Cologne – Mixed martial arts (MMA) legend Wanderlei Silva was at Gamescom 2011, along with 250,000 gamers, to talk about THQ’s UFC Undisputed 3 and UFC Personal Trainer. Silva is a gamer. He’s also featured in the new Pride mode in the upcoming UFC video game. The Brazilian Ultimate Fighting Championship star talks about video games in this exclusive video interview.
KeenGamer: "UFC Undisputed 3 is still the best MMA game ever made. Why is it that a game with an outdated roster and PS3 graphics still holds a special place in the hearts of so many players? Let's take a look at the major differences between THQ and EA's approach to MMA gaming."
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.
Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
