I tried out the new map on the test servers and I'm very happy with the result of my first game!

Great Cyber Deal from Makro... In fact, around half of the items on their Cyber Sale are reflecting as costing more than they did previously: https://www.makro.co.za/www.makro.co.za/CyberMonday27Nov17

In case you hadn't noticed today is Black Friday /s Rampant consumerism is our primary import from the US and so Black Friday has become a South African favourite - including the madness: Let's just hope it doesn't reach the tragic levels of senselessness the Americans have reached. That...

I started playing one of the classic city builder games the other day, Zeus: Master of Olympus. Upon loading the game I could certainly tell that this was a game from the days of low resolution screens since the res options were betweeen 800x600 and 1024x768. Forunately a quick glance at the...

And I'm done! 81% complete so I may go back and snag a few collectibles, but all the tombs are done which is the main side-attraction. All in all I really enjoyed the game.

South Africa finally gets local Rocket League servers (Critical Hit article) It's time to jump back into some Rocket League again. They have finally launched servers in South Africa so we can play the game with less than a 180-200ms ping! I'm very keen to try it out and see what a difference...

I thought it may be interesting to see what kind of connections to the internet we are all running, and for a bit of fun, see how far we've come since our first, ridiculously slow, connections. What's current your connection speed? 40Mbps / 20Mbps (Down/Up) What type of connection is it? Fibre...

To all the games bundle addicts out there (our backlogs give us away), what is the best bundle that you have ever purchased? Which bundle has offered you the best value or enjoyment out of the selection of games that it contained? Tell us what was in the bundle, who it was from (Humble, Bundle...

I read 2 very interesting articles this morning about Indie games sales on Steam that provide two related but different perspectives: The first, Are indie games too cheap? talks about the difficulties that Indie developers face in pricing their games right. One of the most interesting parts of...

Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death is not a very well-known game. It has only reached an all time peak of 180 players simultaneously playing it on Steam and I've never seen it advertised on the Steam storefront. Despite this I happened to come across it in a random, also obscure, bundle and it...

I landed on this which despite the name is SFW: https://www.reddit.com/r/ruralporn/ Except for maybe this one picture I found there:

I'm very happy with the latest Humble Monthly's games. I got it for Rise of the Tomb Raider alone but the others (except The Shrouded Isle) were all either on my wishlist or games I had a passing interest in.

The Elastomania World Cup was apparently held recently (PC Gamer has an article on it) My memories of Elastomania are of playing it on the ancient school computers at the computer lab. I also recall playing at a LAN where we all tried to beat each others times - or even just finish the level...

Yes I did and so did most of the people in the game: There was even a match where NO ONE had good latency in the green. Not even one

I decided to give the COD WWII beta a try since it's been ages since I last played any Call of Duty and felt like a bit of the run and gun action. One thing I can say is that it underneath it all it's still pretty much the same. On a positive note you know what to expect and get that...

It's been a while since I last played an RTS considering they aren't as main stream as they used to be. I've been feeling like picking up one of the strategy titles in my backlog and getting back into it again. RPS did an article the other day on ...How to get into real-time strategy which has...

MyGame challenge complete! What an epic game! I have thoroughly enjoyed playing it. One of the highlights was definitely the Missing Link DLC section, but all in all I loved playing through this.

I've been thoroughly enjoying the latest MyGame, Deus Ex Human Revolution and there has been one moment in particular that is a small but very cool highlight for me. Making my way through a section I noticed that the security laser beams blocking off certain areas would turn off when a security...

There are games where we expect there to be a good story - particularly when it comes to RPG's and Adventure games. However not all games are all about the story, in those the story is a backdrop to the gaming action. But what about those games where we don't expect much of a story and yet the...

I broke out the old Sega Megadrive this weekend to run a new and retro gaming stall at our Church's craft market. And it's amazing how a particular sound/intro can bring back so many good memories. Hearing this brought me back to my childhood playing TV games: What sounds or theme songs take...
