Dec 20, 2007 Another year, another collection of meaningless awards for games you already knew were good. So, instead of desperately waiting for other people to re-affirm opinions you already had, why not read a whole choking list of awards that celebrate 2007 in a slightly different way? Last year's Potentially Annual Platinum Chalice awards were met with such deafening acclaim (you saw the parade, right?) that we simply had to follow through and make them a grand, yearly tradition like ...

Dec 17, 2007 The funny thing about the freedom of speech is that everyones for it until they see something that rubs them the wrong way. Take these Top 7 Most Evil Games for instance. We wish these games didnt exist. But if we want developers to have the freedom to make the games we actually want to play without having to worry about censorship fettering creativity, there needs to be a place for the ones we wouldnt touch with a ten foot pole too. What you're about to see are the most vile, ...

Dec 14, 2007 It's fair to say that we direct all our technology into two things: boobs and bombs. Video games have exploited the latter from the moment they first appeared, so it comes as no surprise that violence has become more and more intense as gaming tech improves. So, if the bombs have gotten bigger, what about the boobs? Join us as we dive into the dreadful beginnings of women in games, then stroll through their gradual evolution from sex trophies to sex trophies with giant guns and ...

Dec 14, 2007 95% of videogame characters are little more than background noise. They talk, blink, maybe wave their arms around a bit while yelling at you about 'keys', 'objectives' and 'friendly fire'. But sometimes you run into characters that stand out like explosions in the night sky against the cardboard cut-outs that inhabit the majority of games. These are the characters you actually care about. Now we're not likely to confess our feelings for a polygonal personality to random people on ...

Dec 13, 2007 Everyone hates a dull holiday party. So, after a very scientific survey involving people raising their hands as we shouted out questions, we've determined that there are two main causes for sucky year-end get togethers.
