Burning rubber, dodging cops and collecting coins. It sounds like a game of Grand Theft Auto but that's not what this article is about.

GameStop iOS Trade-Ins Exceeding Expectations

Posted Dec 30, 2011 at 4:35PM EST by Listed in: iPad Tags: GameStop, ios, ipad, iphone, ipod

The retailer’s fledgling iPhone/iPad/iPod trade-in market is apparently flourishing.

Earlier in the year, GameStop announced that it would begin taking trade-ins of iOS devices like iPods and iPads. The initial response was mixed, as it was hard to determine whether device owners would actually bring their hard-won devices into GameStop to trade for systems or games, especially given he company’s reputation for sticking it to trade-in customers.

According to GameStop, however, there’s no room for debate – the program has been a massive success. Company president Tony Bartel issued a statement declaring that the new service had “exceeded expectations,” and noted that GameStop was expecting a big rush in the post-holiday season due to gamers trading in old devices replaced by new gifts.

GameStop is by no means the only company that accepts iOS for trade, but it was a bold move for a retailer that focuses exclusively on gaming. Naturally, the company will need to continue to branch out as digital distribution becomes more and more viable – the trade-in market is the most valuable aspect of their business and will keep them solvent for years to come if they can stay on top of trends.

Would you trade your iPad in at GameStop?

All Aboard Train Conductor 2: USA review

All Aboard - Train Conductor 2: USA review

Voxel Agents new game has just hit the Android market and you better get on track.

I recently got an Android phone - my first smartphone - and whilst I was glad to have a navigational tool and have something to help me on my way, I was also looking forward to playing some of the games I'd constantly heard about. The games for the android aren't really dissimilar from those on the iPhone, but hey, I have an Android and I'm loving it, so why not check out a few games?

However, I was stumped from the get go, most of them I had heard in passing or were on the iTunes store, so I was drawing a blank. I eventually heard someone mention a new game called Train Conductor 2, a game by Australian Developers Voxel Agents. I was a bit hesitant at first, I mean how much fun can conducting trains really be.

The game is in the vein of games such as Flight Control, not just for it's transportation aspect, but also it's game mechanics of moving your desired mode of concern to where it's meant to be. I was going to get Flight Control, but I remembered that I'd purchased it off Steam some time ago and think that was enough. Flight Control is a bit repetitive and the music - while catchy - can be a bit repetitive. Train Conductor 2, never has that problem.

I often praise games with great sound and music, but I always feel like some games just capture the spirit of where it's set or where they're coming from when it comes to the sound design and music, TC2 definitely has that . The game takes place in the greatest country in the world: America - if you didn't get that from the title. You play a train conductor in Miami, initially and you have the cool sounds of a breeze and the gulls then a nice bit of funk begins to play as you're told by a red-headed girl that you will need to make sure these trains get to where they're going.

It's as simple as that, four tracks, several trains, no time limit and you have to make sure they don't crash into one another. The game is quite leanient with close calls with the game which add to the excitement, but if your trains are going to crash, they will crash. The game relies on fast reflexes and strategy, as you see one track light up, you may have to stop another train in it's tracks on number 4, just so you can slide the next one in from number 2, but wait, there's another one coming from number 1, what do you do then?

The game's difficult curve is mixed with over 7 different levels, as each level is barely similar to the last. The Miami level focuses on you making sure you can just maneouvre your trains from one track to the next, but once it becomes dark, the night takes over the game. Ghosts and Aliens roam the American countryside messing with your trains. These are my favourite levels as they aren't restricted to the game's toughest mechanic of crossing trains while making a move. The ghosts and demon trains will simply float through one another and it is magnficent during the challenge maps to see ten of them flow perfectly to where they're going in just a matter of seconds.

The game looks fantastic and has 3-D trains on a fairly 2-D background, but there's always something going on. During the Miami level, a shark swims under the bridged tracks, during the Roswell level, you'll see agents come and go and during the New York level, the underground can be quite lively. The game really situates itself with it's location and even though it kind of uses stereotypes, it never really detracts from the game. It's a bit like if they sat down with a big whiteboard and started with a bunch of levels and then just listed everything they could about those cities. Oh and finally, the character design of the girl is incredibly well-done and cute even. But during the Seattle level, she seems to have a minor crazy streak when you run over a yeti, saying I don't know what that was "but I liked crushing it."

In fact, I tried doing the tutorial later on to show someone she said that and she followed it up with "I feel like a sandwich," despite the lack of voices I feel like they have her character, if a bit mentally skewed, down to a T. Oh and there's also some evil guy during the ghost levels, but I think he just runs an old amusement park and is getting away with it, due to a lack of meddling kids.

The game looks like a triple-A title from the guys at Rovio or Half-Brick but it's just an indie studio here in Australia. The game's design and music is never boring or ever a problem, and levelling up to the next map is never a chore as it accumulate's how many trains you've conducted over the entire game. The levels do get a little bit out there at times with the paranormal levels such as the Seattle level where yeti-like creatures hide in the snow and block your path. I was half expecting Bigfoot to slowly come in Frogger style and cause havoc with the tracks and then you'd have to fix them.

The game has some strong leaderboards, even with a few thousand downloads and I cannot reccommend this any more than I have above. I know I'm usually meant to critique these games harshly but I feel like this is one of those games that just knows everything about what it's doing. The only criticism I have is that I wish there were more levels and that there were a Free trial version for iPhone users. I think the game is almost perfect, even for just a mobile game, I could imagine it being a great little XBLA or Steam game that you could smack on for a few minutes and enjoy yourself.

Voxel Agents new game has just hit the Android market and you better get on track.

LA Noire creator to make Whore of the Orient

LA Noire creator to make Whore of the Orient

Brendan McNamara is heading to the Orient.

LA Noire is still one of my favourite games of the year. Seemlessly blending the classic point and click adventure style with a brand new stylised action and some amazing graphics, which all play into the gameplay carefully. Sure the game does have a few drawbacks, but not enough for Brendan McNamara to stop working.

His next game is going to be called Whore of the Orient, which may or may not go through title changes before the game even starts to be developed. The game will be developed with KMM, an Australia studio owned by George Miller, who you may know as the director of those films about penguins or about Mel Gibson in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Speaking of Mad Max, McNamara will also be developing a game based on the fourth film, which has been in development hell for over a decade, with the subtitle Fury Road. Miller says he is finally doing the film "after years of resisting the impulse" and also three family friendly films that have grossed over a hundred million dollars worldwide. Miller has gone on the record saying "Multi-platform, that's the thing", explaining "Create once; publish many times, on multiple platforms. You create a world and then you go in to all the different platforms - your iPhone, your iPad, on the net," I doubt he's talking about ARG, but merely just multiple ports.

But that's not the only reason, recently in Australia, our culture and arts funding just went through the roof. Whilst it isn't helping to fund theatre all too much, the future is in video games and KMM's co-found Doug Mitchell couldn't be more pleased to immediately go forward with the two games, thanks to "government support."

Mitchell also noted that whilst Australia doesn't have a big games sector, the "potential in the video games sector is massive," he says. He also notes that it's a 60 billion dollar industry that's fast-tracking towards 90 billion. He compares the film industry with costs being around 170 million with more to advertise it and the fact games can be made at 10% of the budget and marketing is often word of mouth.

Mitchell mentioned LA Noire saying that they sold 3 million units with $135 million net revenue, nice to see to being able to use that dead horse after everyone's beaten it to death. Whilst there's not much info on the Orient, McNamara spoke with Eurogamer last month saying "It's pretty interesting. It's one of the great untold stories of the twentieth century," he said. "So I think it'll be good."

GameStop Wading into Tablet Sales

Posted Oct 29, 2011 at 5:01PM EST by Listed in: iPad Tags: GameStop, ipad, tablet pcs

The brick and mortar juggernaut looks to expand its business offerings as it tries to adapt to a future in which games will increasingly be available via direct download.

Gamers have a love/hate relationship with GameStop. On the one hand, GameStop is a monstrous corporate entity that pays pennies on the dollar for trade-in games and uses harsh tactics to reap a mountain of sales that don’t really benefit developers or publishers. On the other, it’s often very convenient to drop into a GameStop, trade in a few old games and pick up something new.

But GameStop, like most retailers, faces an entire new world of online competition. The world of video games is especially fast moving, with a large number of purchases now going to direct downloads instead of brick and mortar retail chains. GameStop seems to be aware of the trend, and is adding new services in the hopes of balancing out its business model.

Starting this holiday season, GameStop will try a new program in 200 U.S. stores in which it sells tablet PC devices. The store will offer only Android tablets at first, from manufacturers like Samsun, Acer and Asustek. They’re not straying too far from their gaming roots, packing seven free games (Dead Space!) in with each tablet and creating a special wireless controller to interact with each device.

My friend and I were actually in a GameStop last week (she was looking for some old DS game) and noticed that they’re now accepting iPad trade-ins, so maybe this is just the first step in an entirely new business model. If they want to keep their profits high, they have to find revenue other than software.

Of course, this also brings them one step closer to their pawnshop reputation, but we’ll just have to see how it plays out.

Would you buy a tablet at GameStop, or have your experiences with the company soured you to the brand?

Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nations Coming to Android/iOS

Posted Oct 25, 2011 at 3:21PM EST by Listed in: iPhone Tags: Gameloft, modern combat 3, modern warfare 3

Gameloft drops a brand new FPS title to your phone or tablet, bearing a pretty familiar moniker and dancing with Activision’s legal devils.

If you’re following game news (and you’re reading this, so I assume you are), you’re probably familiar with a little title abbreviated as MW3. Activision’s latest entry in the Call of Duty franchise is going to be a sales juggernaut and there’s not much anyone can do to stop it. Gameloft seems to have another idea: capitalize on the hype with a similar looking and sounding game. The title, Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nations, is a fully realized FPS aimed at your Android or iOS device later on this week.

The game features a wide array of multiplayer maps, customizable weapons and more than a few perks that will be familiar to the Modern Warfare crowd, such as Sleight of Hand for quicker reloads and scoping. Modern Combat 3 is set for an October 27th release, though it’s important to remember that Gameloft titles usually drop for iOS devices a few days before they hit the Android market. Either way, you’ll be able to play it eventually.

Modern Combat 3 boasts full online play with stats tracking and leaderboards. The game supports matches of up to 12 players and plays out a lot like Call of Duty, with death match and capture games making up the bulk of the experience. If you’re looking for a console-like shooter on your Android device or your thing that starts with a lowercase “i,” this may be the game for you.

What’s really amazing to me is how Gameloft has managed to thrive without being obliterated by lawsuits. I guess as long as they dance around the copyright effectively, they don’t have much to worry about. It’s not like EA or Activision owns the FPS genre, and most shooters are pretty generic nowadays.

Do you think phones and tablets can provide a satisfying FPS experience? There are some that claim consoles can’t even do it right, I shudder to think of how they feel about the iPad. Even high action Wii games are shrugged off as sloppy.
