In late 2008, John Landis was tapped to write the Fallout 3 review for RipTen. His original submission was rejected and instead we published a more, “traditional” review. In hindsight however, what follows is probably one of the absolute best game reviews that we have ever seen … enjoy.

Blizzard has just announced that their new RealID system, which you can read about here, is now not only going to allow you to talk to your friends no matter what faction, server, or (blizzard) game their playing on, but will now be used as …

Tweet I’m not much of a news guy, so I don’t do news.  I can’t keep track of what is going on in my own life, let alone what other people are doing.  Sometimes, however, things come to my attention that just irritate me or people will need to be put in their place.  Since [...]

Tweet What do you get when you take Diablo 2, make the plot even more undecipherable and convoluted, and make random loot even more important?  You get Sacred 2, a great game to play if you don’t care about anything other than mindlessly killing monsters because they happen to be in a circle on your [...]

Tweet BattleForge is a PC game that blends so many genres and games into on big-assed acronym your head will spin.  So get your neck brace ready to find out if the world’s first MMORPGRTSCCG is as awesome as the letters make them sound, or is EA just a genius at figuring out ways to [...]

Tweet I’ve never been a RTS fan, especially when the genre tries to break into the console market.  At best there is a distinct sense of a lack of control in the game, and at worst it’s unplayable.  Obviously, any excitement for Halo Wars was lost on me.  Recently, however, I got to reminiscing about [...]

Tweet Unless you’re living under a rock, I’m sure that you’ve heard about Fallout 3 and how awesome it is.  If there is any doubt, or you just want some more to read about the game because your sickeningly addicted to it, then feel free to absorb my words as they project into your eyeballs [...]

Tweet Having not ever been an owner of a PS3 or PSP, I wasn’t aware of the bias that retailers are showing towards the “black” console.  One of the guys that I work with is a huge PlayStation fan.  Not a fanboy, mind you, but a normal person who happens to like the PS3 over [...]

Tweet Fable II is one of those games that some people have been waiting for even before the original was released.  Peter Molyneux tried as hard as he could to keep things low key, but try as he might, the hype machine just could not be stopped.  So, does the game live up to expectations [...]

Tweet I know, lots of ladies are going to be upset, but it looks like Destroy all Humans: Big Willy Unleashed for the PSP has been canceled.

Tweet No, this has nothing to do with the game or the movie, but who cares! An article over at The Cut Scene hints that Sony Pictures, the IP owners of a certain Ghostbustin’ franchise, are still very much planning on releasing the Ghostbusters game, but… pretty much didn’t say anything but that. The Cut [...]

Tweet Sony Computer Entertainment America’s VP of product marketing, Scott Steinberg, in an interview over at Gameindustry.biz, has stated that he thinks more and more developers will be switching to the PS3 as their foremost development console, and that will be making multiplatform games better as a result.

Tweet Peter Molyneux indicates how many days it would have taken him to create Earth. There is an interview over at GameTrailers with Peter Molyneux that has some pretty interesting stuff about Fable 2… and beyond. The highlights include more discussion about the co-op and how that all works, as well as what I like [...]
