Steve Foster, Sales and Marketing Manager of Sony Europe, was in Cape Town recently and Gideon Nieuwoudt of iAfrica.com managed to get an interview with him and Lana-Jane Pike of Ster Kinekor games…. The entire 5 page interview is very interesting even though no ground breaking information was revealed, Steve admitted that Sony didn’t look at South Africa before releasing here which is no …

November 23, 2007 - 18 years ago

Yahtzee never published a Zero Punctuation this week since he managed to score a free trip to Valves studios…. lucky bugger… Anyway don’t worry, remember reading a few weeks ago that Yahtzee has actually created his own game… well as to be expected someone has decided to review his game in the true Zero Punctuation style… While it is not …

Ubisoft Reloads For Rainbow Six: Vegas 2

By Gavin Mannion
November 23, 2007 - 18 years ago

First off, is it just me or does Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 just sound like a dumb name? Not that I am complaining to hard as R6: Vegas is still one of my favourite games to play. The ending was annoying as hell but I did thoroughly enjoy getting to the end and playing terrorist hunts is still a nice …

Yeah I know it was yesterday but I just never managed to get around to it… Anyway on the 22nd of November 2005 the Xbox 360 was released into the American market to a lot of fanfare. While the system itself got enough attention what was really groundbreaking was the official launch of the Xbox Live Arcade and marketplace at the same …

Call of Duty 4 not HD: only 600p – Who Cares

By Gavin Mannion
November 23, 2007 - 18 years ago

The guys over at Beyond3D.com have been at it again, after previously counting the Halo 3 pixels to prove that Halo 3 was not true HD it seems that the same issues are affecting Call of Duty 4. Call of Duty 4 only runs in 600p, which is great because it proves this nonsense about 720p,1080i and 1080p is absolute rubbish. Everyone …

Yeah didn’t think so, anyway dear old Jeff is the head of Llamasoft, the creators of Space Giraffe (hands up who actually paid for that) for the Xbox Live Arcade and other titles.

Half-Life 2: Orange Box PS3 Preview – Ouch

By Gavin Mannion
November 23, 2007 - 18 years ago

1UP has been given the opportunity of playing Orange Box on the PS3, as you may know the PS3 version is being developed by EA Games as Valve didn’t seem to want to do anything with it. After spending a significant amount of time with a near final version of the PS3 game, it’s apparent that this version suffers from …

So it seems the there has been some anger surrounding our lack of Guitar Hero III in South Africa. Especially in the local forums. In my quest to bring you moderately helpful news I decided to contact Megarom and find out why we are being left out of one of the biggest releases of the year. Guitar Hero III was …

All the Star Wars fans that own a Wii are gonna go ape on this one. 😀 Nintendo has released an addon for the Wii controller that effectively turns it into a lightsaber. It retails for 14.99 on play.com which is about $31. I don’t think this has hit SA shelves yet and I’m not sure whether it’s even gonna …

Someone has been a naughty boy and has snuck a video camera into a VIP screening of Warhound for the Xbox 360. You can see the guy is a journo and not a cameraman but he does manage to catch the essence of it all. The Menu looks very PS3like and hopefully they are going to still do a whole …
