Just because it was the last title from the Activision-Blizzard fallout to be picked up, WET doesn't deserve to be ignored. Just because the graphics are mainly brown and lack detail, WET doesn't deserve to be ignored. Just because the developer, A2M, made the atrocious, licence-tainting Indiana Jones & The Staff of Kings, WET doesn't deserve to be ignored. Sorry, I irritated even myself when I was generating that hollow repetition-for-effect spew, but this should give you an idea of the internal conflict that you'll experience when playing WET.
Never ones to shy away from a bit of publicity, at a Valve Left 4 Dead 2 event held today in London, passers by got a little more than they bargained for.
Well, a couple of guys dressed up as zombies seems appropriate, but they can also be a little disconcerting when chasing people down the street. The event was held to promote Valves latest shooter, despite a vigorous out cry from the ...

Who would have expected such an outrage over something that in reality is not that big a deal. In fact if you stop waving your petition for five minutes you may start realising that a sequel to last years phenomenal zombie FPS is some of the best news of the year.
Valve are an industry leader when it comes to creating compelling game experiences and making sure their community is one of the best looked after out there. It must have come ...
For a special feature on storytelling in videogames in issue 49 of X360, on-sale 12/08/09, I sent some questions over to Lead Designer on Pandemic's The Saboteur, Tom French. These are his narrative-centric responses:

If one thing can be taken away from this years E3, it's that neither Sony or Microsoft are prepared to go down without a fight. The fact that now publishers like Activision are getting in on the act just shows how only now are we beginning to see rifts throughout the games industry.
With rumours of new consoles, price drops and those crazy motion controls it feels like the console industry has now finally changed. No longer will there be life cycles ...
Well, obviously we know nothing about Halo Reach because Bungie are keeping tight lipped at the moment. But that doesn't mean we can't make some educated guesses. Below are some of our 'educated' attempts at pre-empting what exactly Halo Reach could be:
FPS: Sounds obvious this one, but Reach is more than likely going to be a first person shooter. The Halo universe is best explored that way (no one mention Halo Wars *cough*) and it's a genre Bungie are totally comfortable ...
