IGN’s Tal Blevins wrote a well-thought-out editorial about how E3 was a shadow of its former self and that something had to be done soon, to save it.  He seems to feel that, based on his 15 years of attending every E3 in history, that the summit has lost its way, and its excitement.  He’s [...]

I spent only 10 minutes with Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway at E3, hardly enough time to fully evaluate the game, but that doesn’t stop me from passing judgment on its hellacious, horrible, broken, annoying, impossible, and out-of-place control scheme for the PS3. Excruciating details, post-jump.

This time last year, Sarcastic Gamer proclaimed media ass kissers as 2007’s Best of E3 for their ridiculous fawning over Reggie Fils-Aime and Nintendo’s E3 press conference. This year, Sarcastic Gamer has taken a step back, looked at everything that’s offered, from Gears of War 2, Resistance 2, Fable 2, and all of the [...]

I, like many people, was extremely disappointed with Nintendo’s E3 media briefing. The company promised a game (that’s right, just one) that would keep hardcore gamers occupied this holiday season. That game? “Animal Crossing: City Folk.” Sorry Reggie, I think I will pass.
Aside from “Animal Crossing,” Nintendo introduced “Wii Sports Resort,” [...]

Out of all the games scheduled to be hoisted up for praise at this years E3, only one had me twitching for more details. That game, of course, is Little Big Planet. You know, that game I brazenly said would be the PS3’s game of the year. With some stellar new gameplay videos and some [...]

After playing Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, which both took suckatude to previously unimaginable heights, what little faith I had in movie tie-in games died. You push a game to be released at the same time as a movie and you get garbage. Which is why the recent announcement by developer GRIN is so [...]

Note: Only Doc and Dave are actually at E3, so these impressions are based of Gamespot’s E3 Live show. The show features a live video demo played by the developer of the game, questions posed to the developer and discussion of the game, so even though I’m not in LA, these impressions are pretty well [...]

At a LittleBigPlanet press conference, Alex Evans from Media Molecule revealed that the loveable Stephen Fry (he didn’t say lovable) will be narrating Sack Boy’s debut title. For those of you who don’t know, Stephen Fry is an English, writer, actor, novelist and television presenter who’s voice you may recognise from the Hitch Hiker’s [...]

Doc and Dave got a chance to see a walkthrough of Sony Online Entertainment’s upcoming MMOFPS The Agency. While they got to see it first hand, and let the SOE representative do the talking, I thought I’d take a minute to hit the high points and offer my off-the cuff impressions.

Well I was unsure as what to expect meeting and hang with the guys. It is a strange thing to finally meet some of my best online friends over the last year.
But I gotta say ” It is f-ing awesome ” .
I have had loads of fun getting to know Doc and Dave in person. [...]

I’ve tried 3 times to start this post, and somehow I just can’t seem to find a way to express my elation over having just played Battlestations Pacific on the Xbox 360. The game takes the incredibly addictive foundation of its Midway predecessor, and polishes it to a high shine, with better textures, graphics, [...]
