    It's funny, I was trying to install Wiz 8 (via discs) on Win 7 with no joy about 2 or so days ago thinking 'man, can't believe GOG haven't hooked this game yet' and low an behold, here it is only 2 days later, great minds, great games ;)

    Resident Evil 6 Review

    Wow, congratulations capcom, I've never seen a game with lower user ratings on metacritic then this: http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/resident-evil-6 There's definitely anger directed towards the series direction has since 4/5. It's a pretty clear pattern right now: Publisher assumes...

    PopCap Hit With More Layoffs

    'Almost there EA, just a few for more.' Very sad and very unsurprising, expect to see the same with Bioware in the coming years...

    BioWare Co-Founders Retire

    Hate to say this, but being owned by EA and having the two lead visionaries / creative leads leaving is a bad combination if past history tells us anything. I think that's pretty much the end of BioWare I'm afraid...

    EA Exec Explains PopCap Layoffs

    The beginning of the end? Never understood why a company doing as well as Popcap felt the need accept a buyout (other than the payout of course), especially from EA!

    Notch Dumps on EA "Indie Bundle"

    You know what, I'll have to take back my last post and adjust it a little because after checking wordweb, indie means: -(of pop groups) not affiliated with a major recording company -A pop group not affiliated with a major record company -An independent film company not associated with an...

    Notch Dumps on EA "Indie Bundle"

    I agree with the statement that a big problem with this debate stems from the fact that people have different ideas about the meaning of indie / independent. I'll risk giving a definitive meaning here: An Indie / Independent entity is someone that creates the product / content they want to...

    Notch Dumps on EA "Indie Bundle"

    While EA IS the ultimate 'nickle-&-dime-em-fest', if you put a bunch of games together for sale developed by independent developers, it's, like it or not, an indie bundle. It makes no difference whether it's EA, Jim's garage, humblebundle or Gay-Bob publishing / fronting it. As far as each...

    Indie Game Dev Extols the Virtues of Zynga

    I firmly believe you can still make a ton of money without being a c*ck ninja (hope that doesn't get me warned / banned). It's true there's no (few) original ideas anymore but blatantly ripping a game, re-skinning it and adding a +1 to some / all features here and there is dodgy if you...

    Sony Admits Private PSN Info Has Been Stolen - All Of It

    I'm confused as to why they seem to have stored passwords in their database in the first place as it's common practice 'NOT' to store the actual password of users, of course, if they've got everything else I suppose the password being protected provides very little comfort. :S

    Hydrophobia Gets Massive Fixes, New Price

    That has to be one of the most fully-featured free updates I've ever seen in a game, I give the new trial a try and maybe a purchase. Only concern (assuming the issues are fixed) is the game length, how many hours does it clock?

    Spector Says Critics "Misunderstand" Epic Mickey

    No problem, I'm not trying to argue or anything either, I think most of your points are true, for the hype, it's definitely a fail and metacritic does have it's critics so to speak so peeps can take what they will from it :D However I just felt overall the comments here (not specifically...

    Spector Says Critics "Misunderstand" Epic Mickey

    Hmm, since I haven't played it I don't know if it's as bad as the Escapist and 2 lowest reviews say (just happens to be 2 of the lowest reviews on metacritic) however, I wouldn't consider 29 positive reviews versus 9 mixed reviews (10 if you include the escapist) an Epic FAIL (that's decent by...
