There isn't really much of an explanation to put here. Just lists some of you're favorite freeware, shareware, open-source, XBLA, PSN, WiiWare and falsh games that can be categorized as "indie".

Some of you may recall that last year, I wrote a blog entry where I described, what I thought were, the top 11 overrated games in recent years. I listed Bioshock in the #4 position, saying that the resources and ammunition are near infinite, along with criticsising the combat for focusing too...

Every year, there is usually a video game set to be released that makes us excited enough to pre-order the special edition of the said game with all the pointless extras. However, there is a good chance that the said game(s) won't live up to our expectations, leaving us dissapointed in the...

Now this may seem like a weird question to you, but let me explain. A game that's in the survival-horror genre is one where you find yourself in the role of someone who is an a location with a spooky atmosphere and has a real limited amount of rescources at his/her disposal. However, ever since...

I know, I've noticed that there has been somewhat of a debate over the issue of making console-exclusive video games ever since many former PS3 exclusive titles have been ported to the Xbox 360. The developers and publishers of these games defend this move by claiming that they are against the...

There are many different types of gamers out there, some you can relate to and some you that you utterly despise. I'm wondering which gamer-archetype is the one you can't feel any sympathy towards.

Out of the many video game-based magazines out there, there have two publications that stick out of the crowd by including extensive, in-depth coverage and writing, as well as being written and published in the U.K. These Magazines are Edge and GamesTM. So I started this topic asking which...

I've been wondering if anybody on the forums think that whether or not the Dead or Alive series could be considered as 'sexist'.

After reading two recent articles on Retro Gamer, I started to think about how there are recent games out that contain game design that's simple, fun and adictive (such as those found in retro games), that are combined with the technology used in today's games. So I was wondering if any of you...

Hey, I'm interested in purchasing an Amiga computer to play some classic games that I found interest in (Phantasie, Dungeon Master). So I was wondering if anybody would tell me some information I need to know before I purchase an Amiga (like which model I should buy).

Whenever I go on video game websites, or read video game magazines, I always hear how the GTA series "changed the way we play games", or something of that variation. However, alot of thing that make GTA praised, has been seen in other games before (Has anybody not heard of Computer RPGs?). So...

Do you prefer to play single-player games? Mult-player games? Or do you like them both equally?

I've recently been loosing nostalgia in playing games, and i'm wondering if people shared the same experience as I do now, and if people had any suggestion to make me nostalgic about video games again.

Which system do you prefer to play games on? A console? Or a PC?

Years ago, when Gametap was new, i looked to see what games were availible on its service. I noticed that Ultima 1-6 were on the list, but I don't see those games anymore. I was wondering if anybody knew the reason for this. I would've tried to e-mail Gametap about this, but i'm too lazy, and i...

I'm interested in subscribing for GameTap. And I knowticed that there are some games playable that you can purchase at retail. So, i'm wondering if I should subscribe to GameTap, or just purchase games at Gamestop.

Due to the reviews and praise I've heard of for Silent Storm, I decided to buy it. When I played it I felt dissapointed because the game seems to only focus on it's battles and nothing else. And i'm wondering if that later in the game, it would become more deep outside of combat.

With games out there like Full Spectrum Warrior, and Call of Duty 4, it kind of fuels the argument over the Iraq War. So my question is, "do you approve of games taking place in a modern-day middle eastern war setting" ?

I've been playing the Total Annihilation, and I think that it's nothing more than than an RTS where the only tactics is to out-number your opponents and use "rushing" strategies. Despite that, I keep seeing articles raving about Total Annihilation (IGN recently inducted it into it's "Top 100...

There are alot of video games out there that haven't aged well. What game comes to your mind when you think of this topic? and why?
