Whether you’ve noticed it or not, gaming headsets are more common than ever. Not only do gamers want to hear the sound, but they also want to communicate with the people they’re playing online with. And if you’re playing a certain genre of games, sound can be a crucial part; with current audio technology, you can literally [...]

Sorry if we’re late on the articles. We still have more E3 coverages to come. Tritton surround sound headphones/sets, Brink from Bethesda, couple of games from Playlogic as well as from Paradox, GameOn hardware furnitures for gamers, and our surprise of the E3 2009, Bayonetta. And everything in-between. So stay close!

One game I haven’t had a chance to discuss yet is WET, centered on a blade-wielding, gun-toting, wall-running, frequently-acrobatic “problem fixer” named Rubi Malone. Now, Rubi hasn’t exactly had an easy time of things. She gets crossed, double-crossed, and then some, until the only thing keeping her safe is her own weapon-filled hands and sprinting [...]

This is probably one of the worst time for us to change our layout, since so many more E3 posts are being written by our editors. But somehow the current layout is breaking and it’s shifting faster than Michael Jackson’s face. We gotta spank it and then some for the new layout so even if you [...]

While there were many announcements Nintendo didn’t quite provide us with at E3 (Zelda for Wii, anyone?) they certainly came through on another major first-party front: Mario. Mario vs Donkey Kong, Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story, Super Mario Galaxy 2, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, etc. It is the latter that I myself had [...]

While I may not fully agree with the recent “casual games” terminology that has emerged as of late, I do acknowledge the fact that there are some games with widespread, general appeal. I am here to tell you that Droplitz is one such game. While it was merely one of many games available for hands-on [...]

When we received a showcase invitation from Phantom EFX, a highly successful online casino game publisher, it struck me as odd. I knew them only as focusing on online casino game publishing, with two of their games placing in the “Top 10 Sellers of the Year” in the PC gaming category in both 2006 and [...]

Kingdom Hearts as a series came about from the most unlikely of alliances, and it continues to head in unexpected directions to this day. I have to admit that I had serious doubts about the series moving to the DS–Chain of Memories on the GBA set out to be something different from the very beginning, [...]

Another action-packed day at the Los Angeles Convention Center! We have a ton to write about, which we’re chomping at the bit to discuss as soon as time allows. Some things to look forward to: – WET (Slick female protagonist takes on scores of enemies with blade and bullets alike) – Brink (Smoothest drop-in/out I’ve [...]

Time travel may be a plot device we’ve seen before, but Darkest of Days puts a great spin on it by encouraging players to take advantage of and enjoy the anachronisms it produces. Change the tide of history with a little help from future technology? Sign me up! Purposely stick with an older weapon for [...]

So, we’ve just gotten our first look at Rock Band Beatles, and we’re solidly impressed. Beyond the fun of unreleased tracks and a new Rock Band built from the ground up, it’s clear that they have gone out of their way to make this game one everyone can enjoy. Things to look forward to: – [...]
