To promote the release of Dragon Age 2 in Europe at the end of this week, Electronic Arts unleashed a horde of giant reptiles on the streets of the United Kingdom today. Of course, because Dragons don’t actually exists, the promotion had to settle for what appear to be some species of monitor lizard. Each of these creatures was strapped to a tiny cart packed with copies of the game, then set loose to deliver the games to terrified customers waiting in line outside electronics retailers.

After the tragic rape of a Michigan girl by a man she met while playing the online game Runescape, Siff and the NBC New York newsteam took it upon themselves to warn their viewers (Who live hundreds of miles away) that “Predators Approach Kids Through Video Games“!

Console Exclusives We Want On PC – Heavy Rain

March 8, 2011 | | PC Features

Many of the problems PC gamers face, such as bugs, computer crashes, and broken power supplies, are generally solved in two ways. One way, we can throw money at the problem, and buy new computer parts or pay for help. The second, more preferable way, is to spend hours solving the problem in a cost efficient or free manner. However, there’s one problem that no matter how much money we throw at it, or how much time we spend begging developers to solve it, it just doesn’t work. Console exclusive games. These games are very irritating and tempting at the same time, so it can be easy to fantasize about the perfect port to complement your game library.

Red Faction Armageddon Preview

March 7, 2011 | | PC Features

I’m just going to come out and say it: Blowing stuff up is fun. Call me shallow, but there’s nothing quite like seeing a nice big fireball where a building, vehicle, or enemy previously stood. That being said, 2009’s Red Faction: Guerilla was a fairly standard third person shooter made special by it’s penchant for destruction on a grand scale, and a completely destructible environment. Sure, games like Battlefield: Bad Company had done it before Guerilla, but Guerilla made your very objective to blow things up. Now, THQ is releasing a direct sequel to Guerilla called Red Faction: Armageddon, which replaces the oppressive Earth Defense Force for aliens which have been unleashed from so much digging under Mars’ crust.
