Gotta say this game is the one I am most looking forward to this year. Tim Schafer is one of the best game designers in the industry and created one of the greatest games, Psychonauts. Thus when I saw this trailer I was very excited for the gifts it would bring me. What's most interesting is the fact that it is narrated like a movie, not a video game; however it made it look all the better. I beli... more.

I was thinking the other day about the holiday season and how a ton of great games always come out. That also made me think about what games that I bought back then I am still playing today.

It appears to be that time of the year again for cryptic messages to be played out in the form of videos. We all lust for new information about the latest game we crave, and developers seem all to eager to oblige. However, developers love to give us information in a much more sinister manner, the teaser. The teaser was made to torture fans by giving them more questions than answers. Anyway, the As... more.

The guys over at Joystiq managed to capture some nice footage of a challenge room in the upcoming Batman game. Looks to be coming along very nicely, and definitely appears to be a different kind of Batman/Superhero game.
