Hot Coffee. There was a time when that actually brought to mind a cup of Joe. However, since the whole incident with Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, we rather think of the rediculous lawsuit involving a part of the game that isn’t actually playable without a good deal of work. So the final numbers from [...]

If you had a chance to play an ad-supported version of World of Warcraft, rather than shelling out $15 per month, would you go for it? Well apparently that’s the way Blizzard had originally intended to make the game.

Have you ever been playing a game and come upon an area that seems vaguely familiar? Well, on occasion some developers will pay homage to an earlier game by adding in certain details, items or even small areas to their game. However, if you notice that your game is littered with exact replicas of entire [...]

I have to say that I’ve been enjoying the onslaught of comic book characters that have made their way onto the silver screen lately.
