Best Games of the First Half

With terrific releases throughout the first half, and even some great games in the usually dead Spring, we felt it necessary and compelling to ask about what some of yours (and ours) favorite games of the year have been.

Possible Mass Effect DLC Announcement This Week

Those of you looking to wet your whistle with some Mass Effect might be in luck this week.  The Biofeed and MassEffect2 Twitter accounts have said that there may be news this week regarding the upcoming Mass Effect DLC.  The first and only (thus far) Mass Effect DLC pack was called “Bringing Down the Sky”…

PAX 2009: GFW Radio: The Revenge

Gaming podcast junkies can now rejoice.  Former-GFW Magazine editor, Jeff Green, has made it apparent (unless there’s a huge misunderstanding on our part), from his Twitter, that there will be a GFW Radio reunion at PAX. Green tweets: In my inbox: “Congratulations, your PAX 2009 panel submission of ‘The Brodeo Reunion “LIVE!” at PAX ’09’…

Twitter: The Best Video Game Secret?

Raise your hands, class. How many of you have heard of Twitter? Now, how many of you actually have a Twitter account? Less hands I see. Well, shame on you.

This delay was due to technical problems…

The SideQuest Episode #108: Wing Damaged

This week, a very special podcast. Join us as we welcome Jesse Gregory, aka Main Finger, as we thank him for our podcast music as well as speak about games and general geekery. Ryan records from a helicopter over the Pacific, Mike makes Dali eat humble pie, and Dali is sick again from the E3 Swine Flu epidemic. Oh, and Yaniv does not make an appearance.

Who’s To Blame For Pricey PS3 Titles?

I love video games. Like most of you, I spend my night pouring over sites like Joystiq and scraping the corners of Twitter for the latest from all corners of the industry. What’s next? What’s big? Who’s “winning”? These are just some of the questions that we may ask ourselves on a daily basis. However,…
