I really, really enjoyed New Super Mario Brothers on the Wii. As a single player game, it played very much like SMB 3/World, which is, honestly, all I could ask for. Now if only someone could put together a Sonic the Hedgehog game that played like the side-scrolling platformers of the Genesis era, ...

Also, Bayonetta and Darksiders today! Rejoice! I did rejoice muchly (right after rejoicing my bothering to get a 360) and then I got my ass handed to me. Repeatedly. Three times by Fortitudo. And a million and one times by Grace and Glory. Bayonetta's absurdly powerful and all, but she's total glas...

Do you have a link for it? Googling 'The Void' is about as unproductive as googling 'tits' while looking for birds.

Also, Bayonetta and Darksiders today! Rejoice!

Am I missing something here? I have to start over every time - how would you be able to take your ship over regardless?

I'll have to disagree with both of you there. I played Borderlands single player from start to finish and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. It's pretty light on the RPG elements, it's true (you have your WoW-style loot, and you get to improve your talents every time you level up, but that's abo...

Last week the CS department set up a Console Gaming Night where I touched on Guitar Hero/Rock Band for the first time. Technically speaking it was the second time, but the first time was when a housemate was finished with his session in the living room and pushed the controller in my hands, which w...

I'm a big fan of Hunted Forever, so much so that I spent a week or so trying to make a similar game of my own.

How about we ban them both and solve everybodies problem!
Except theirs, I guess.

Not trying to derail this thread, but Jordy, if you don't stop being such an abusive twat, I'm going to ban you.
Congratulations, Feud.

That's Andy Bainbridge, the guy who worked on Darwinia originally along side Chris.

Work on Tactinomicon has crawled to a stop over the last 2 months as all of my coding juice has been poured into Darwinia+, but given that I had the entire bank holiday weekend free, I decided to do some work on it and thought I would share a couple of developments with the handful of people who mig...

Im actually thinking more along the lines of certain attacks doing damage as well as counting as a death blow - so the really powerful attacks will be able to out-right kill the target, assuming it drops them to the appropriate amount of health.

I do have a question though: Do the characters level up? Or is it going to use a system similar to Dungeon Siege were the characters level based on the skills they use? I'm asking because if feels a bit weird to be able to change a mage to a warrior on a whim. Characters will level up, yes. My curr...
