PC - Grim Fandango - The Best Videogame Stories Ever

Whoever said videogames have no cultural value needs a shot in the mouth - or they need to sit down with The Longest Journey, Metal Gear Solid or any of the other games on our list of Best Videogame Stories EVER. A good story isn’t necessary for a good game (Halo, Super Mario Galaxy or Tetris, anyone?) but that’s what makes the games on our list just that much more important. These are good games with amazing stories of epic ...

PC Feature | Guild Wars
Right now, players around the world are dancing... naked. Whether it's WoW, EverQuest, or Guild Wars, most MMOs show your character in their underwear after you remove all of their equipment. Combine a near nude avatar with an animated dance emote - commonly activated by typing "/dance" - and you have yourself a naked dancer. There's something about taking off all your clothes that's irresistible to many MMO players. Go into a major town in almost any game and you're bound to see a fair share ...

PC Feature | Guild Wars 2
Going from dark horse to multi-million seller, Guild Wars has been the Cinderella story of the MMO world, battling against the heavyweights of WoW and EverQuest II for supremacy - and holding its own. Art director Daniel Dociu certainly has got a lot to do with this success. Weve cornered him to find out more about how the look and styles of Guild Wars, and the new expansion pack Eye of the North, came about. All the while wondering where weve seen that face ...

PC Feature | Guild Wars 2
Guild Wars' heavily instanced-based nature and subscription-free model raised more than a few questioning eyebrows when the MMORPG was initially unveiled, but the game went on to prove itself and ArenaNet's design philosophy reap reward. Now the developer is expanding the Guild Wars horizon and is working on a sequel, and its foremost goal with Guild Wars 2, it says, is "to make it the ultimate Guild Wars for Guild Wars fans." We spoke to ArenaNet founder Jeff Strain and Guild Wars lead ...

PC Feature | Guild Wars: Eye of the North
The Guild Wars franchise has always succeeded in delivering content that appeals to a variety of players. Whether you like the occasional quest, running dungeons on Hard mode for epic loot, helping your guild rise the PvP ranks, or starting your own naked dance orgy in town, the series has always been able to deliver - minus the monthly fees. But while Guild Wars still looks great on the visual front when compared to World of Warcraft, its beginning to show subtle signs of aging. The more we ...

PC Feature | Guild Wars: Eye of the North
Labeled as the series' first "true expansion," Guild Wars Eye of the North marks the beginning of a new direction for the free-to-play MMO. Don't expect another tutorial starting zone or new professions to level up till 20. Unlike the last three stand-alone campaigns - Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall - Eye of the North has been designed from the ground up to cater to Guild Wars vets looking for higher level content to explore with their bank of characters instead of starting new ones from ...

Now that their creation is in the hands of another studio, who's to know which team brings the rock? For the answer, we turn to our custom-built comparison videos that split the screen right down the middle - Guitar Hero III on the left, Rock Band on the right. The two games ...
