The Dating Secrets Of Your Favorite Video Game Characters

1:30PM February 8, 2012 | Leigh Alexander

Nathan Drake has recently purchased a new MacBook, after talking to several of his friends about it for several weeks. He has done more discussing the MacBook than he has actually using it, and secretly he enjoys causing the icons to sort of ‘pop’ along the bar at the bottom of the screen more than he enjoys operating the various applications that have come with his new Apple experience.

More Triangles In Games! Love-Triangles, That Is.

12:00PM January 17, 2012 | Kirk Hamilton

I was disappointed with Uncharted 3 for a number of reasons. Certainly one of those reasons was that the game had bizarre difficulty spikes and could be kind of a dick sometimes. But another, possibly bigger reason was that while Uncharted 3 generally mirrored the pacing and story-arc of Uncharted 2, it lacked one of my favourite things about its predecessor: chemistry. Specifically, the romantic chemistry born of the love-triangle between Nathan Drake, Chloe and Elena. More love-triangles in games, please! More »
