PC Preview | Dragon Age: Origins
For years, RPGs had to rely on text to communicate their stories, dialogue and scenes. Technological advances created new avenues - we started seeing expressions, hearing voices, understanding how characters felt without being told "Bob is angry!" But it's never reached the level of sophistication we've grown used to in other media. Where are the pregnant pauses, the glowering looks, the terrified faces and the cheeky grins that would give our heroes and villains true depth? BioWare ...

In the dense market of free MMOs coming to the US from Korea, we wouldn’t blame someone for feeling a little lost. But of this year’s upcoming MMOs, Dungeon Fighter Online, which overlooks the prominent RPG genre, and instead plays like a beat ‘em up of old, only in dungeons instead of the seedy streets of New York. ...

PC - Dungeon Hero - Dungeon Hero

Firefly Studios don’t seem overly keen on the word “dungeon”. If the title isn’t being partially obscured by an arc of blood, or fading into cavernous darkness, or harangued out of a URL through repetition (heroherohero.com), it’s being contradicted by the game’s setting, which isn’t dungeon-based. ...

PC Preview | Dungeon Hero
PC - Dungeon Hero - Dungeon Hero - updated impressions Don’t let the title fool you; according to the guys from Firefly Studios, the lead character of Dungeon Hero is actually a bit of an asshole. But apparently he’s just the right asshole for the job that a race of goblins needs getting’ done. Actually, both words in the seemingly generic title are tinged with irony, as your psychopathic protagonist doesn't hack through a boxy brown cavern filled with evaporating skeletons that ...

PC Preview | Dungeon Hero
Aug 23, 2007 Fantasy often has a few holes in it. Take Mordor's representation at the close of the cinematic Rings jaunt - a dusty, arid surface with a bunch of orcs just standing around shouting at each other. Where was the infrastructure? Where did the green-skins do their shopping? Where were the basic sanitation facilities? Great as Peter Jackson's vision was, it's doubtful he'd ever get a job as a town planner. The same is true of your average dungeon: who, honestly, leaves a big chest ...

PC Preview | Dungeon Siege II: Broken World
We have some good news and some bad news for Dungeon Siege fans. First, the good news: the action role-player will be even hackier and slashier, thanks to the Broken World expansion pack due out this summer. But fans may want to get their fill before much-maligned director Uwe Boll gets hold of the franchise and releases two movies based on DS this year. That part was most definitely the bad news. This expansion will offer players about 10 more hours of dungeon-crawling in a search to set ...
