REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Nintendo Unsure on 3DS Game Demos

Posted on Tuesday, March 22 @ 12:05:28 Eastern by William_Blase


Nintendo 3DS producer Hideki Konno spoke with Wired about upcoming 3DS features, particularly 3DS game demos that he thought was "technically feasible" but questionable as to whether they're worth Nintendo's time:

I question whether or not demos are effective. There are cases where people play a demo game and they're satisfied with that play experience and they don't buy the game.

There are also times when they play a demo and think, 'Wow, this is great, I'm going to buy this when I have the chance'. So whether or not it's an effective use of resources, I'm not sure.

My solution? Put out demos for good games. (That way, we'll know which ones are bad not yet ready to be good.)

    In this particular case, there are many people who question whether or not the 3DS is something even worth purchasing... so I would think that, this early in the game (get it?), it would be a pretty wise choice to give potential buyers a good demonstration of the things capabilities.
