The 'Father of Video Games' Reflects on His 40-Year-Old Invention - Kasia Cieplak-Mayr von Baldegg - Video - The Atlantic

If there's a semantic argument even more aimless than "are games art?" , it's "…but is it a game in the first place?" The question has swirled around a couple of our reviews this week, and will no doubt rear its head again next week on the release of CyberConnect2's gloriously unhinged Asura's Wrath - a madcap interactive anime whose superficial resemblance to a technical action game has wrong-footed a lot of people.

Happy Easter holidays! As per usual, we SDA folk carry some tasty speedrunning gifts. So, what better game to start the give-away with than Super Mario 64 ? And if the caliber of the game wasn't enough to satisfy your palate, then surely the category this new run is on will: a non-assisted 0 stars run! 'FunilaSM64' managed to do what I will readily admit I thought impossible in just 0:06:41 , which is now the fastest time on that game page. Quite remarkable - if you want to know more, there are some Japanese-only comments there too. http://speeddemosarchive.com/
http://www.fmsuomi.com/ Joukkue esiintyi kauden alussa hieman sekavasti ja haki itseään, mutta yllättävän nopeasti omaksuivat kuvion. Miller & Siguroarson tekivät todella tuhoisaa jälkeä ja velikonja tuki taustalla. Kokoonpano pysyi paljolti samana, pieniä muutoksia lukuunottamatta. League Cupista putoaminen oli ikävä isku ja se harmittaa vietävästi. Lainalle koitan saada vielä muutaman pelaajani jotta saisivat peliaikaa ja kehittyisivät.

Legend of Grimrock Blog

Wait, what happened to release candidate 2? Well, we have been busy working day and night and we actually did two releases this week. The latest build or “RC3″ as we like to call it has now been sent to testers and if any issues are not found in the next couple of days this will be the gold build! Fingers crossed!

Legend of Grimrock Preview - Page 1

Drawing a wealth of knowledge from the good book of 1980s-era dungeon crawling 101, the folks over at Almost Human, Ltd . know their chops when it comes to exploring dank corridors, sticking it to drippy-mawed beasts, and scavenging for scraps of gear needed to survive. The indie studio's upcoming Legend of Grimrock is absolutely awash in old-school nostalgia, channeling the spirit that made classics like Eye of the Beholder and Dungeon Master so hard to step away from as a kid. But pushing deep into the monster-filled innards of the game's ominous subterranean realm during my hands-on time revealed much more to this dungeon crawler RPG than mere retro charm. 4 on 4.
