(With Apologies to Wu-Tang Clan) The Art of Sandboxing

There’s a constant argument in my household. My wife and I tend to mislabel one another’s taste in games. Because she’s a recovering hardcore nerd who used to play pen and paper RPGs before she moved in with me, I often overgeneralize her taste. Truth is, she quit Fable II about eight months ago and hasn’t looked back,...

EA Says Pandemic Closed Because It Was Too Expensive, Not Bad Games

Did you play Lord of the Rings: Conquest? How about Mercenaries 2: World In Flames?

If there's one thing Pandemic is skilled at, it's providing you with a giant playground and access to every tool you could use to level said playground into smoldering ruins.

EA On Why Saboteur, Dragon Age Isn't This Year's Dead Space, Mirror's Edge

Dead Space and Mirror's Edge were poised as massive, blockbuster new franchises for Electronic Arts last year, but while both were mostly critical successes (though Mirror's Edge nicely divided people), neither were the multi-million sellers they'd been pegged as.

Analyst Michael Pachter Praises Activision For Its Sequels, Rips EA For Risks

Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter is arguably the most respected and influential analyst in the video-game business. While I respect him, he sometimes says things that piss me off.
