Rhythmic games are “the shit” these days. After Singstar, games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band are now dominating the charts. It’s the retro days all over again. Of course, for those of us who don’t feel like making the music but like experiencing it, we can trace our steps to the game that started [...]

Some think geeks do not understand, or want to understand football (not the American variation, but FOOTball). Most are right. The majority of us just can’t find any joy in running behind a ball. And then there’s the rest of us. The ones who know the feeling of landing a perfect shot, adrenaline running through [...]

The Omnibus world in Asda Story, is a fantasy world, based upon people’s dreams. It was created when people first learned to express their imagination in words. A wonderful world, but man grew skeptical and started denying the reality behind dreams. As a result, the world stopped expanding. Man grew worried and felt a deep [...]

Virtual Worlds are computated replica’s of the real world. They’re extensive multi-user experiences, in which one can meet new people, or pursue forgotten dreams. What’s so great about these Virtual Worlds, is that they allow people to get a taste of alternative realities. People can put on other people’s skins; the shy clerk can become [...]

I remember playing Worms at a friends place when I was little. We’d boot up the Windows 95 system, wait half an hour, and start playing.

Most shooter fans know these games by name, and have played at least one, and possibly even several of them. The Battlefield games have always been popular, and enjoyed by masses, but the latest game, Battlefield Heroes, heads [...]

Spring started yesterday for some, and there’s hardly any snow left in the world, save in the polar and other extreme areas. Of course, for those of you who don’t like quitting or giving up, who want to keep skiing or snowboarding even in the midst of summer, we still have fictional media. Be it [...]

Global Risk. The best soldiers, hand selected from the world’s leading Special Forces organisations. The members of this nation-bound group are the elite of the elite, and although they fight for money, they are driven by justice. Global Risk confronts Black List. Another organisation, though not quite so noble. These international mercenaries commit terror, focusing [...]

Beat ‘em ups. They offer ‘strategy’ for some, and brainless entertainment for most other people, which is especially nice in these busy days. We wrote about them in the past, on MakeUseOf. Mind you, not your average beat ‘em ups. No, you can find tons of those on the web already, most often without too [...]

The size of software and games these days can be quite a bother. Although internet connections are getting faster as well, downloading a few gigabytes is never met with too much joy. More and more do we see an evolution of some kind, and do we meet a world where installing stuff becomes a thing [...]
