EA Studio Showcase: Lord of the Rings: Conquest Hands-On

While browsing the games on display at last week’s EA Studio Showcase, wandering from Henry Hatsworth to Battlefield Heroes and beyond, one particular game caught my eye for a few unusual reasons. For starters, the game had not been featured in the presentation earlier in the day, leaving my curiosity piqued enough for a closer [...]

That game turned out to be Reset Generation, a retro-themed head-to-head puzzle/boardgame/combat mashup which would also be free available, for free, on PC.

E3 2008: Battlestations: Pacific Hands-On

It was somewhere around my visit to Eidos‘ booth at last week’s E3 that I started to realize just how many games are using the naming scheme “Something: Something Else.” This didn’t detract, thankfully, from my hands-on demo of Battlestations: Pacific, the sequel to 2007 WW2 RTS/action combat title Battlestations: Midway.
