PAX 2011: Borderlands 2 Preview

In: Articles by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola

Before the demo starts, Steve Gibson of Gearbox reassures all of us in the room that Borderlands 2 isn’t just a quick, cash-in sequel; and the fact that it’s not coming out until “fiscal year 2013” certainly supports that claim. After watching the demo, I’m fully convinced: Gearbox is keeping what works while changing what’s familiar, [...]

For those of us who have played the Battlefield franchise over the years, we have certain expectations of each new game that is released. Ever since Battlefield 1941 I’ve craved to play online with friends and huge groups of people. I even went so far as to create a LAN party with ethernet cables running outside barracks rooms [...]

Look, I won’t lie. There’s been a lot of confusion about this since the news first hit. So let us spell it out for you. It started with a employee blog for a Japanese game retailer noting that a new Playstation 3 is set for release. The new model — CECH-3000B — reportedly will start [...]

The whole security thing just got very, very nasty. On Thursday, hacker group LulzSecurity, AKA LulzSec, published a file containing passwords and email of 62,000 users of Xbox Live, PayPal, and Facebook. The group uploaded the file to file sharing sites twice: Once in its initial posting and a second time after the site removed [...]

You know, as a writer, I’m just thinking: Instead of writing a new article each time it happens, I should just have a template and plug in the company names. Kinda like a Mad Libs game. Maybe not. Even I have some journalistic standards, however dubious. Back to the point: Sega announced on Sunday that, [...]

Where does all that leftover swag for games go? Well, if you’re at Valve, and that swag is for Portal 2, you hold a video-making contest, throw in a signed guitar from The National, and give it all away. The competition, which runs from now until July 15, calls for aspiring directors to put together [...]
