Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilightsure does look like a modern-daywarriorreal-time strategy game. If that wasn’t apparent to you before, this walkthrough of a GDI mission will open your eyes to the fact. Someone is clearly a fan ofDawn of War II‘s style of limited base-building play, although I wouldn’t consider that to be a negative. The video is cut in such a way — probably to keep the action flowing (OMG, go make some popcorn!...
Do you guys remember thatEarthworm Jimgame that was supposed to be heading towards the closest PSP? No? Didn’t think so. Well don’t worry about it — what you don’t know can’t hurt you, and the game probably won’t see the light of day. Vague reportsof some other, possible, maybe, kinda, sorta EWJ game aside, the future looks bleak for the Annelid Avenger. Alissa Bell, official Bad News Bear at Atari, who stil owns theEarthworm Jimlicense, had this to say:...
In case you hadn’theard already, Electronic Arts’ Origin is more than just a petty attempt to undermine Steam. It’s aninsidiouspetty attempt to undermine Steam. The service has upset gamers since it reserves the right to act like Spyware, allowing EA to dig around in your hard drive as explicitly stated in the terms of service. The EULA says that EA can identify your computer, operating system, installed/uninstalled software/hardware, and use that information for marketing purposes while merrily sharing it with third party companies....

Remember GDC 2007? I don’t. I recall having a conversation with Adam Sessler, then some darkness, then looking for my pants inDyson’sapartment, then more blurriness, then maybe a bear. Honestly, I’m not really clear on that entire week. One thing I do recall vividly, though, is the impression made by the people at CCP Games. Not only were they co-responsible forthe finest party of the entire week, they were also just intensely cool people, and fans of Destructoid....

That’s old news and gamers have been squealing itsince the dawn of time.However, when the head of a major third party starts saying it, there should be cause to take note. This is exactly what’s happened, as Ubisoft’s CEO,Yves Guillemot, has saidquite franklythat Sony need to cut their prices if they wish to stay at the top of the mountain....
The 3DS eShop finally comes to the 3DS on June 6 in the United States and June 7 in Japan. The service is similar to the Wii Channel and DSiWare platform of digital delivery but it also marks a new direction Nintendo is taking with their online service. The overall impression I got with the new eShop is that Nintendo will be a lot more involved with the promotion of content, before, during and after a game’s release....

I’ve been hearing some not-so-great things about the 3DS version ofRayman 2, which is disappointing. What’s not a disappointment, however, is the news that Good Old Games has secured the originalRaymanfor re-release. In fact, $5.99 gets youRayman Forever— a bundle of the classic (and still quite gorgeous) platformer, a level editor, and 40 staff-chosen, fan-made levels. RememberAlegro Prestro? Without even clicking that link, I can hear it coming back to me....
