Do YOU believe in the teapot?

Snooker finally comes to the Wii in WSC Real 09

Now you may be asking yourself, "What the f*ck is Snooker?" That's a valid question, and the answer is that I have no idea. If I had to guess I'd say it's a knockoff candy bar, although...
Murder, She Wrote gets a game ... I don't know why!

New Sacred 2 trailer involves skeleton face punching

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel demo available for PC: This game has skeletons in it!

[video]105137:427[/video]  As you might have been able to tell, there are certain games that I take on as pet causes, giving them coverage that may go above and beyond my usual duties. Most ...
Sacred 2: RPG + German Fantasy Metal = Something?

[video]105137:427[/video] This trailer for Sacred 2 is the most amazingly epic thing I've seen all day, and also the most tragic. It's not every day that you get to see an in-game music video for...

As you may have already gathered, I'm pretty bloody excited for Rise of the Argonauts, and this new video from Codemasters sheds further light on the interesting "deed" system that shou...

RetroforceGO! Episode 35: Anything but the Super Bowl

Seriously, why do they capitalize the word Super Bowl? I mean, if it's going to be a psuedo national holiday, then I at least want the following Monday off from work. And by the following Monday,...

New Golden Axe = Lair? Lack of playable dwarf = FAIL, at any rate

Final Fantasy Retrospective: a look back at the spooniest of bards

As you've probably gathered over the six months since Nick's last piece, today is a ridiculously slow day in the realm of gaming news. I've spent the entire day playing Virtua Fighter 5 Online ...

When Liquid Entertainment revealed its new action-RPG, Rise of the Argonauts, I almost wept rainbows, I was so happy. That was only because all I could think about were stop-motion skeletons and ...
