    Risen 3: Titan Lords Teaser Trailer Pits Sword Against Demon

    Agreed, although I loved Gothic 3, when it didn't bug out and despawned half the enemies on the world. Being raised with old school western RPGs like Fallout and Baldur's Gate, a game having soul is more important than being flawless to me; Piranha Bytes' games have tons of it even though they...

    Candy Crush Dev: Microtransactions Are The Future of Games

    "X is doing really well right now, so lets forget about all other options and every company just do X." That is stupid in so many ways, this is not how the economy works mister "Game Guru.", you see companies make differnt products to fulfill the different needs and wants of their customers...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Review - Pirate this Game!

    5 out of 5 when ubisoft keeps a flawed combat system in a game series supposedly about assassination? If all reviewers have this kind of attitude on triple A games, perfect scores should mean perfect games, nothing will change and this part of the industry will keep stagnating.

    The Big Picture: The Big Letdown

    This means that bob might take a second look at Elysium and its countless plot holes, unlikable characters and lack of narrative focus? Nah probably not, it has an IN YOUR FACE POLITICAL MESSA... pew pew explosions, happily ever after, the end. Because violence solves everything and a handfull...

    The Big Picture: You Are Wrong About Sucker Punch, Part One

    I am pretty sure that the film is told not from the perspective of Baby Doll but Sweet Pea; that seemed pretty obvious at the end. And it makes sense that Baby Doll would not create these scenes in her mind since she is the probably most sane one in the assylum. Btw. am I the only one not...

    No Right Answer: Best Animated Disney Movie Ever

    No Lion King? No Hunchback of Notre Dame? Those movies were haunting, yes Alladin was awesome, Beauty and the Beast was totally forgettable to me.

    Movie Trailers: Iron Sky - Trailer

    About time! Can't wait for movie Bob's review... For our 'merican friends, this is a satire, mostly aimed at you, so don't expect to see a politically correct, holywood-type, blockbuster, action movie. You were warned... Still it is a pretty awesome movie.

    Catholics, Buddhists Join Hindu Protests Against Smite

    Very unlikely that they do, the cristian faith would go up in arms protesting and sueing and the muslims (the very dangerous minority) would do much more than that. However I think the game developers expected that to happen, if not count on it for free publicity, it is easy to mess with hindu...

    Trailers: Assassin's Creed III: E3 Official Trailer

    That is the worst assassination plan ever, really I have no idea how, out of all the possible plans this guy had, the "Charge through the whole army to murder a single commander." one won. That was a really bad video, definitely not how an Assassins Creed game should be, it more like Dynasty...

    Zero Punctuation: Risen 2: Dark Waters

    Am I the only one who enjoyed the game? I found the training system very fitting for the theme since it made you go out and explore the world and seek treasure in order to train, it is a pirate game after all; and the gothic series is known for its open world. Really it has the same problems as...

    Trailers: Crysis 3 - Debut Trailer

    I giggled with the "The greatest city on earth..."; could you be more patriotic, Crytek Frankfurt? oh wait... Nope, I am thinking the same thing, I guess they thought at some point that navigating bipedal robotsuits with obvious exposed vital points was a more sound tactical choise. Crysis...

    Escapist Podcast: 039: Game of Thrones and Survival Horror

    They can't just not show the battle in the second season of GOT, it takes up 1/3rd of the book, and it does have plenty of character development (Tyrion, the hound, Davos etc.), not just blood and gore.
