A study conducted in 2012 by the ESA concludes that 47% of gamers ages 18+ are female, and that there are more female gamers over the age of 18 than there are boy gamers ages 17 and under. The average age of all gamers, male and female, is 30 years, according to the same ESA [...]
Quite a few people are talking about how the PlayStation 4 is going to use GDDR5 RAM, rather than the more standard DDR3 RAM found pretty much everywhere else in the world of computing. GDDR5 RAM is almost exclusively used in high-end video cards, and that’s about it. So how is Sony going to get [...]
The first question that probably comes to mind is, “why the hell would you review a decade old game? What are you, some kind of nostalgia reviewer?” The answer to that question takes me back to the year 1823, I was a fighter pilot in Vietnam and the Nazis had managed to finally ward off [...]
Sony’s PlayStation 3 was the first of their consoles to be panned and considered lackluster. It did eventually outsell the Microsoft 360, of course, but it took a very long time for the console to build up solid momentum, and for all of the launch-era negativity stirred up by fans of the 360 and Nintendo’s [...]
If you’re a big fan of the Civilization franchise of games, you’ve probably seen the news that a new expansion pack for Civilization V, tentatively titled One World, is possibly on the way. If this turns out to be true, fans will soon be treated to a whole new batch of fresh content for the award-winning strategy [...]
How I yearn for the golden days of multiplayer gaming. You and a couple of friends, sitting on the edge of someone’s bed or on the floor, staring into some tiny television set while you waited patiently for your turn to come up, joking and laughing and eating pizza together. Sure, there were the occasional [...]
In the past thirty years, a wide array of individuals and organizations have tried pinning all of the world’s violence on video games, claiming that by simply playing violent games, a person is somehow more likely to turn into a heartless psychopath hellbent on killing everyone and everything they see. Of course, we all know [...]
I remember it like it was yesterday. The year was 1993 — I was thirteen years old — and I was celebrating either my birthday or Christmas (they’re pretty close together). My parents gave me a Super Nintendo game that at the time was shocking and exciting, but I mainly remember it because each time [...]
I have played many games over the years and one of my favorite things is finding a way to expedite level grinding. I love assigning stat points and watching my character grow in power. Every now and then though you come across a character that is just darned hard to get anywhere with. Following are a [...]
You might have looked at the title of this article, and thought to yourself “why would they review a game that’s been out for a year already?” The answer is pretty simple: a year later, I’m still playing Battlefield 3, and I consider it to be one of the greatest FPS titles I’ve ever had [...]
If you pay any attention to game industry media, chances are you’ve heard of The War Z already, and your impression of the game is probably pretty terrible. As the most controversial game release of 2012, The War Z picked up a pretty nasty reputation right out of the gate, and yes, we’re going to [...]
I’m usually a big fan of games that break through the boundaries of convention and attempt to deliver something new. To this end, Anno 2070 looked to be quite the promising title, with its fresh, sci-fi vibe and setting, and what appeared to be some unique gameplay dynamics, from the outside looking in, anyway. The [...]
