Gaming is moving into 3-Dimensions, is the industry ready?
With Avatar landing a huge nine Oscar nominations and taking the movie industry by storm (currently the biggest film of all time) 3D is the next big thing. With Avatar: The Videogame making a substantially smaller splash, is the industry ready for 3D gaming? We talk to Avatar: The Videogame's executive producer Patrick Naud to find out a little bit more about 3D and how it's going to revolutionise gaming in the future...

The worst 360 games of all time... ever... so far
Someone had to do it, we take a look back at some of the lowest scoring 360 games we've ever had the misfortune of putting in our disc drives. Together with our sister site Nowgamer.com, we bring you some of the worst games we've ever played...
Fusion Frenzy 2
"Even with online play, we really can’t recommend Fuzion Frenzy 2 on any level. The mini-games are poor, the AI is medically insane ...
After an extended period of, well, nothing, it has emerged that Codemasters have finally cancelled 60s criminal offering Hei$t…
Ummm, really? But what about my PSP?
In case you missed it, last night Apple revealed the future of computing and technology and that future is a pad. The iPad, from what we can gather is a big ipod touch, sort of. It'll probably be much more powerful and have tons of Aps and what not, but what does all this mean for gamers? If you've invested in Apple's iPhone you may already have some idea. No one would have thought the ...
In obvious news today, EA have announced the release of their ubiquitous World Cup commemoration game, schedules for release in April…
I consider myself quite a thrifty (read: cheap) shopper when videogames are concerned. Pre-ordering a game on one website, only for another to sell it cheaper later on results in a slightly hazardous shopping experience – well, as hazardous as using a mouse and keyboard can be, at any rate.
With news regarding Halo: Reach literally pouring out of the Internet, it's safe to say that Bungie's evolved combat series is as popular as ever. Despite critical success cooling with each subsequent release, the Halo franchise has arguably gone from strength to strength. Now, with it's own online portal giving gamers direct access to Halo content, Waypoint is the first of its kind.
X360 caught up with 343 Industries franchise development director, Frank O’Connor and lead producer Jason Pace to find ...
Capcom's multimillion-selling Monster Hunter franchise is coming to 360 in Japan, the publisher announced yesterday.
As is my wont, many hours were spent over the weekend getting up to speed on the areas that are inevitably neglected during busy periods such as, well, the end of last year…
DICE you tease!
As DICE and EA gear up for the release of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, X360 caught up with executive producer on the project, Karl-Magnus Trodesson, to ask about DICE's future and the possibility of a Mirror's Edge sequel...
"I can't really comment on that because we haven't officially announced that we're working on it" explains Karl. "But we were very happy and proud of Mirror's Edge one as a studio, so we are thinking about what we are going to ...
I've completed Mass Effect 2. Actually, I completed it about a month ago, during the Christmas break. Shortly before my playthrough of the game, BioWare announced that it would be released on two discs instead of one. Rather than utilising the traditional disc-swapping method, however, the RPG uses them in a slightly different way.
It has been announced today that a grand total of 17 Billion hours have been spent by gamers on Xbox Live, ever since the service launched on the Original Xbox. That sounds like a pretty impressive figure, but we reckon at least 25% or so of this figure will have been achieved thanks to pure idleness. After all, how many times have you just left your console running, either on the dashboard or whatever game while you made tea or, ybe, ...
We're good thanks, don't trouble yourselves...
In case you didn't already hear, Tony Hawk's Ride was a massive disappointment and a total mess of a game. Taking what should have been an excellent idea and forming the most bare bones of a game around it, and then developing a peripheral that doesn't work the way it should and you end with an experience that boarders on that really wasn't worthy for shop shelves.
That's why developer Robomodo are currently hard at work on ...
