Are you bored with your Wii, Xbox 360 or your PS3, and you want your video games to up the ante a bit? Why not try Zach Gage's Lose/Lose? You see, Lose/Lose is a game that plays like a traditional space shooter, but with a twist. Lose/Lose is a video-game with real life consequences. Each alien in the game is created based on a random file on the players computer. If the player kills the alien, the file it is based on is deleted. If the players ship is destroyed, the application itself is deleted. Although ...

Hello??? …..Are you there???? Hellooo…..

Some call them mobile phones others cellular phones or cell phones for short(geez.. four letters???!!!??), whatever you'd want to call them they're the best solution to our never ending need for communicating along with the lust for gizmos and gadgets. Analog phones started as mere telephones without wires that worked on closed networks with batteries as large as a suitcase. When it went digital, the magic began when Nokia unknowingly included a free service programmed within their phones called SMS or texting to some. People, the ever curious creatures we are, discovered this and went on texting sprees that topped calls these technological wonders were supposed to do....

Gun O’clock

Posted by Jim as Games

I gotta give it to the Japanese, they sure do know how to start the day right. Just look at Gun o' Clock. If you're waking up to a very annoying alarm clock every day, hey, shoot it. Seriously... shoot it! LOL! This is a special alarm clock that can only be silenced using a "play gun". So if you want to wake up as Indiana Jones or something from the Bad Boys... you need this clock dude. Works in 2 modes. The first one is the alarm mode where this clock will taunt you to a shootout at precisely the alarm time you've set it at. The second one is the time-attack mode where ...

Game Review: Sniper Elite

Posted by Jim as Games, Gaming, Gaming Features

For a month, this was what's bringing me back to the desk before I actually do the long zzzzz. Sniper Elite offers a lengthy single-player game full of nerve-wrecking episodes but still with the oh soooo cool rewarding moments. Gameplay on my first five tries were difficult, but after I got the controls bagged it became easy to do things, the winning moves, the carnage! :) It will take around 30-minutes to get used to the controls and starting at the rookie level is a must for a lengthier practice kill. What I just didn't like was how the mouse was so quick (sometimes too quick) for comfort. Graphics was awesome, detailed but not too distracting, focused yet ...

Posted by Jaren as Games, XBox 360

Microsoft made it official at GDC: Gears of War 2 is coming exclusively to Xbox 360 this November. This post from Wired that Gears of War 2 is coming this November 2008. Naturally, this got me excited as I loved Gears of war, and having found out that Gears of War storyline is kinda short as I keep on asking for more, anyways my wish has come true and is coming this November. Although I haven't looked in the details of the game, but if it's the continuing saga of the previous one. Heck I'm up for it. And I enjoyed the single player/co-op mode of the first one. I'm definitely ...

Children, Reading and Computer Games

Posted by Mr Butterscotch as Editorial, Games, Gaming Features, Random Thoughts

It was widely reported yesterday that the popularity of computer games are being blamed for a drop in the reading skills of primary school pupils, according to a new report. The Reading Literacy Study studies 45 countries in a variety of ways in order to come to some sort of understanding of the level of reading skills across the spectrum. England has moved down from 3rd in 2001 to 19th in 2006 – something which has shocked many, but not others, who feel that the education system in Britain is currently suffering – which is why there has been all manner of suggestions including keeping children in school until they are eighteen (for those who don’t know, you can ...

Bungie Leaving Microsoft

Posted by Jaren as Games, Gaming, Microsoft, PC, Random Thoughts, XBox 360

There's been rumors flying around, that Bungie makers of the Game Halo, is leaving Microsoft and is going to set out, to stake a claim in the gaming world to become independent company. An issued press release from Microsoft states that Bungie is about to to "embark on a path to become an independent company." Bungie, a company owned by Microsoft has been making loads of money and with the recent success of Halo 3, in my opinion they're well-equipped to be independent, Good for us gamers, we should expect the same kind of commitment and focus on the Xbox Platform and as well as opening up to other gaming platforms too. As Harold Ryan, studio head for Bungie said, ...
