It's hard to believe that only two months of the year 2010 are gone, if you're a gamer that is. We've already seen a host of spectacular titles, I mean, gaming has definitely gotten off to an awesome start. However, we're now entering one of the biggest months thus far, the month we've all been waiting for. For most of us, this is going to be one hell of a month, and our wallets will definitely be... more.

Interestingly, it's been confirmed that The Sims 3 will be arriving on consoles and handhelds sometime during this year. The game is listed as "The Sims 3 on Console Title" on EA's financial results report, which states that the console version is due in Q3 of this year. EA stated that the game will be appearing on consoles and handhelds, so I'm guessing they mean PlayStation 3, Xbox360, Nintendo ... more.

LucasArts and TT Games have stepped up and announced that development of a new Lego Star Wars game, titled Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars, is currently underway, and the game will be released in autumn this year on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PSP and DS. Word is that this game will cover the first season of the Clone Wars animated TV series, and will feature characters from both the show and... more.

We've just gotten past the first month of the year 2010 and already we've seen a couple of great games. Heck, we've even seen a highly likely candidate for the Game of the Year award, namely BioWare's Mass Effect 2. Well, January has just passed us so let's get our focus on February, because we can never have enough good games, right? So without further delay by means of rambling, eGamer presents ... more.

Nintendo has a few surprises for Wii owners. The Japanese game company has released a list of games which will enter the market later this year. There will be a few M rated games on the list, followed by more sporty titles. The following titles should be released first: Kirby Super Star, Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Legend of Zelda and Golden Sun. A few of these games will be for the DS device. ... more.

Capcom have announced that a new game, titled the Mega Man Zero Collection, is currently making its way to the Nintendo DS. The Mega Man Zero Collection will include all four Game Boy Advanced games in the Zero series on a single game card. The Zero Collection will be released in Japan on the 22nd of April 2010. Aside from including all four games, we don't really have any other details on what th... more.

The eGamer Awards are now over. Admittedly, we didn't get around to doing all of them, because we were pressed for time and slacked around on holiday. Now that the awards are all over, we're doing the wrap-up, which is a list of all the awards we handed out and the winners (or losers) of them. Some of the games on the list are awards we never got around to doing, but reading through this list will... more.

Our final award was the Game of the Year Award - as you know. However, I felt that we needed to do one final award to hate on honour the ultimate Bastard of 2009. Since this is probably new to you, I will give you a brief idea of what this award is. The Bastard of the Year Award is what we give to someone that did something so bastardly that we will hold secret or public hate for it until the end ... more.

This is it - the final and biggest award of them all. We know we're late with these awards, but we're blaming it on technical difficulties and holiday. Don't ask me what the technical difficulties were, because they're confidential and stuff - I think. Anyway, back to what's important. Game of the Year is the ultimate award to give and only a truly outstanding game can achieve it. After looking at... more.

We've come to one of the last entries of eGamer's 2009 Awards. This award deals with, as you might have guessed, all of the consoles. We're basically going to be analysing the games, declaring the best games on each system and working towards naming the console that performed the best this year. I'm not a big fan of this award because it really sparks fanboy wars and controversy, but I do like tak... more.

We're nearing the end of eGamer's Awards for 2009 - we're closing in on the big one. So, we've come to the award for Best Graphics and, while it's not really an award I like very much personally, it's still a very important one. While you'll hear me say quite often that graphics don't make a game, but rather the fun factor and gameplay makes a game what it is, I can't deny that graphics can someti... more.

You probably would have noticed that there was no monthly game releases article in December, and the reason for that was because, well, we were preparing to go on holiday, gearing up to do eGamer's Awards and there weren't really any games coming out that month, except well, The Saboteur. Well, we've just entered 2010 (happy new years everyone!) and that means the monthly game releases article mak... more.

This is another of my personal favourite awards, for the simple reason that it's the time to project my inner rage at the year's ultimate failures. However, it's also a sad time for me because some of the games that make this list are some I anticipated and was once excited for - so you can see that I'm at an emotional conflict right about now. Ok stranger, who probably doesn't give a damn about m... more.

This award is a personal favourite of mine. Sure sequels can be awesome and all, and a lot of the best games in history are sequels, but there are times when we gamers long to see something new and different - heck, even something we've seen before but with a different name and concept is sometimes good enough for us. Numbers just seem to irritate gamers after a while, that's a given, I mean, perh... more.

While we're all harping over all the awesome games that get released in a year, we should also be taking the time to acknowledge the guys who make these games possible, hence the Studio of the Year award. In this award, we'll be naming the Studio and developers that we think did the coolest thing and we'll be explaining exactly why said Studio is deserving of this award. So then, let's get down to... more.
