Atari's Haunted House returns to scare PC, Xbox 360 and Wii
Jul 16th 2010 11:16AM (Joystiq)Gamefly listings suggest Centipede and Star Raiders remakes
Jul 16th 2010 11:15AM (Joystiq)Also haunted house was one of my favourite atari games back in 82. god i'm showing my age. (36)
Dead Rising 2 'Outbreak Pack' staggering to Europe, Capcom 'not bringing' it to North America
Jul 11th 2010 9:36AM (Joystiq)EyePet Move Edition ... now in 3D!
Jun 16th 2010 7:48PM (Joystiq)MotorStorm: Apocalypse announced, racing to E3
Jun 11th 2010 8:24PM (Joystiq)Rumor: Motorstorm 3 screens look positively apocalyptic
Jun 6th 2010 7:52PM (Joystiq)And I can see them doing well with the new environments, I think they have earned our trust by now, they won't just make it 'city' racing it will be amazing taking motorstorm style into the city - open your minds people!
Review: Blur
Jun 4th 2010 10:31AM (Joystiq)Wouldn't be so bad if the gameplay was stunning, but it's quite terrible (just like the physics and handling). Running full speed into a lane divider only to come to a sudden 'halt' without any reaction that induces a sense of the real world is beyond lame.
Envrionments (from what I saw while I could still be bothered to play my Friend's version) were universally 'GENERIC' in the worst meaning of the word - save for the 'ruined track' look of one of them (the oval) - good idea but looks like it was run off by a first time developer.
I can't believe the hype this game got, can only assume it's another collusion by the industry to buoy the summer drought - I'm glad SOME have called it out for what it is. It feels just like one of those shoveware/budget games by no-name devs you used to pick up for $10.
And.. split second? Well it's much better than this for sure, but even that has the stench of 'almost budget title' about it - at least S/S feels like a game, a pure arcade game, fun in short doses.. Blur is just a mess. What were the devs thinking. PGR was 1000x better than this.
Blur's French TV spots are far from feminist

May 19th 2010 2:25AM (Joystiq)The 'carts felt more like top heavy double deck buses. A fault lots of modern mario kart wannabes make (inc later mario karts themselves). Carts will always feel more fun when low to the ground with masses of grip and great speed (apex to apex fun) - camera angles were also of the 'casual gamer' variety with no way to change it that I could see.
I'm hard to please I know but this could have been so much better, just needed some more care in design instead of tacking on the racing part to the creation part. I'm sure kids and those without jobs/lives will love it (due to having time to create more than race).

May 19th 2010 2:20AM (Joystiq)It's essentially working like a digital on/off (D-Pad) system but with a bit of analog esq speed of turn built in, it's not proper analog - possibly to cater to the stupid/casual crowd. All I know is it killed the fun after 2 goes, constantly correcting back to centre just to take a mild curve with a little stick.
Nice try devs but next time think of the gamers who can actually drive and not just soccer moms.
