Let’s discuss. 1) Would this make sense story wise? My issue with Nathan Drake is that he is a sociopath. …

I wish I was talented ;______; Also, I love the Skyrim theme, but I can never get Harry Partidge’s lyrics out of my head when I hear the main part.

Also, with the new year just around the corner, we’re probably going to be taking another short break, this time, just for the weekend. But short breaks just mean one thing: tons of extra credit!So this first …

Perhaps you guys haven’t heard about this yet. Perhaps you don’t care. What does matter is that I do care and you all need to pay serious attention to it because I say so. Yeah, that’s right. Total War is finally going industrial. I frakking love the Industrial Era. I don’t know why. Something about …

So recently Star Wars: The Old Republic released, and it was a hit among everyone here at VGO. However, once I booted up the game and finished installing the updates on release day, I was intrigued to see how similar the game was to another MMO Superstar, World of Warcraft. It’s not that the games are like …

That’s it, I’ve had it. Don’t care if the zombie craze is still alive and thumping, to me its novelty is growing old and wore out. And why is that? Over the years, we have seen different iterations of the zombie mob. Whether they are slow in pace or fast runners, all zombies do one …

From a purely technical perspective, current games are capable of a greater level of fidelity to real life than ever before. Advanced graphics, sound and lighting engines are being used to render game worlds that are visually believable and dynamic. Take Grand Theft Auto 4’s Liberty City, a faithfully recreated east coast metropolis, complete with …

I know that everyone who plays video games have at one point said: “You know what would make this game better?” Those people have also at one point said: “I could make a better game!” or “what on Earth were they thinking?” If you’re one of these people, then perhaps you secretly (or overtly) want …

Well, today is Christmas and its also time for the weekly update. Of course, you’re probably going to be reading this sometime after Christmas so I hope yours was a good one. I also hope you got a lot of nice gifts. I myself got Skyrim, Uncharted 3, and Mario Kart 7, the latter two …

Don’t know what to say really other than this was made by Freddie Wong and is making me really want to play some more Battlefield 3.

Nintendo sure loves the term “ambassador”. I mean, I’m a 3DS ambassador so I got 20 free games. But I think these guys outrank me. Actually, I suppose the idea is pretty brilliant. Why pay for commercials when you can have the fans tell other people how awesome their products are. I know that I’ve …

The Spike TV Video Game Awards are dumb. One of the categories I hate the most is “character of the year”. Why? Mainly because I think that’s a completely useless award. It doesn’t matter that the Joker won the award, because Mark Hamill, who provided all the character into that role, didn’t win best male …
