Following the absolute shitstorm that errupted after the Xbox One reveal, one topic really got to me. That’s the topic of used games requiring a fee, essentially destroying used games [...]

I decided to try something different. Usually my rants are carefully planned assaults spanning walls of organised rage in text, but I decided to just let my anger flow naturally [...]

After the partial PS4 reveal, where we did not get to see the actual console, I was leaning towards the PS4 as a replacement for my ageing 360. My one [...]

Recorded: 22 May 2013 Welcome to another themed episode of the eGamer Podcast. This week we’re talking about the topic that is on the lips, keyboards and webcams of every [...]

Ah, the love life. Most gamers are lucky in this department while some of us struggle. I blame being a gaming snob on my lack of luck. (I have to [...]

The Xbox Reveal is now well in the past. We know what Microsoft had hidden under its covers and we’ve seen what it can do. But now that all is [...]

Games are not supposed to be realistic as we all know. Sure, some games strive to have a more “realistic” setting and mechanics, but in the end it always comes [...]

If you don’t know who Kevin Conroy is, then you must not be that exposed to Batman content. Conroy has been the voice actor for Batman in video games and [...]

I have to be honest and say that it’s not often I feel I was a little off in my verdict of a game. Most of the reviews I’ve done [...]

We’ll probably know by the end of the day, whether or not this shall actually be a thing, but on the brink of the Xbox Reveal which takes place later [...]

Another day is almost done and my activities of the past hours since waking up form a blur of gaming news, gaming media, Game of Thrones and gaming lust… you [...]

Last week we shared the news with you of Electronic Arts finally doing away with its silly online pass system. This came on something of a rollercoaster day of good [...]

The heading of this article might be redundant to some, but I’m pretty stoked about the appearance of these little jests put into our present games. (Or rather the general [...]

As Microsoft finalises its new-Xbox launch, for Tuesday evening, one can only wonder what the software giant has in store. A couple of months ago we saw the PlayStation 4 [...]

How can I best sum this week up? All the series finales, the new Xbox may have a name, online passes die, our podcast officially goes weekly and some other [...]

I’d like to dedicate this week in comments to nobody in particular. Live long and prosper. Actually I’d like to dedicate it to whoever doesn’t win a title because that [...]

I very nearly mentioned how I rarely ever log onto Facebook anymore or interact with people on it. That would’ve been a bad idea, right? I’m so glad I didn’t. [...]

Welcome to another edition of This Week In Indie, there’s not much in the way of news this week largely due to a shortage of actual newsworthy topics. However, this [...]

I spent a few hours earlier this week, between reading academic articles and Moby Dick, playing a browser-based game with a concept that caught my eye. As I often do [...]

Recorded: 14 May 2013 Now a weekly occurrence! Welcome to episode thirty one of the eGamer Podcast, certifiably the only podcast in the known universe which has Dean in it. [...]

Games have tough lifetimes if you really think about it. First, they have to be meticulously crafted by people using bits of code and some colours. Then they have to be printed [...]

Of gamers in the world, there are many different types. Some play games casually; some play games more than anything else that they do, including sleep; some call themselves hardcore [...]

> You are in a large room. Drawers line three of the four walls, extending up the ceiling. The door on the last wall is covered with a dark brown [...]

Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky tacky. I don’t remember the last time I walked into a gaming retailer, looked at a pretty box, and thought, [...]

In between all the debates regarding politics, economics and pretty much all the things I’m not quite fond of, I’ve wondered about games and their difficulty settings. I do like [...]

There are few things in the gaming industry that anger me more than bad publisher practices, especially when they hurt us as consumers and damage the industry. I suppose what [...]

I’ve never been one for nostalgia because I didn’t grow up with the games that are now considered nostalgic. If the majority of gamers think nostalgia they think Mario, Zelda, [...]

Not many people have played Batman: Arkham City as much as I have. Now that’s not some declaration of my totally actual gamer superiority or anything, but rather, I need [...]

The amounts of YouTube videos out there are staggering. I’m sure that’s like saying that grass is green and books are filled with words. (Although, come to think of it, [...]

Or: How Suspension Of Disbelief Is So Nineties. Picture if you will, you’ve just arrived at a predetermined location with your ally in tow. Opting to look around rather than [...]
