I once knew a guy called Chicken-Harrier. He was a dolphin-man. And when he wasn’t busy pondering his own existence he tended toward socialising with a friendly family of sentient ducks that lived in a horse factory inside our teacher’s computer screen.
No, I haven’t gone insane. I’m talking irrelevant drivel. The very same kind of [...]

No spoilers here, just some friendly advice.  If you’ve still not had the privilege of playing inFamous, I’d like to reccomend that you skip the goody-two-shoes “Heroic” manner of play and get down and dirty with an evil existence.  You get more cool crap, and that’s why we play video games right?

As gamers, we all have one.  I’m talking about the “stack of shame”… those games we had every intention of beating (or sometimes even just playing) but for whatever reason, we never got around to it.  Frawlz is a good friend of mine; he’s not just a fellow podcast host, but a close friend.  I [...]

Last week, I wrote a blow-by-blow account of my taking my new birthday present out for a spin, a new, shiny PS3.  It was a minute to minute account of everything from setting up a new account to logging into Home for the first time, and I thought it was very comprehensive.
Of course, I got [...]

While totally in love with the gameplay offered by inFamous for the PS3, the missions towards the end of what I assume to be the first act were really wearing on me. Essentially: kill all the reapers.
This game is fun but incredibly repetitive.  I mean the game repeats itself.  It’s the same thing over and over.  [...]

InFAMOUS starts off with a bang. Literally. The title screen shows a serene shot of a sleepy Empire City. The streets are calm, the birds are chirping, and the streetlights emit a faint glow. It is the kind of scene that belongs on a postcard. Then, once you hit the start button, the s*** hits [...]

Sorry this is late. I got a little carried away this evening on a certain um…. reality show.  Anyhow.
On this episode we talked about Wolverine, Infamous, and Battlestations Pacific.  We also introduced a new segment to the show (Following Leigh Alexander on Twitter), Challenged each other to a standing on one leg contest and more… [...]

I generally like to go into reviews with a highly critical standpoint. That way if it’s bad I’m not disappointed, and if it turns out to be good then I’m pleasantly surprised.
Such was not the case in this instance. I’ve been hyped for this game for months and after getting my grubby little hands on [...]
