I remember the first time I saw Duke Nukem Forever, which was about a year ago. Surprise was the only word I could use to sum up my feelings. This legendary piece of vaporware existed? It was playable and funny and self-aware too? Man, if it could come back from the edge of oblivion, then [...]
Uncorking one of the better kept secrets of recent months, the publisher of BioShock and NBA 2K11 announced today that they’ll be releasing a sequel to The Darkness, a 2007 FPS inspired by the Image/Top Cow comic of the same name.
If you couldn’t get to a Best Buy store to get the exclusive 3D retail version of NBA 2K11 relax: 2K Games announced on the Playstation Blog they are releasing a 3D Stereoscopic update for PS3 gamers.
You know what pain is? Pain is having to wait TWO WHOLE YEARS for a game you want in your hands now. In this case, that game is Bioshock Infinite, which marks the return of Ken Levine and the Irrational Games studio to the franchise they created in 2007.
Ambition doesn’t make a good game. Great production values do not make a good game. Not by themselves they don’t. It seems like a continually hard lesson to learn as console cycles roll into one another throughout the decades. Mafia II‘s the latest high-profile game to trip over this fallacy.

Just after midnight, 2K announced that the folks behind BioShock 2, 2K Marin, are currently developing a “re-imagining” of the storied XCOM franchise. For those that don’t remember, the XCOM franchise was a hit in the mid to late 90s and 2K acquired the rights from Atari in 2005. When it was announced that Ken [...]

Once again we’re transported back to Rapture, but 10 years after the events that transpired in the first “BioShock” story and we find ourselves trampling through the underwater city as a Big Daddy. I won’t give away any of the story or plot lines because without them, “BioShock 2” is more or less the same [...]
Can’t wait for BioShock 2 to come out (February 9th), and have nothing but time to think about it?
