Leah’s (Extremely Late) Ten Best Games of 2010
In: Articles by Leah "WhiteGodiva" Haydu
8 Mar 2011Yes, I know it’s March. I’m not late; I’m retro. Anyway, since everyone else has already had his or her say, I wanted to put my two cents in and talk about my favorite games of last year. My “best of” lists tend, in general, to be a bit different from most people’s, largely because I [...]

2010 in Spoilers
In: Articles by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola
2 Mar 20112011 is already off to a big start as far as game releases go, and it shows no signs of slowing down, so it’s understandable if you can’t find the time to go back to some of those 2010 game you were meaning to play. I know I haven’t. So in the interest of helping [...]

Rest In Peace, MGC
In: Articles by Leah "WhiteGodiva" Haydu
27 Feb 2011If you’re a regular browser of gaming websites, you’ve probably noticed something strange in the past day or so. Where many sites (including GameHounds) previously listed their writers’ XBox Live gamertags using a service called MyGamerCard.net, there are now no avatars, no gamertags, and no list of recently played titles. Instead, there are boxes thanking [...]

In: Reviews by Nick "Alsop Live" Dinicola

Game Room: Lame Room, or Why It Failed
In: Articles by Dave "Holy Goalie" Gardner
17 Aug 2010When Microsoft announced it was bringing a new feature called Game Room to the Xbox 360, I was intrigued. It announced it was going to recreate games from the 80s arcades, the Atari 2600, and Mattel Intellivision, to name a few. The focus was going to be on making this game as close to the [...]
