Build-your-own-nightmare

360 Feature | Chromehounds

While fiddling around during our hands-on time with Chromehounds, we discovered a few tricks of the trade we'd like to clue you in on so that you'll be fully prepared to slap together a brutal robot of ultimate destruction. We've compiled our little handbook of how-to horror, and to seal the deal we captured video of the building process (sped up for the sake of time) along with our titanium terrors in action on the battlefield. So drink deep from our well of kill-bot carnage knowledge. You ...

The dating game

PC Feature | City of Heroes

Find cow? Fund cave? Food core? We all sat round trying to work out what was written next to my name on the office whiteboard, my task for the week. Wait, I remember: ‘Find love’. That’s it. I have to find love in a videogame. This actually makes sense. ...

Above the Law - City of Heroes

PC Feature | City of Heroes

All the other games represented here are based on existing comic heroes (and Marvel ones, at that) - but only City of Heroes lets you make your own. A good deal of the fun in this massively multiplayer RPG comes from creating your own superhero, choosing from hundreds of various costume parts, accessories, and body types. Robotic arms, rotting zombie flesh, tattered kung-fu outfit, permanent goofy good-guy grin - put them all on one hideous character if you like. Design your outfit, create your ...

CivCity: Rome Q&A

PC Feature | CivCity: Rome

Tuesday 11 July 2006 It's unusual for two developers to work together and combine their creative clout on a single project, but that's exactly the story behind CivCity: Rome. A collaborative effort between Firefly Studios - the people responsible for the Stronghold series - and Civilization makers, Firaxis Games, CivCity: Rome promises to add an extra layer of depth to the city builder formula by employing elements influenced by Firaxis' perennially popular empire builder. To find out more ...

CIVilized conversation with Soren Johnson

PC Feature | Civilization IV

Soren Johnson is best known for his work at Firaxis, where he’s been deeply involved in the Civilization series since its third incarnation.

Clive Barker's Jericho

PC Feature | Clive Barker's Jericho

Are you sitting down? Good. Oh, and its best that youre not eating anything prior, during and directly after reading our coverage of Clive Barkers Jericho, a squad-based shooter that is as creepy and disgusting as it is intriguing. Mr. Barker has already made waves with his fantastical and horrific writings and surely if youve played his previous game, Undying, then you know that the man can offer up quite a virtual scare. That all said, check out our in-depth preview of Jericho and our ...

Prince of Darkness

PC Feature | Clive Barker's Jericho

Sadomasochistic cenobites, cannibalism, hooks in flesh, skin-stealing…“Weve got sights to show you,” grinned Pinhead in seminal horror flick Hellraiser - and didnt he just? However, Clive Barker himself has shown us so much more - in his books, his films, his soft toy range and in his games. Well, in Clive Barkers Undying anyway - the others havent been very good. But now hes back with Clive Barkers Jericho, a project hes steering all the way from conception - rather than ...

Exclusive interview: Cold Winter

PS2 Feature | Cold Winter

Cold Winter is the latest in a long line of games to make a run for the, as yet unclaimed, 'best PS2 FPS' crown - a prize that has sat sparkling and tragically dormant for years. Akin to Sleeping Beauty, slumbering in her castle and awaiting that essential kiss from a handsome prince, PS2's FPS-delivering abilities are still in repose, awaiting their own princely offering to finally arrive and awaken PS2's potential. Could Cold Winter be it? As Cold Winter gallops ever nearer to its release, ...

Kane's Wrath: The FMVs

PC Feature | Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath

A quality computer game has many important prerequisites: great gameplay, a terrific story, really immersive atmosphere, etc. The Command and Conquer games are superb RTS experiences but remain relatively unique among other modern games in that they put a lot of effort into their full motion videos, or FMVs. A good game tells a story, but a great game immerses you in its cinematic presentation. But how do these live-action cut scenes hold up ...
