Disabled but deadly: Gaming’s physically challenged killers (Killer 7)

11/08/2009

In a medium full of perfect teeth, washboard stomachs and breasts that have their own gravitational pull, it’s rare to see characters with disabilities.

Zero to 100: Videogames by the numbers (Killer 7)

31/03/2009

Sintendo: The evil side of kiddy gaming (Killer 7)

13/06/2008

Troublesome cameras, rotten language and bare breasts: not things you’d normally associate with a Nintendo game. Okay, some of these occur in third-party titles, but the important fact is that each one carries the Original Nintendo Seal of Quality. And that means Nintendo approved them all. Not so bad for a company famous for its censorship back in the early nineties, huh? So the next time somebody pokes fun at Nintendo for being ...

The eccentric games developer and Grasshopper Manufacture CEO Goichi ‘Suda51’ Suda has found fame for his last two big-name games - No More Heroes and Killer 7 - but as a producer, he’s got a list of innovative hits as long as an elephant’s nasal spray.

59 levels to play before you die: G - L (Killer 7)

21/03/2008

Legions of exasperated gamers whined that Kratos' escape from the bowels of Hell - complete with rotating columns of bladey cartilage, platforms of bone and two huge towers of spinning blades - was 'stupid', 'cheap' or 'toohardIwantmymummy!' but we loved it. ...

The Top 7... Assassins (Killer 7)

6/02/2008

On some level, roughly 95 percent of games have always been about assassination: go to point A and kill prominent entity B, fighting your way through goons C through Z to get there. Most games tend to come up with a morally justifiable pretext for all the violence, but more and more, we're seeing games that drop the act and let you be what you've secretly known yourself to be all along: a remorseless killing machine bent on destroying your targets. ...

10 reasons why Killer 7 will melt your brain (Killer 7)

27/03/2007

At one time, the curiously-titled Killer 7 was a hot property in the video game world. New trailers created either curiosity or excitement in gamers and journalists wondered loudly whether we were about to see the worlds first post-modern game, one that would infuse life in the shooter genre and exist purely as “art” because of its bizarre cel-shaded graphics. Maybe they wondered a little too loudly ‘cause once the game hit retail, the review scores were low - mainly due to ...

The longest game names of all time (King Kong)

15/01/2009

There are two editorial gold mines in the videogame-list business. The first is box art, because laughing at other people’s hard work gone awry is fantastically easy. Right behind those myriad articles about game packaging are lists devoted to poking fun at their very names – and we’re not afraid to go back to the well for another bit of fun. ...

The Top 7... movie games that don't suck (King Kong)

12/02/2007

By now, you know the spiel: most Hollywood executives see movie-based games as nothing more than merchandising, no different from action figures and themed socks. Therefore, they could not give a rat's ass about quality, so long as the game sells. And therefore, most movie games are crap. And blah, blah, blah. We're not here to debate the reasons why 95% of movie games are miserable turds. We like to focus on the positive. And we know that for every 20 or so Rambos or E.T.s or Enter the ...
