Hmm! I’d actually forgotten all about this column, but it’s a good time to bring it up, as roughly half of it discusses my unusual excitement for the announcement of Major League Power Pros, the North American localisation of the (massively popular in Japan) Powerful Pro Baseball series.
I don’t even really like baseball (certainly […]

This is the article I mentioned a little while ago in my post about my Film Friday, “King Kong Fever“.
It’s mostly about how addictive I find the Xbox 360’s Gamerscore, even though I’m well aware it’s completely pointless. You gain absolutely nothing from it other than the joy of seeing numbers go up, and […]

Perhaps surprisingly, 52 Gaming Similes To Describe Your Relationship still gains this site a ridiculous number of daily hits, mostly thanks to Stumbleupon, a site which I wasn’t actually previously familiar with. It’s done the article a lot more good than Digg did, strangely (I always thought Digg was where the action is.) Anyway, as […]

This article was certainly for European readers, as it’s one long cuss of Sony for crippling the backwards compatibility of the PS3 in Europe. As this was written (literally) on the day they announced they were ripping out the hardware emulation, it’s a bit more doom and gloom than it could have been, but the […]

Game Reactor has had a redesign, and has turned from one of the best looking magazines out there (that I can’t understand a single word of) into, um, an even better looking magazine (that I still can’t understand a single word of.)
In the new redesign, too, they’ve actually managed to make the picture of […]

Goodness! What on earth could this article be about?
Well, it’s about the Wii and PS3 launches! Because I wasn’t about to stand outside in the pouring rain with food poisoning (the PS3 launch) or get up early on a Sunday morning (the Wii launch) and only get the GamesIndustry.biz articles out if it, no sir. […]

A pretty unusual piece, this (um, having said that, though, all of my Game Reactor articles are pretty unusual, one way or another) in that it’s actually more of an interview with a screenwriter than it is an opinion column about games.
But! The screenwriter in question happens to be the excellent JT Petty, director […]

I have absolutely no idea what the title of this article translates as, but whatever it is, this article is a nice little primer on Second Life, as by September last yer I’d been embedded in the world for a couple of months.
Naturally, all I do is slag it off for being completely rubbish.
It […]

Right, well, it’s the first day of the second week of 2007, so it’s probably time to get back into the habit of posting sort-of but not-really daily posts here as I still haven’t run out of work I need to archive for posterity on this site.
This is yet another utterly rambling article, but as […]

What a lovely cover for a lovely game, eh? Well, this is, as you might expect from the date, an article about E3. The title in English was “Beware the Quiet ones”, and as such I spend most of it discussing how loud and bombastic both the PS3 and Wii were compared to the Xbox […]
