I am a HUGE Star Wars Battlefront fan. I played those first two games for hundreds of hours. I loved those games. I even enjoyed the PSP games, the last one being really ambitious for a PSP game. So I was excited and nervous when I heard DICE, the studio best known for the Battlefield […]
Over the past couple years, video games have been getting mainstream attention on late night talk shows. It was a sign of the times when old timers were on the way out and the current hosts seemed more catered to the 18-41 year old demographic especially gamers.
