Goodbye to Xbox Live’s 1 vs. 100
0 CommentsPosted by Jonathan on July 16, 2010 under Games, News
The free game that so many of us loved, 1 vs. 100, has been canceled. It was just recently confirmed that there will be no third season for the popular Xbox Live title. This is a shame, since it was arguably the best free game on the Xbox Live network and was a lot of fun to play with friends if you were in the mood for some relaxing and non-serious gaming. It was also a very unique experie... more. -

Someone I know from the GameSpy forums is making his own video game documentary titled, You Meet The Nicest People Making Video Games. Check out the trailer: [youtube sF6t4TUgW... more. -

Dungeon Siege III When I talked of the new Fallout game, I mentioned I was a fan of Diablo II. Truth be told, I like my hack 'n slash sub-genre. The games may not be smart or well-written, but they are mighty fun. With Obsidian, the people behind the upcoming Fallout: New Vegas, behind the helm, you can expect that there will be some well-written dialogue – this is still an action RPG, though. ... more. -

Civilization V Civilization is getting another sequel. A few years ago we saw a pretty big leap from Civ III to Civ IV, and now I believe we're seeing another huge leap in the series. Civilization V now uses hexagon tiles instead of the classic square tiles – this isn't the biggest change but it does change how movement is handled. The game is prettier, as expected. It's not just the graphics ... more. -
