Time to get excited and find a comfy spot to sit as you take in the official Max Payne 3 trailer. The launch trailer harks back to Max's tragic past as he reflects on the events that brought him from the remains of his life in New York to his lowest point yet: caught up in circumstances far beyond his control, out of his depth and on the edge in the darkest heart of Sao Paulo Brazil.
My wife watches a lot of shows that involve wealthy people being incredibly petty, nasty and generally hideous to each other. She claims that as a social worker and psychology student the show is fascinating to her. Personally it causes me to bleed from my tear ducts.
So I’m unsurprised to learn from a recent study that Real Housewife type shows create an unconscious aggressive response almost identical to that produced by playing violent video games.
If you've ever gazed upon concept art for Mass Effect or Dragon Age and thought, "Crikey, that's pretty damn awesome", then you're all ready a fan of Matt Rhodes and probably never knew it.
But one of his most impressive works is the strip viewable after the jump called My Hero which he created for the Anthology Project graphic novel series (which is very worthy of your money and viewable here). Seriously, your life will be better for having flicked through this comic strip. Go read it now.
What’s with the gaming guys? Asks a recent article by a Sydney Morning Herald columnist. With hands on hips, and a gosh, oh shucks demeanour, the journalist wonders aloud just what’s up with these crazy men who game on Saturday night and on the train with their phones and what not. Don’t they know they’re missing out on magical, fulfilling activities like socialising and passionate romances?
Gee whiz, those gamer guys and their games. When will they learn?
So I was going to type up a quick bit last Thursday about the Assassins Creed III artwork being leaked through a Gamestop newsletter.
Then the Game Informer cover dropped showing George Washington on the back cover flanked by troops, then the leaked screenshots, and the box art reveal, and the official webpage countdown. So screw it. Everything is after the jump if you want to see it.
Sometimes when you meet someone new, you instantly fall in love. They are charismatic, hilarious, super intelligent and reliable. It doesn't matter that they are a man and you are a man because of the word bromance. It's no longer 'gay' to say 'I love you, man'. But I bet Aaron Mitchell gets that lot.
From what I know about him - and considering I have met him twice and he lives on the other side of the country, that ain't much - he is a hard-working family man and hardcore geek. The good kind of geek. Not the ironic kind of geek and not the deviated septum kind of geek. The normal, internet-using, comic-book reading, cinema-loving, 21st century male human being. I also know he is a brilliant writer, and if I didn't know what the word 'prolific' meant before Aaron Mitchell started writing for That Aussie Game Site, I sure would now.
As indicated by the chart above, and certainly not to detract from our entire team of brilliant, past and present writers, the man is a writing machine with the uncanny ability to tell me whether I should or shouldn't play a game without boring me into a coma. He puts together weekly recaps of the gaming world full of information that I could get anywhere and EVERYwhere online. I am well informed when it comes to videogames, but I still read Aaron's articles. I'm sure a lot of you still read Aaron's articles.
So, it is with great pleasure that I announce stage one of a That Aussie Game Site re-brand - our revised logo in the top left-hand corner. One that centres around Aaron Mitchell. One that shines a spotlight on an electronic entertainment writer who deserves it.
From all of us at That Aussie Game Site and on behalf of our reader base we say, Thank you Aaron Mitchell...now say, "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
So, my Fiance is turning 31 this year and while we try to establish birthday 'budgets' every year, I can never stick to them. I feel money spent greatly outweighs effort put in. Further to that, she's turning 31, which is way worse than turning 30...it's 30 plus 1 year. Her birthday is March 8. Mass Effect 3 drops March 8.
I will either be stone broke or dealing with a very emotional birthday girl. Oh, who am I kidding? I will be both. What I won't be doing, is playing Mass Effect 3.
For all you lucky people out there who have nothing better to do than to play my most anticipated game for 2012, below is the latest trailer for Mass Effect. It's the extended cut Take Earth Back trailer that you may have seen earlier in the week.
I haven't watched it yet. I just can't do it to myself.
Last week on the 9th of February Adam Adamowicz passed away from cancer. I didn't know the mans name until I read his obituary on Joystiq which is utterly shameful as I'm a huge fan of his work. I spent most of the last few years completely lost in a world he designed and so far a great deal of this year lost in another world of his design. Adam was a conceptual artist for Bethesda games and the lead artist for Fallout 3 and Skyrim.
While Todd Howard is the name we automatically link as the creative force behind these titles it's clear from the art below that Adam did a lot of work to define the look and feel of the worlds he worked in. Cancer is an absolute bastard of a disease, no question. Adam and his contributions will no doubt be missed by millions of fans alongside his friends and family.
