My Website is finally Live!
350 days 1 hour ago | by: Figboy
Just giving a heads up to interested parties that my website is now currently live! Select/Start Games is now ready to roll!
It's been a dream of mine for a long time to have a place where I could voice my opinion on the gaming industry freely, but lately, I've also had a desire to try and cover the gaming industry in as objective a way as I'm humanly possible. I think objectivity in the g...

Sony Failing It's Fans?
351 days 6 hours ago | by: tuneraider
Despite being the launch day of Sony's long awaited, oft delayed online social marketing networking service, this PS3 owner is finding himself increasingly disgrunted by Sony's seeming indifference to Microsoft's superior exclusive disc-based DLC. Having owned nearly every major console since Sony's first Playstation, I consider myself a dedicated gamer. The only reasons I haven'...

Gaming is Dying
352 days 1 hour ago | by: smurfie4
I miss those days when an 85% average was still considered to be good
for a game to have. Now anything below a 90% is declared a flop. I miss
those days when a game that sold a million copies was considered a
success. Now if it doesn't sell 1 million on day 1 it is considered a
failure. People are falling victim to popularity as the Wii refuses to stay on store shelves. I have no prob...

Generation 7. The death of the gamer
352 days 3 hours ago | by: PS360WII
One has to stop and look at the average gamer to see that we are no longer in a world of enjoyment and playful spirits but are in an age of spitefulness and critics. Nothing is up to par and everything has a fault, not to mention everything should be on the one console the owner has. Although if a game is exclusive to a system the gamer has it is by default the only true game that h...

Nudity in video games from a gamergirl perspective
352 days 16 hours ago | by: MIA
Video games have always been linked to crime and violence, profanity, social development, addiction and my personal favorite sex.
We all know that sex sells. Sex is everywhere, its part of our lives. There is plenty of sex even in Disney films, yes you heard it. If you don't believe it, go watch your Disney movies and then come back and finish this article.
Nudity and sex seem to...

LittleBigFailure? Maybe not
352 days 16 hours ago | by: Covenant
Early indications are that one of Sony's AAA titles for the PS3 this fall, the much anticipated LittleBigPlanet, has performed rather poorly at retail so far. Websites and blogs have been ablaze with the news that the title barely moved 200K units at launch.
Couple that with the game's delayed launch (due to allegedly offensive content in one song) and lack of significant publicity, and y...

A Glimpse Inside Sony's Gamer Advisory Panel... Topic: Ideas for home.
353 days 6 hours ago | by: pixelsword
Note:
-This post was basically written by pixelsword minus the adjustments for critical responses,
-The NDA for home has been lifted
-This post isn't a "spoiler" on home. There is no idea if any of these ideas have been implemented, this is just a post written about a year ago, give or take, except for the "Qoin" concept, which was written a little over a month ago on the home ...

The Similarities Between Voodoo Vince and Sackboy
353 days 7 hours ago | by: Jenzo
There's probably not too many of you who have played, or remember a character named Voodoo Vince; the star of an original Xbox platform game developed by Beep Industries that was published by Microsoft Game Studios back in September, 2003. Microsoft was in desperate need to find a mascot for the Xbox that could rival the likes of Mario, Sonic and Crash Bandicoot.
They had already trie...

KZ2's aiming is horrible... and a BIG PROBLEM
354 days 6 hours ago | by: orakga
[Disclaimer: I am not a 360 fanboy. I recently hit level 5 on my PSN account, and most of my gaming time is spent on the PS3. The references I make to Halo are merely for comparison, and I want people to recognize that the Halo series does deserve genuine credit for the feature I refer to in this article (i.e. the aiming system)]

Two days ago i purchased 3 new games for PS3, Uncharted, Resistance 2, and LBP. I am only interested in Uncharted, while my younger bro will play R2 and LBP.

To all N4G Contributors
361 days 1 hour ago | by: LinuxGuru
I am sick and tired of N4G contributors who constantly (deliberately) find and post "news" articles pertaining to the imminent downfall of either the PS3 or the 360.
Grow the hell up, open your damned eyes, and take a big swig of reality.
Neither system is going A N Y W H E R E.
PLEASE ignore these cheap-o hits-garnering stories, and try to do some self-censoring...try your best...

Top 20 Game Franchises That Need To Be Remade, Redone, or made Return
361 days 4 hours ago | by: mrnintendo96
Here is my list of all the franchises that must return to the gaming scene. These games need to be redone, remade, or revisited by developers.
20. Rad Racer: Rad Racer should be redone. This would be a new oppurtunity for Square Enix to do something not JRPG related. This would be fun on all 3 systems and with online play and realistic crashes.
19. Strider : A 3D strider that would...

Timed Exclusives: The Good, The Bad, and The Future.
361 days 7 hours ago | by: Deep Obsidian
In this generation we have seen our fair share of Timed Exclusives. These seem to be the next if not the third biggest thing when it comes to exclusives these days with exclusive DLC edging out timed exclusives for that 2nd place. The questions that have always floated around in my head are if they are good for those holding the short end of the stick, the answer to that is yes and no. I am goi...

GTA IV DLC not so exclusive?
365 days 14 hours ago | by: andron666
I received the latest issue of PSM3 in the post yesterday. They have a column called The Insider. As the title suggests he's an industry insider who writes about yet to be announced and rumored new games.
The column ends on a rather interesting hint. Here the full quote:
"Following Sony UK boss Ray Maguire's claim that 'nothing is ever exclusive' about Xbox 360 DLC , we'd suggest read...
