm very nearly there). I have to say I enjoyed obtaining all the seals, it was reminiscent of the Prince of Persia puzzles (not a huge surprise I suppose...

    Poll: Would you be here at the Escapist If Zero Puncutition wasn't here?

    A freind linked me ZP, and that's how I found the site, but now, even if ZP stopped I'd hang around for the interesting articles, newspieces, videos and reviews.

    Zero Punctuation: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

    I gotta say, the game is beautiful in terms of graphics, and I was only playing it on the 360, so I imagine a high-end pc is even better. But yeah, the story basically came across as every Tom Clancy/James Patterson etc thriller rolled together into one big completely insane package.
