Jul 2, 2008

During our recent visit to Treyarch’s LA studio, we had the opportunity see a demo of the upcoming 007: Quantum of Solace game and to interview Garrett Young, the Executive Producer. Aside from various details about the game, he also revealed that Daniel Craig is a gamer and likes to play Guitar Hero in his trailer on set. For the whole story on Quantum of Solace and Craig’s leet gaming skills, have a listen to our interview. But ...

Quantum of Solace (007: Quantum of Solace)

Jun 4, 2008

We last saw him in Casino Royale staring down the barrel of a gun at terrorist kingpin Mr White, shortly after shooting him in the leg - and the next film's going to kick off with Bond interrogating the murdering scumbag at MI6. The game, meanwhile, straddles both films - the developers have been to the sets of both, taking hundreds of reference photos since early in Casino's production - although because of security restrictions around Solace, most of the levels we've seen are from Casino Royale. ...

Friday 21 April 2006 If you're reading this on the same day we publish this article then it's 48 days until the World Cup kicks off. 48 days! That's only 1,152 hours, and if you sleep for eight hours a night, only 768 waking hours!

Mar 30, 2006

You wouldnt be remiss to consider EA Sports latest soccer game a quick sequel to the annual chart-topper, FIFA Soccer. No doubt the publisher wants to cash in on its massive investment in the worlds biggest sporting event. Curiously though, this games producer goes to great lengths to pitch 2006 FIFA World Cup as a sequel to the 2002 World Cup iteration, and not the recent FIFA Soccer 06. This matters why? Mainly because FIFA Soccer 06 was generally considered to be pretty stinky, particularly ...

Would that we were encamped in lovely downtown Barcelona, basking in the glory of Microsoft's X06 event and soaking up that Spanish sun, but alas, we're not. However, that can't stop us from letting you know a few things that are being rolled out there, including this one available from Xbox 360 Live Arcade, 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventure. Behold the revival of Sierra Online's 3D Ultra Minigolf series, first launched for PC waaay back in 1997. The original was little more that a set of staid, ...

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand (50 Cent: Blood on the Sand )

Apr 1, 2008

10 minutes into being shown 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand by developer Swordfish Studios (who thankfully had nothing to do with the terrible Bulletproof) we got the strangest feeling that this self-proclaimed 'long awaited' sequel might actually be, well, a pretty decent arcade shooter. ...
