Sony prides themselves in the number of exclusive titles that have appeared on the PlayStation platform. From Ico to Uncharted, PlayStation has one of the strongest lines of exclusive titles in the industry. This week Sony’s longest running franchise will finally make its PlayStation 3 debut. ...

What do legendary pitcher Curt Schilling, best selling author R. A. Salvatore and famed game designer Ken Rolston have in common? They’re all working hard to bring out the first big RPG in the post Skyrim era. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is the debut title from 38 Studios and is a game you should...

Up until now there haven’t been many big video game releases. Don’t get me wrong, Margaritaville Online has its place, but it is hardly a hardcore title. Unless you mean hardcore drinking, but even that is questionable. Luckily the end of January means the first of 2012′s big console...

This week is predominately dedicated to downloadable content. Several of last year’s biggest games are getting content updates. Rise of the Rakghouls is the first content update for the new MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic. Gears of War 3 is getting its third major content update with the Fenix...

The death of Pinball is one of the saddest events in gaming history. While no one can question the popularity of a pinball table, they never made much economical sense. The more a person played a pinball table, the less money that person would spend. A skilled player could dominate a table with only a...

I’m sort of known as the local “horder” amongst my group of friends. I collect video games and video game memorabilia, and I rarely sell my games after completing them. Walking into my game room can often feel like walking into a video game museum in many ways, but unlike most collectors I...
