Who could be throwing their hat into the console ring?

Posted Mar 4, 2012 at 10:15AM EST by Harrison E Listed in: PC Gaming Tags: Gabe Newell, GDC, steam box, steam rumors

Valve could be announcing Steam Box at GDC

What in the hell is Valve doing?

GDC is going on at the moment and I have a few friends checking it out, pitching games and showing off their work but with all the rumours flying around at the San Fran convention, I'd hate to be a Valve employee right now.

The great big PC developer and probably one of the only game studios who I respect and will follow till they release Half Life 3 and with the idea of making a console, looks like I better start saving up.

Steam Box is the tentative title that everyone is dubbing it on the interwebs but i tlooks like Valve may throw their hat into the console ring and I think that the only way it will sell is if they make Half Life 3 exclusive to PC and their console...it will be the highest selling console ever.

The rumours were fueled that the company have been toying with the idea of creating a proper set-top console that could pose a threat to not only current-gen but next-gen consoles. Valve co-founder recently told the guys at Penny Arcade that if they had to sell hardware, they will. This could easily just have meant Valve branded graphics cards or just some cool memorabilia like keyboards, mice or even headphones but if they make Steam Box...the world of video games may change forever.

Game Developers Conference is on and people are talking...

Louvre to Use the Nintendo 3DS for Tours

Posted Dec 20, 2011 at 1:00PM EST by Listed in: Nintendo 3DS Tags: 3ds alternative uses, 3ds museum tours, nintendo 3ds louvre

The world-renowned museum is replacing its old-fashioned audio tours with 5,000 Nintendo 3DS units, all of which will include custom developed content.

Audio tours are one of the most interesting ways to browse a museum. With headphones in ear, you can often learn much more about the work you’re browsing than you would by wandering around the museum and conducting your own research. It’s certainly more engaging. However, audio tours may be an endangered activity; museums across the world are looking for ways to improve the interactivity of their exhibits beyond simple headphones.

In Paris, for example, the Louvre has recently announced that it will be replacing its existing audio tours with 5,000 Nintendo 3DS devices. The handhelds will contain special content developed by the Louvre with the help of Nintendo, and will serve to help visitors find their way around the museum and interact with the works of art on display. The devices will also come packed with pre-built itineraries that allow users to explore works by theme and age group.

Apparently, only four percent of Louvre visitors take advantage of the current audio tour system – the museum hopes that offering more familiar and engaging technology will encourage patrons to jump deeper into the experience (and spend a bit more money).

It’s an interesting move, one other museums may mimic if it turns out to be effective. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Would you take a 3DS-guided tour through the Louvre?

Capcom Talks Resident Evil Revelations Raid Mode

Posted Oct 31, 2011 at 5:58PM EST by Listed in: Nintendo 3DS Tags: resident evil revelations raid mode, resident evil: revelations

The games giant talks about a special mode found in the latest title in the Resident Evil series, and why gamers will want to play it.

Resident Evil: Revelations is an important title for the Nintendo 3DS. It’s one of the few top-notch games that are headed to the device that aren’t also proprietary brands or based entirely on taking care of fake animals, so Capcom and Nintendo both need to get it right. Though the 3DS has been seeing better sales as of late, strong software choices will help to keep this improvement going.

Resident Evil: Revelations is very much a Resident Evil game, with zombies, monsters and a variety of survival horror traditions, but Capcom is also looking to make the game a little more flexible. They’ve officially announced what they’re calling “Raid Mode,” which is a special game mode in which one or two players are given a set of missions and objectives and graded on completion. The points earned in Raid mode are then used for weapon and character upgrades.

It sort of sounds like the Spec Ops mode in Modern Warfare 2 (and maybe Black Op? I didn’t play that one), where there are short, targeted missions with specific time and points goals.

Here’s what assistant producer had to say about it:

"The story mode in the game is something we created with the single-player experience in mind. I would like everyone to play the game in their bedroom with the lights off and headphones on. That's the way to experience the mode.

At the same time, these games we create, we know they're really enjoyable when you're able to share some of that experience with a friend. Multiplayer is very important and that communication is something that resonates with everyone. We felt putting Raid Mode in, in this kind of structure, allowed us to do that for this game as well.”

Raid mode will function via Wi-Fi and the web and borrows levels from the solo campaign, but we’ll just have to see if it’s a viable multiplayer experience. I think the hard part would likely be finding someone else with a 3DS.

How do you feel about multiplayer in Resident Evil? It’s worked okay in the past, but is it right for the 3DS?

Vote for Your Favorite Blizzcon Costume

Posted Oct 31, 2011 at 2:09PM EST by Listed in: MMORPG Tags: Blizzard, BlizzCon, blizzcon costume contest, Mike Morhaime

If you didn’t make it to Blizzcon, you can still enjoy some of the festivities by voting on your favorite costume from its legendary costume contest.

The Blizzcon costume contest is probably the most fun event of the weekend. Costumes that run the gamut from incredible to hilarious are all on display, and the judges often have a tough task in deciding a winner. Now that Blizzcon is wrapped up, Blizzard is giving fans the opportunity to participate in an online costume contest by voting on the Blizzcon costumes they liked the most.

Here’s the rundown on the contest, straight from Blizzard:

We’re giving 20 contestants we weren’t able to recognize at BlizzCon a second chance at sartorial glory, by offering you a chance to vote on your favorites. We’ve added images of each contestant to a brand-new Costume Contest Voting Gallery. Each contestant’s picture is marked with a number. That’s where you come in; just make note of the number belonging to your favorite costume, then head over to our poll to cast your vote.

The costumes that earn the most votes will earn a chance at some impressive loot, including cash prizes of $1,000, $750, and $500. Runners-up will receive a SteelSeries prize package that includes 5H V2 Headphones, a 7G Keyboard, and an Ikari Optical Mouse or a World of Warcraft virtual pet package that includes Lil' Ragnaros, Moonkin Hatchling, Lil' K.T., Pandaren Monk, and Lil' XT.

You can check out the gallery by clicking this link. Hey, it’s not like you have anything important to do today, right? I’m partial to the Minecraft paladin, but I’d also really like to take contestant #4 out on a date.

Which costume do you think is the coolest?

If you didn’t make it to Blizzcon, you can still enjoy some of the festivities by voting on your favorite costume from its legendary costume contest.
