Crysis was an epic game, and whether you loved or loathed it, for many years it became a ' benchmark' for PC gaming, and opened many debates along the lines of 'yes,but how well can you run Crysis?'. I liked the original - it was fun, it was entertaining, and with the ludicrous hardware demand it became a personal goal of mine to get it running well at high settings on my 1080p plasma TV. The foll... more.

First off let's take a look at a statement Brad Wardell made: "e could have become a retailer and tried to compete in t... more.

Rumors have been circulating over the last few days about a follow-up to the forgettable Tony Hawk: Shred. Being Kitguru’s we decided to investigate a bit, and check a few sources regarding this. What we found, ultimately, was a statement from Tony Hawk himself in an interview conducted by PixelatedGeek: "We're going to do something probably for next year but I can't give too much away." ... more.

Music for video games is finally being recognized by the Recording Academy. The next Grammy Awards will feature a category called "Visual Media”.

Shift was a classic title, I played it for months. For me this is a big deal as I find most racing games about as appealing as putting my hand in a blender. Shift 2 is a great game, which I had a blast reviewing over the last week. Electronic Arts have clearly placed a lot of time and effort into developing the new title, and trying to find a niche market which isn't directly competing against ... more.

I loved Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War II, but sadly I have to admit that the game frequently kicked my ass. The bosses were extremely difficult and I died more often than I would care to admit. It looks however as if the designers Relic have made the latest expansion 'Retribution' slightly more approachable for those people, like myself, without cyborg implants. Those who have already played Da... more.
