No Babes Week would be complete without a look back at the ladies of 007. James Bond is the original womanizer, using his debonair good looks to charm his way into the pants of slinky double agents or bored (and possibly kidnapped) heiresses. We’ll take a look at how the girls have evolved over time, comparing their appearances across game titles and hardware generations. We’ll also evaluate the videogame versions against the
Last month, we selected the seven best games of the year (so far) and, although only halfway through 2011, the competition was already intense. Many outstanding titles had to be cut and many editors’ feelings had to be hurt.
But that was the easy part. Now comes the true torture – the week in which I reluctantly delve into the dank, dark sewer that is the bottom of Metacritic’s review rankings to bring you the extreme opposite end of the spectrum. For every Portal, there’s a Party Megamix. For every Zelda, a Thor. These are their shameful stories...
Swear words are used in film, TV and games to glorious effect. But sometimes the sheer quantity of obscenity causes the words to lose their meaning. Ever the cultural explorers here at GR, we’ve compiled a list of the ten swearing-est games we could think of. Then we grabbed footage from the first hour of each, and chopped it down to just the dirty words. Very scientific.
Check it out. But remember: this video is categorically
The World Cup is almost upon us and what better way to celebrate the planet’s greatest sporting event than buying EA’s brilliant new FIFA game? World Cup 2010 is a significant step up from FIFA 10, and differs in some key areas.
So if you want to lift the coveted pot on your PS3 or 360 we’ve got all the tips you must know. From shooting, passing, choosing the right teams to winning the World Cup and new Story of Qualifying mode, we’ve got you covered for your footie guide fix.
Football is all about scoring. Actually, screw that. Football is all about rubbing the other team's noses in it when you slam one in their net. And there's no better game for being a showboating SOB than EA's upcoming FIFA World Cup game. Below you'll find some of the funniest and downright stupid ways to celebrate goals in the game, which range from dancing, doing a Cantona, to faking a stroke.
Remember there's no such thing as being
Gaming technology has come on so far in the short thirty years since Space Invaders and Pac-Man. But what if it hadn't? What if, say, Nintendo's first black and green-screened Game Boy was the only console that had ever existed?
A terrifying thought, indeed. But we reckon our favourite games would probably look something like this:
Being the internet connoisseurs that we are, we stumbled upon a highly amusing article that pondered the deadly serious question of what superheroes would do if they were assholes. After we’d successfully boarded the roflcopter, we knocked up our own version starring game heroes abusing their skills. So if you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Solid Snake used his powers of super sneakery for evil, you’ve come to the right place…
England, eh? The source of so much joy but so much more heartache. Having struggled through their group stage so far with two disappointing draws (although I'm sure our US comrades would disagree), it all comes down to this afternoon's game against Slovenia.
