The ones who live where others die (survivalware)

You know those few games that are still around after such a long time that they just became a part of the industry. They’ve been around for so long, over timespans in which other games got shut down, cancelled, developers went ba...

 
 
 

One beast to consume us all (the mainstream)

I wasn’t planning on writing anything today but then I heard this cover of a song that I like and it gave me the inspiration I needed. Today’s blog is about the mainstream and how it’s a threat to our beloved communit...

 
 
 

Hopes and dreams: Total war Warhammer

For those confused, I’m just going to do the same thing as for mirror’s edge and take a look at the things known about this hopefully lovely game, and also the things I want and don’t want. So why the this title inste...

 
 
 

What we know: Mirror’s edge 2

So the few people among you we read my stuff will know that I’m tremendously excited for mirror’s edge catalyst. I’ve been trying to temper this enthusiasm a bit, and the best way I’ve found for this is just to ...

 
 
 

Beta impressions: DOOM

Yes today I finally get to talk doom. Some server issues prevented me from playing yesterday, but today I finally was able to get my ass kicked online, and got it kicked I have. So is worth getting hyped for the release or should you p...

 
 
 

Let’s close the gate FOREVER

So I got some actual news to report today, a nice little story about how an anonymous group of people try to ruin other people’s lives out of a false sense of justice. Yes this is about Gamer Gate, and no I don’t have a sin...

 
 
 

fear of the dark

So some of you may have heard a bad ass classic metal soundtrack by reading this title. If that’s the case, hallo metal bother/sister, others may think of some scary childhood memory, or a freakishly scary game So although I really w...

 
 
 

relating to a Digital Suicide

So today I read something that got me thinking about the Romine brothers, and yes I’m going to talk about them again. But I’m going to try something different and try to relate to them. I’m going to try and see these events from their...

 
 
 

Hopes and dreams for e3

So e3 closing in again, and since I’m nothing more than an uninspired husk right now, that is what I’m going to talk about. So without further ado these are my uneducated hopes and expectations for e3 2016. battlefield 5 It ...

 
 
 

a crowdfund for disaster

So today I just had to talk about the lawsuit of Digital Homicide vs Jim Sterling. You’ll notice that I’m trying to remain as objective as possible, as I’ve given the Romine brothers the chance to respond to this article before publis...

 
 
 

the transformation of work

So I was re-listening the interview between Jim Sterling and Digital Homicide as I still think it’s hilarious, but it also got me thinking. Mainly about, are we really susceptible to copyright take downs when we make blog post, reviews, l...

 
 
 

the story of an fps

When people ask me what games I like to play, I always reply with FPS. Oh, so like Call of Duty? Nope,… Halo? Nah. Battlefield? Meh,… and then just smile when you see the confusion in their eyes. The games that I love, are an ...

 
 
 

Indie: and the lesser of two evils

Let�s all gather around to fire, burn some marshmallows and get comfortable as I tell you a story. Picture this, you are a game developer, young, ambitious, you just released your first game. The overall reception is great, things are reall...

 
 
 

Why I pass on the divisions season pass

So The division has a season pass, because of course it does, well do we get anything else, you ask? Well apparently a good chance of micro transactions. So let’s all take a moment to thank Ubisoft for the extra “options” they provide...

 
 
 

The sceptics will save the world

It is becoming more and more apparent lately that gamers are somewhat done trusting developers. You can see this in outrage over micro transactions, take pay day 2 as an example, drops in pre-orders as stated by Activision back in 2014, the...

 
 
 

What’s hot right now

By now we all played “super hot” or pretend we did, and we’ve all jumped on the bandwagon praising it to high heaven, and loving every second of it. But now,… I’m going to do the same thing. Why? For the attention bruh! But s...

 
 
 

The limbs we can(t) live without

The limbs we can live without So currently I’m studying game design Belgium, and while progressing through the year I’ve started to realise why a lot of games on steam look and feel like they were designed for the playstation2, so we'r...

 
 
 

Where do we go when we’re all capped out?

The question that games with levelling systems have always been asking themselves, has always been, when does it stop?. When has a player progressed for enough to become “capped”? Different games have come up with different creative&nbs...

 
 
 

About half life 3 and why we don’t need it

Let me stop you there, you were just thinking about how I just started writing and I’m already wining about half life 3, right? No? Oh,… well this is awkward, okay, just carry on then, I guess. So half life 3, the unicorn holy g...

 
 
 

Suicidal Innovation

This is a topic that I’ve been wanting to talk about for a while. Although I’m pretty new on both this site and the whole blogging experience, I’ve been talking about this to anyone willing or unwilling to listen to me rambling a...

 
 
 

the end of an eternal crusade?

Not too long ago Warhammer’s new IP “eternal crusade” finally made it’s steam debut on early access. Nothing special about it, aside of the games origin story. You see, “Warhammer 40 K: dark millennium” as it would ha...

 
 
 

remembering the fallen

Today I kind of felt like taking a look at games that are either no longer available to us, or burned in the eternal pits of development hell, either way corporate is the blame. So I did some digging, revisited some games, played some games...

 
 
 

To late for ninja's?

It’s a year like any other, a new assassin’s creed game came along, people played it, people forget about it, people moved on. That is the state this once great and inventive franchise is currently in. How in the world could a franchise...

 
 
 

EA don't hurth me, don't hurth me, no more

Okay let’s get straight to the point today, I love DICE as a development studio, I’m constantly impressed with their products and the talent the runs in the studio. It’s a shame though that their publisher doesn’t see them in the sa...
