I’m not exactly a fan of what modern technology has meant for video games most of the time. With improved hardware capabilities always came graphics that tried to push the boundaries between the virtual and reality, while at the same time not quite getting there yet. Sure, it can work out real nice and a …

Games to Get: 2009 Edition
I think it’s time for a new list of (mostly upcoming) games that are worth a closer look. Since I was able to get most of the games in my previous list, I’ve added a whole bunch of new games I’m interested in. Maybe there’s something in for you, as well. This time it’s complete …
Craptastic Games From The Past
I did some digging today, saving old CD-ROMs by copying them to harddisk. Then I made an astonishing discovery – not only did I still have a backup of my second oldest homepage, but also of a couple of “games” I created when I was 14 or 15. Hilarity ensued. I’d like to present some …

News From the Downloadable Front
I’d like to present a couple of nice downloadable console games that have recently been released. Here’s a quick run-down:
1942: Joint Strike
I was looking forward to 1942: Joint Strike (Xbox 360) ever since it was first announced earlier this year. I finally downloaded it a couple of days ago and was eager to try it out right away. However, the game fell flat from my expectations. I really liked the older 1942 series games, especially 1942 …
Babel Babel released
Our Half-Life 2 Deathmatch mod Babel Babel is finished! Well, sort of. There’s still a bunch of bugs and unfinished stuff in it, but it’s playable. You can grab it over at the Babel Babel website.
Best Games Ever.
I re-activated my Mobygames account a couple of weeks ago and decided to add a list of my favourite games to my profile page there. It’s hard choosing only a couple of them, but here’s a list and my reasons why I included them, in no particular order. Maybe you’ll discover something new or have …
