-
Due to the Steam Summer Camp sale a few weeks back, I was able to pick up the 'Longest Journey' bundle. I had played the original some years back but most of that had faded from memory and the sequel would be brand new material
-

-
Take a look at the most popular development kits used inside some of the top game-development educational programs
-
A lot of Xbox Live Arcade games are overlooked each year. Some are merely overshadowed by bigger releases - or retro titles with smaller price tags. Others are unfortunately released at a time when bigger and better retail games hit the market, as everyone is busy playing them. Among these overlooked games is 'Fusion: Genesis'
-

-

-
What does it take for a game to stick in a player's memory? For RPGs, it could be the writing of story and characters. For an action game, it might be the flexibility of movement and fluidity of combat. For a shooter, the graphics could be the centerpiece. For "Hunted: The Demon's Forge," it's none of the above.
-
We're tracking down video gaming industry thought leaders to give you a sneak peek of the digital arts future through their eyes.

-
Intellectually, I understand the Supreme Court's 7-2 decision that the First Amendment protects the most violent of video games. Experientially, I don't. It's fine for the majority to say parents have ultimate control over what their children see, but how many members of the Supreme Court have experienced 'real' life?
-
'Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary' is a remake that works appropriately well
-
When Konami released 'Zombie Apocalypse' for download a couple of years ago, it brought forth an interesting arena shooting game in which the goal was to stay alive while battling hordes of the undead. The sequel, 'Never Die Alone,' expands on that with bigger areas and some personality-laden characters, benefiting as a result
-
'Sid Meier's Pirates' was remade in 2004 and it not only received amazing reviews from critics and gamers alike, but went down in gaming history as being one of the best pirate video games of all time. Even seven years later, it's still difficult to find a game that can outperform it. However, there is a new challenger to the pirate game throne in 'Pirates of Black Cove'

-
One month after the events of the first game, 'Infamous 2' puts you back in Cole's shoes as he seeks to become stronger, leaving you to decide whether he saves the world or destroys it
-
All in all, 'Fable III' is not an RPG. It is barely a feasible action game and can function in a pinch as a fantasy doll dress-up and interior design simulator. It doesn't have any clue what it wants to be and thus, I'm not even sure what standard of judgment to apply. Thus I fall back on the old tried and true, 'Is it fun?'

-
Imagine a future where you play a first-person shooter with nothing more than a twitch of your finger. How about an exercise app that calculates precise muscle movement via magnetized bracelets? That future is coming -- faster than you think
-
My initial opinion of 'F.E.A.R. 3' was that it was an astoundingly generic, cover based first-person shooter, but as time passed and I progressed further into the game, I came to realize that 'F.E.A.R. 3' was actually ...
-
'From Dust' is an amazing game and a wonderful testament to creativity in game design. It's simple, complex and utterly beautiful.
-
Gamerscores have been a staple of an Xbox player's personal identity, serving as a quick gauge for how much a gamer plays. 360Voice's Achievement Challenge has taken that metric and has debuted a unique meta-game around Gamerscores in Gears of War 3

-
Part of what makes 'FIFA Street' exude promise is the believability of it all
-
I'm all for an aggressive NASCAR game. So it made me happy to play 'NASCAR Unleashed' on the 360, with its simplistic arcade nature and its numerous options
-
'Dezaemon Kids!' can't compare to other, more serious games of the genre, but it's well worth $5.99 price. Here's Why
-
Matt Ployhar takes a look at the future of the slate form factor and its potential impact on everything from console gaming to Windows 8
-
Some games just aren't long enough for their own reviews, but are still important enough to deserve some attention. With that in mind we present the first of our Indy Shorts reviews. Here, I turn my attention to two recently released titles on Steam: 'Terraria' and 'Universe Sandbox'
-
Way back in the early days of 2007, there was a PlayStation 3 game with great promise, showing effectively what the system was built for and what the future held in store.

-
When Cakewalk released its SONAR X1 digital audio workstation (DAW), they weren't just giving composers a world-class set of audio tools; they were giving them a solution to their production challenges. Here, DIG takes a look at how two game composers have integrated the suite

-
Arti Gupta had the chance to talk to John Martin, vice president of marketing for Reallusion
-
'Galaga' is a game that gives a smile to anyone who grew up visiting arcades -- but, unfortunately, 'Galaga 30th Collection' for the iPhone isn't diverse enough in gameplay from game to game to warrant the cost, especially with the sometimes frustrating control scheme
-
'The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings' is a PC game (the Xbox 360 version is set to launch around the end of this year) that follows the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a magically enhanced monster hunter, or witcher (a name that I imagine sounds a lot cooler in Polish). The 'Witcher' games are based on the novels of Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski
-
L.A. Noire plays like a TV crime drama. Think 'Law & Order' meets the tone and pace of 'Heavy Rain' with the GTA engine with 'Mad Men'-esque style -- but even that's an imperfect comparison. 'L.A. Noire' has more of a point-and-click adventure mentality where objects are examinable but not every object is important
-
The prolonged PSN downtime was a result of hackers, and consequently Sony announced that everyone's PSN screen name, real name, address, email, birth date and password had been compromised.
-
There is so much talk about games these days. With the advent of tablets and smartphones, the platforms available to play games on are ever increasing.

-
Since 'Civilization V' was released last year, there has been a torrent of negativity spewed at it from the veteran 'Civ' community. And yet, when I hear this, something just does not jibe
-
I'll assume everyone reading this is aware of the 'Dragon Age,' series so I won't linger on the greater context. Where 'Dragon Age II' differs from its predecessor in terms of tone is that it is a much more personal story

-
Do you know what the opportunities are in PC gaming? They're probably better than you think. The PC gaming market is much bigger than consoles, both in installed base and in money made
-
'Portal 2' is the sequel to Valve's 2007 hit 'Portal' included as part of The Orange Box bundle -- which I'm fairly sure most people initially purchased for either 'Team Fortress 2' or 'Half-Life 2: Episode 2'
-
LEGO Universe is a massively multiplayer online game that takes place in an alternate universe populated by LEGO mini figures. Players must protect the final existing vestiges of pure imagination from extinction -- clearly a worthwhile quest and, very probably, a useful skill in life outside the MMO gaming environment
-
In this installment, we sat down with Eleanor Wynn, an anthropologist of computing who recently retired from Intel. Wynn gave us her thoughts on how gaming and working with information technology are related, and she told us what she thinks is on the horizon for gaming
