If you’re adept with the keyboard or console, chances are your hands are also adept with a remote controller.
For some weird reason, most gamers into video games are also into remote control vehicles. It’s not hard to figure out why: it’s like how most men who are into beers and car are also into women. And I mean not just as friends. That’s just how the male species is wired.
When it comes
Inside every gamer, there lurks a little boy who wishes for some Mad Max-style action.
Admit it: even before you started playing computer games, you’ve banged your Hotwheels together in a make-believe explosion of fiery, cataclysmic death. Or perhaps you’ve sent a Tonka truck careening off the second-floor window, mimicking a Hollywood crash off a 100-foot cliff. Decades later, when you get behind the w
I may be the only one who has this opinion, but it sure seems to me that the soundtracks to most video games have two distinct purposes. The first and most obvious purpose is to heighten the gaming experience for the gamer playing the game. This can be scary music as the game proceeds through a haunted house, squealing tires and high tempo music as the race approaches the finish line in car games, or the full symph
Dirt 3 is a popular racing video game developed by CodeMasters. It is the third of the Colin McRae Rally series. While there are some people who love the game, there are others who complain about the game’s inconsistencies.
Since the release of the game on May 24, 2011, Dirt 3 has enjoyed tremendous success. In just four months, the racing game has scored an 8.5 from IGN. It just goes to show that the racing game
In the Art of War, one of the little-known gems of Sun Tzu goes thus:
When faced with an impossible situation
against which you have no hope of winning;
Crack ‘Yo Momma’ jokes.
While our translation may not be accurate from the original text, the meaning is nonetheless clear: when faced with overwhelming odds and defeat is certain, insult your opponent.
That’s right. As my psychiatrist tells me, n
These days, it’s no longer enough to come out with a kickass game.
Take the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, as an example. While other games are content to come out with exclusives like limited weapon models, characters or even cheesy T-shirts, Activision and Treyarch went one step further.
For the first Modern Warfare series, the Ultimate Collector’s edition included a pair of real, working night-
If you’ve ever played the Grand Theft Auto series, you may think you are prepared for Rockstar‘s more recent western-style game, Red Dead Redemption. If you have ever thought this, you are wrong. Red Dead Redemption differs greatly from the Grand Theft Auto Series, and you will need the essential tips I am about to give you in order to survive and conquer in this hardcore game.

Even if you’ve played Super Mario Galaxy over and over, you’ll find its sequel packed full of surprises.
Galaxy 2 is an explosion of great ideas. The Mario team was hands-on in polishing the game’s central play mechanics with levels that work best with the radical design and setting changes. Mario jumped to a universe full of tiny planetoids, instead of exploring the usual 3D action game worlds. A
The following are tips which can easily help you become a better StarCraft II player:
1. Keep a strong economy
Use the advantages of your race. For instance, if you are Terran, then you should be using your energy on Mules at the Orbital Command. If you are Protoss, you should be using Chrono Boost at first to get Probes more quickly. But if you are Zerg, then spawn multiple Drones at a time.
2. Always produce com
Competitive fighting games are more than just quick reflexes, twitch timing and the impressive ability to memorize button sequences that do insane amounts of damage. Fighting games, more than perhaps any other genre, have a very strict, very hardcore metagame.
What is the “metagame?” In essence, it is the game outside of the game. This is where awareness of things that are not inherently part of the gam
