Project Nomads is a 3-D shooter with real-time strategy elements -- and it fails spectacularly in both genres. By Peter Cohen, Macworld

Review: Project Nomads


Review: Project Nomads 04/13/2005 03:11 PM
Freeverse’s Project Nomads should have been a great game. At its core are a nifty idea and some truly lovely graphics. Too bad neither of these things makes up for the game’s horrific implementation.

Matrix online game hires real actors to
play in-game characters
03/25/2005 06:33 AM
Cory Doctorow: The Matrix Online (a massively multiplayer online game based on the Matrix franchise) has hired a troupe of 20 actors to hang around in game and in character, advancing the story and generally making it all seem more disbelief-suspendingly real.
Since the close of the beta, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced that it has employed a troupe of 20-odd people whose job it will be to enact narrative scenarios in The Matrix Online live. These people will assume the roles of popular characters, interact with players, and generally move the stories in ways that only live "actors" can. And though it appears that the story hasn't officially commenced, a few players on the Method server were treated to a pretty slick sample of it this afternoon: an extended pep-talk by none other than Morpheus himself. (See the screenshots for proof.) But this is an Out of the Box report, so here are our first impressions of the game so far.

The Playboy strategy game


The Playboy strategy game 07/15/2004 12:17 AM
So the Playboy the game is out and ready to go. I have to admit, it looks like a slightly more adult version of the Sims to me personally. The game’s makers claim that it is about business, but I can not help wondering what kind they might be referring to. Besides that, if it is like anything from real life, you can rest assure that the Geeks are not included. :o/

Video Game Controllers That Let You Play
Dirty
11/06/2003 04:10 AM
It's pretty common in many (though certainly not all) sports for players to go an extra step or two to push an opposing team when they're down. Maybe hit an opponent a little extra hard or try to add an extra shove when a ref isn't looking. It seems that some dirty tricks come naturally in many sports - but not in video games until now. There's a new video game controller out there that will let you momentar ily take control of your opponents controller. Sometimes it gives you full control, and others it just messes up their controller altogether. Consider it the video game version of an extra shove.

Thanks to everyone in Madrid for all of the hospitality and excellent company.

I'm off today to Rome. See you on the other side.

UPDATE: Just arrived in Rome. I had asked for a hotel with Internet. I realized when I arrived at the Hotel Hassler that I had stayed here once before with my mother and sister around 20 years or so ago. I remember it being an excellent hotel. However, I remember that they didn't take credit cards back then. Now they have Internet. I remember this was my late mother's favorite hotel in Rome...
