  1. Game News Kerberos Kickstarts Kaiju-a-Gogo

    Even though SotS: the Pit and Ground Pounders are okay games, I don't really feel like throwing more money at Kerberos after the SotS 2 disaster.

  2. Game News Space Shock, the Grimrock In Space which became Arkania In Space, is now on Kickstarter

    I'll stick to the new Space Hulk for now.

  3. Information The Occult Chronicles: Cryptic Comet's New Boardgame Roguelike

    As long as Davis doesn't move on from shitty Windows-only Adobe Director as his development platform, that ain't happening. Why he insists using that instead of XNA or any of the bazillion other game dev frameworks out there is beyond me. I guess he doesn't care for retooling and learning whole...

  4. Review Cardboard Mutilation: Small World Series

    In the same vein, Risk Legacy is worthy of a review I suppose. Rex is definitely worth a look. Dune was excellent back in the days, and FFG seem to have successfully tweaked it to suit 2012 requirements (less downtime and play time overall). Titan is interesting. It's the closest thing to...

  5. Review Cardboard Mutilation: Small World Series

    I don't think Chaos in the Old World can be qualified as Ameritrash. It might the most Euro-stylish game ever published by FFG, if you exclude the Reiner Knizia game reissues. I would be careful of the extreme streamlining and abstraction of the Euro/German games. Most of these games I played in...

  6. Review Cardboard Mutilation: Small World Series

    We need more of these articles. What about discussing meatier games? Chaos in the Old World sounds like a great suggestion.

  7. Information XCOM: Enemy Unknown Has a Demo

    A PC turn-based strategy game that requires a pad to be played comfortably. Yep, definitely true to the original Firaxis.

  8. Game News Sword of Fargoal 2: Sequel to 1982 C64 Roguelike Kickstarted

    You're not alone. According to my own experience, I have a hard time believing people actually bought games during the 8-bit era.

  9. Editorial Are RPGs too long?

    I would say 'yes', but only because my attention span regarding games is indeed shorter. New games are released everyday and I tend to try out a lot of them and more often than not, I never go back to the game I started a week ago. The latest example would be Legend of Grimrock. Great game...

  10. Company News Tim Cain joins MCA over at Obsidian Entertainment

    So what about this MMO he's been working for ages at Carbine?

  11. Company News Bethesda Threatens Minecraft Creator Over Scrolls Name

    Scrolls has nothing in common with Minecraft except for Notch.

  12. Interview Skyrim Video Interview

    Maybe you guys should stop taking things so literally, and throwing insults to people without any good reason. My point was that whatever Bethesda does, the signal to bitching ratio have always been pretty low on the Codex, despite extensive coverage. But I agree that whining about the...

  13. King Arthur II Moving Pictures

    True, the graphic design is completely out of place but if you can look past that it's actually pretty nice. I picked up the King Arthur Collection recently so I'm replaying it. The main gripe I have with the game is the weird difficulty progression. No matter how fast I try to research stuff...

  14. Interview Skyrim Video Interview

    Cut the guy some slack, he's just asking the questions Hines allowed him to, i.e the one Bethesda PR wrote. It's that or no coverage I guess. 2006: Codex whines about the lack of randomized content in Oblivion because y'know, it was just so good in Daggerfall. 2011: Codex whines because...

  15. Civ 5 Lead Designer Jon Shafer Leaves Firaxis

    Jon Shafer joined Stardock to work on the train wreck of game that is Elemental and other future projects. Source: http://news.bigdownload.com/2011/01/04/ ... -stardock/ Going from a bad game to a worse game. Interesting career.
