Welcome back to another electrifying edition of Nintendo Voice Chat! A lot of Wii U and 3DS news has come to light since our last podcast – and by golly, we’re going to chat about it…
Quite some time ago, what was once a niche hobby took a giant leap forward, one that would change the medium forever. As gaming hardware became more powerful, a graphical shift took place. Two-dimensional, sprite-based games were largely set aside to m…
Creating a new generation of gaming hardware is a complicated process, and the system inevitably goes through many phases along the way. According to Team Ninja developer Yosuke Hayashi, this is especially true of Nintendo’s new home console, Wii U. Ni…
What legendary developer Shigeru Miyamoto does at Nintendo is rather unclear. Back in December this lack of clarity led to rumours of him stepping down from his role as Senior Managing Director and General Manager of Nintendo’s Entertainment Analysis a…
During a recent investor Q&A, legendary developer Shigeru Miyamoto fielded questions regarding Nintendo’s strategies for growing its internal development teams, and how he can effectively nurture his employees without taking away from his own work….
The arrival of Wii U marks a new era for Nintendo. That’s the message Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has been stressing for months, and in his company’s most recent meeting with investors, he emphasized it again…
While we got a small taste of what Zelda might be like on Wii U at last year’s E3 press conference, it will inevitably be a long while before we get a true look at Link’s first HD outing. But while the currently untitled Zelda Wii U is still a long way…
Going to a demo is a funny thing in and of itself. You’ve often got a roomful of PR people and the like staring at you intently as you try to learn the ropes of the game they’re showing off in a relatively short amount of time, all the while attempting…
From a distance, Nintendo would appear to be in some serious trouble. After stumbling with the launch of the 3DS, being forced to prematurely cut the portable’s price tag, fumbling the introduction of Wii U, not offering enough quality titles for much …
Guttenberg! Yes, it’s the IGN AU Pubcast – the world’s leading podcast on all things Police Academy… and gaming, movies, dolphin love… you know the drill by now!
This episode, we continue our ‘Police Academy Watch’ with a live update from the Poli…
Yeah, yeah...so i broke easier than a KitKat and bought my copy from Tescos (of all places) last night. Fortunately the wife was out so I had some quality time with me and my Playstation. I like Skyrim...a lot...and it's there that I see the problem coming. I already mentioned before how I am time poor ...
It's not often that I feel that I wish that I had nothing better to do than watch Jeremy Kyle before moving onto This Morning. Actually the idea of being a house husband is more and more appealing if games like Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim are coming out - that on top of all the ...
So despite my fear that Battlefield would take the crown I have had a weekend with Modern Warfare 3. Ugh! This is hard. OK I played a bit of the single player and ho hum, it is on rails FPS, with nothing really new - although it looks really nice with a few spectacular city ...
Time to get excited - check out down and out Nico from GTA 4 at 0.59 Seems like we are going back to Los Santos for round five of the best gangster series ever. From the trailer this looks better than ever. Loads of speculation as to who the main character is going to be - ...
I have loved football games from the days of sitting in a dirty, small, smoke filled student living room, playing drink fueled FIFA 96 games on the SEGA Megadrive. Since then I have had Striker, FIFA France '98, PES on the PS One, through to PES on the N64, PES 2-4 on the PS2 and FIFA '08, '09, ...
OK, so having had Battlefield 3 since the weekend, I have spent nearly every spare moment I have on the bloody thing. Lets cut to the chase this game is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! Alright the single player is nothing to write home about - it is linear and is made up from ok set pieces, but no-one ...
Battlefield 3 is on it's way - Amazon have it getting packed for delivery. Aaargh! if only I'd had the foresight to take Friday off work I could be shooting strangers in the face across the world by breakfast tomorrow. Just need to convince the other half that the PS3 is in charge on Saturday. Come ...
Its Batman, more Batman than Arkham Asylum, more super criminals and more, much much more. Batman is a dark violent (but he never kills!) vast game that spans a much larger area than the previous game. With 400 Riddler challenges, the Joker, Penguin, Mr Freeze, Harley Quinn, Croc and loads more there is soooo much to ...
Do you like cars...lots of cars, cars that you will never afford? Good then you can't get more car porn in one place anywhere else. Graphics are eyewateringly realistic with sheen on everything possible. This time round the CPU controlled cars actually seem to race you rather than follow a procession and it is a common ...
