TF2 is Free Forever

Well, Valve has done it again. They've shown the world the proper way to be a game developer.

Indie Game: The Movie

I thought this video looked pretty sweet. As a student of computer science now, one of my biggest dreams it to become a game developer. There's this sort of understood drive to making your own game, it's like the American Dream of owning your own business, being your own boss. Making games is hard though, as a service, you have to hope people like it or it's game over.

25 Years of Zelda

This is a 25 Years of Zelda picture being made. This is a bit old at this point but if you haven't seen it yet, see it. I love this kind of passion in this industry.

Wii U is... about what you expect.

Well, it's happened. Nintendo has revealed to the world yet another console which no one is really quite sure about. They seem to be getting quite good at being unpredictably successful. The Wii U looks like a Wii that has gained some power and a new shiny huge controller.

What you get with this is an HD Nintendo console that has roughly 50% more power than a Playstation 3. This sounds great but when you remember that the PS3 is five year old technology it feels like maybe Nintendo should have put a little more power under the stylishly white hood. Of course, the final specifications have yet to be announced and developers don't even have a final dev kit yet.

Controlling this beast looks like a mystery to those of us who haven't played it but initial reports from those at E3 are positive.



Initial reports from developers say the console is easy to develop for which is great for getting decent 3rd party support.

Castle of Shikigami III for Nintendo Wii Review

Otomedius Excellent? Oto-I Really Want This Game!

OK, so I'm bad at rhymes, but just look at it. Joystiq says it's coming July 19 and I want it. I saw a video for it a while back and have ever since wanted it. Check out the video below.

What I've learned from Japan is that a game that has bikini pirate cat girl spaceship with a ski mask must be great. (0:38 in video) The special edition of the game comes with a pillowcase too. I don't think I'll be using it, but it doesn't stop me from wanting it any less than a pizza box or boxers.

The standard edition will be $29.99 and the excellent special edition will be $49.99.

This game will be misunderstood and extremely tacky, I can't buy it fast enough. Good job Konami!
