Visit Paris, Hawaii, and the Moon
GC News | Gamecube
Sometimes planning a vacation feels like too much work. Even if you manage to score enough time off, finagle a passport and find affordable deals for your flight and lodgings, theres still a good chance that youll get screwed by delays, lost luggage, overbooked rooms and locals with a powerful disdain for your loud Hawaiian shirts. While nothing can replace the thrill of visiting famous sites and learning about them via overpriced headset tour guides, weve noticed that some games have done an ...

The Top 7... Damsels You DON'T Want to Save
GC News | Spider-man The Movie
You know the formula. A pure-hearted beauty falls into the evil grasp of some snarling, spitting, mustache-twirling megalomaniac. A noble hero, driven by honor, courage and - let's face it - hormones, rushes to her aid. A brief kiss ensues and, before you can say sequel, the hapless lady has stumbled into imminent danger all over again. Tale as old as time... classic "damsel in distress." Except sometimes, the damsel isn't worth the damn trouble. ...

Experimental narrative structures in games
GC News | Gamecube
Note: This article is intentionally magniloquent and bombastic. Read it at the risk of becoming irritated and rebutting it in a forum, blog, or on Digg. What is a first-person game? Third-person? Most can easily identify these terms as referring to a games “camera” and how it relates to the virtual physical space of the game world. Also utilized are omnipresent viewpoints (strategy games), and the somewhat outdated second-person (text adventures). In literary terms, however, the ...

8 officially licensed WTF?! products
GC News | Gamecube
Its natural for videogame companies to get a little marketing-happy. Hell, if we had a popular franchise, wed whore it out as much as we could too. (By the way, make sure to check out GamesRadar for all your gaming-related needs!) Anyway, weve stumbled upon so much dreadful, officially licensed merchandise over the years, we couldnt help but laugh at how poorly they portrayed the games they were based on. Get ready to bask your eyes in the most confusing products that ever marketed a ...

The Top 7... impractical characters
GC News | Gamecube
What do Solid Snake, Lara Croft and Samus Aran all have in common? They dress for success. Their own costume, be it custom-built spacesuit or bottomless backpack, is directly related to their adventuresome profession. No matter the situation, these heroes are loaded with gadgets, training and expertise that'll see them through to the end. But not all game characters are created equal. A great many appear to have no practical application other than "the boss says this guy stays in the game." ...

Marathon Zelda Gamers at it Again N4G
GC News from N4G | Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
GC - Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Marathon Zelda Gamers at it Again You may remember last weekend when Kotaku posted about the guys at cameronbanga.com who tried to make it through four Zelda games in 48 hours. Due to some glitches, they weren't able to squeeze in all four games but still managed to raise over $1200 for Penny Arcade's Child's Play charity. So, in an attempt to make up what they couldn't finish, the boys are at it again but this time they have given themselves eleven hours to complete Twilight Princess. The marathon gaming session will again benefit Child's Play and will be the first in a series of charity driven weekend gaming sessions.

Gears of War 2: Summer 2008?
GC News | Gamecube
Jan 17, 2008 Each and every New Year, members of the gaming press begin tripping over themselves in hopes of predicting the big things in the coming dozen. Be it right, wrong, vague or obvious - you're sick of reading them, we're sick of reading them. So in one fell swoop, GamesRadar has told every other aspiring '08 Nostradamus to suck it long, and suck it hard: We got psychics. Ignoring the tired tradition of basing predictions on facts, intuition or consulting with experts, we went to ...

Its like nothing you will ever see on Xbox ...
