Little Big Planet 2: First thoughts from the Fellows

Little Big Planet 2: First thoughts from the Fellows

21 Sep, 2010

Tom’s Thoughts: The first Little Big Planet is probably my favourite game I have played on the Playstation 3. Of course since I do not actually own a PS3 I have been very limited in what I do play on the console, but still Little Big Planet was amazing. So of course I was very eager to jump on the second one as soon as I saw it at Gamescom. We waited around...

Fable 3: First thoughts from the Fellows

21 Sep, 2010

Tom’s Thoughts: After queuing for a fair 20 minutes or so Steve and I were offered the opportunity to get hands on and up-close with the one and only Fable 3. I really saw this as more of an opportunity to see if Peter Molyneux was inside the booth so I could stare at him more, from a distance of course, like I had done the night before. Alas, being the...

Brink: First thoughts from the Fellows

11 Sep, 2010

Tom’s Thoughts Brink was another situation where I expected nothing more than a fancy new trailer. We waited in the queue for a few minutes and were then shuffled into a room with multiple televisions and were shown a training video. The video outlined what the game was about, how to play and some of its main features, namely the free run mechanic. This would...

Portal 2, First thoughts from the Fellows

31 Aug, 2010

Tom’s thoughts: I’m not going to lie to you. I think both Steve and I were more enticed by the free Portal 2 t-shirt that we got on entry to the section than the actual game. Yeah the game is awesome and we saw some cool stuff, but a Portal 2 t-shirt, now that’s the shit. Unfortunately we were no treated any game play time, which is a royal shame, but in...

Gamescom: Homefront Preview Impressions

Gamescom: Homefront Preview Impressions

28 Aug, 2010

While waiting to watch the preview of THQ’s Homefront at Gamescom, I wasn’t expecting much. I mean, it’s a war-oriented first person shooter – surely just another Call of Duty wannabe? Maybe. But it feels more personal, somehow. Homefront is set in 2027 and the history leading up to the events in the game was presented to us in a chilling...

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, First thoughts from the Fellows

27 Aug, 2010

Goodmorrow! ‘tis time for more First thoughts from the fellows, this time I shall let Mr Beans Mackenzie take the lead, take it away sire! Tom’s thoughts: When we first noticed the Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood area I’m pretty sure we nearly pissed ourselves with excitement. Both Steve and I just couldn’t wait to see what was inside the closed off area...

Gamescom Preview: Stronghold 3 (PC)

24 Aug, 2010

I’m a gaming creature of habit. When it comes to expanding my gaming horizons I can sometimes be about as responsive as a dead mule, but even I – a girl with something of an issue with RTS titles – have long been aware of Firefly Studios’ cult classic Stronghold (did you know it outsold GTA 3 in Germany? True story. Apparently). So when publisher...

GGS 2010 Gamescom Awards

23 Aug, 2010

We came. We saw. We … got lost, fell out of showers, abandoned shithole hotels, got drunk with Microsoft people, got snubbed by Ubisoft (THANKS FOR THAT UBISOFT) and cried about missed flights home. We had an incredible time in Cologne and can’t quite believe that it’s all over for another year. We have loads to tell you about over the next few...
