Kickstarter project of the week: Crea – a moddable sandbox

Sandboxes are more popular than ever, and with the success of games like MineCraft, this trend is likely to continue. This week, the Kickstarter project that grabbed me most was Crea, a 2D RPG sandbox which actively supports and encourages modding. Here’s what creator Jasson McMorris has to say:

All my knowledge – Guild Wars 2 Warrior Compendium

Due to overwhelming response I have decided to make a guide that lays out my own personal methodology for playing the Guild Wars 2 Warrior class. I originally did not want to make something this focused. There are so many viable builds and gear strategies out there and I don’t want you all to think you HAVE TO follow my example.

Console Me: The Shogunate of Nintendo – Ukiyo-e Heroes

If we were to travel back to the pixelated days of 1981 and explain to the fans of Donkey Kong that, in 2012, millions of gamers would still be toying around with the same, and as yet unnamed fat plumber, his captured girlfriend and the insane gorilla, I wonder what their reaction would be. Quite frankly, with the Cold War still in full flow and the likes of Reagan, Thatcher and their shady ilk looming on the horizon, would they even care?

Hands On: Guild Wars 2 – Tyrian Observation

I watch the merchant smile as I groan and take my silver coins from the latest sales. A measly profit, but it would have to do. Suddenly a behemoth of metal, fur and teeth emerges before my eyes, a chicken between its jaws. It roars out a challenge and I shake my head, attempting to keep a stern face. “Put the chicken down hon. Seriously.”

Hands on: Guns of Icarus Online review and beta giveaway!

The wind streaks past my face as I rush towards the engine, flames already blacken the hull as the kerosene inside ignites. The engine splutters and coughs, thick smoke billowing through the sky and giving away our position as I aim my fire extinguisher towards the flames, my heart pounding as another of my fellow engineers rushes to my aid and begins hastily slamming his trusty spanner against the metalwork.

In the head of the Langolier: Baldur’s Gate

As you may have heard, this summer will mark the return of an old favourite – Baldur’s Gate. Fans of the original series will remember it fondly, as does our cartoon videoblogger, Crass Langolier – so much so, in fact, that he’s devoting  a double episode entirely to Baldar’s Gate II. Why not the original you ask? Well, Crass will get to that. This week, his bar full of misfits entertains a special guest, self-proclaimed Baldur’s Gate expert Drenn, who will be enlightening first time players as to some of the features BG has to offer.

My day in the Forgotten Realms: A review of Dungeon and Dragons Menace of the Underdark Expansion

On Monday June 25th, Dungeons and Dragons Online, which was an Ebberon campaign based MMO, branched out boldly into a new expansion which takes adventurers into the Forgotten Realms.  The expansion is aptly titled “Menace of the Underdark” and is filled with several goodies for high level characters, including Epic levels, new dungeons and explorer areas and a new raid.  It also features a new path for classes levels 20 and over – the Epic Destiny line – which can really bring versatility to your character class.

Orcs Must Die 2 – Hands On!

Angry cries split the air as the approaching horde reach’s our line of traps. I glance at my trusty Warmage companion, then back to the lines of acid, rock, blades and arrows that block the enemy advance. It isn’t working. The orcs keep on coming, despite the mounting pile of bodies they steadily walk towards us. Our traps are no longer sufficient to stop the horde.

Console Me: Why Rockstar Games’ Games Rule

I finished Max Payne 3’s story mode earlier this week and while I was at it, scribbled down a review for End-Gamers. You can read it here if you like. I think you’ll find that I was pretty enamoured with it. I still am in fact and currently getting my arsed handed to me in the excellent multiplayer modes. But despite forking out 40 quid ($60’ish) every year on Xbox Live, I don’t usually get much enjoyment from my games’ multiplayer modes as (get your violin ready) I don’t have many friends on Xbox live; most of my friends own PlayStation 3s, plus I happen to suck big time too.

Shootmania!

I rush towards the hillside and hide beneath its relative safety, as streams of blue energy bolt across the sky above, crisscrossing like lightning. I move closer to the hillside, glancing to my right as two of my red comrades rush to the hilltop. Within seconds, they flinch and stop moving as a white aura engulfs them and they disappear into streams of light. Behind me, the remains of the red assault prepare for another push. I join them as we storm the hilltop only to be engulfed in a flash of blue. Moments later, white engulfs the hilltop and none of us remain.

They should be full length games!

Occasionally games have little segments that are so wonderfully executed that gamers feel a tight tug in their chest because there isn’t more to play. I’ll give you a little example: Black Ops had Zombies mode, a segment of game play outside the main campaign, with its own characters and a very, very loose story. Other examples include segments like Mercenaries mode in Resident Evil 4, 5 and 6, Saints Row 2’s zombie mode Zombie Uprising and even DLC, such as The Shivering Isles from Oblivion.
