Thanks to my kind friends on Twitter for pointing this out. When I woke this morning the first thing I saw was this: Oh boy. Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh boy Oh…
Sharing screenshots is fun. In fact, the screenshot feature is in many ways the best feature that has been added in to this generation of consoles. It’s fun to share gameplay experiences, amusing anecdotes from the games, a indulge a little of the inner photographer in us. This week we…
Well, we hope that you’ve invented a way to stop time, or at least double the length of each day, because otherwise your backlog is going to get far bigger. Far, far bigger. September’s lineup of games is nothing short of brutal and we don’t think it’s humanly possible to…
Japan is a bit of a consumer’s paradise, selling a whole load of stuff that is difficult to find elsewhere (if not completely impossible in Australia). So naturally each time I’m in Japan I go shopping. The last couple of trips I’ve found myself largely investing in figurines to bring…
I am an avid fan of survival horror video games, and many of my colleagues here at Digitally Downloaded also enjoy the kinds of (gaming) experiences that will give them nightmares. So when an announcement surfaced that The Coma has been greenlit on Steam, we just had to share the…

The third entry in the Trine series shows an evolution of sorts by taking chances seldom found in established franchises. The team at Frozenbyte deserves credit for staying true to the heart of what has made this series work over the last several years, while making sure to innovate enough…
Okay, okay, it’s time to get Akihabara out of the way. I doubt this will be the only time I visit this year, because I do enjoy my time there too much, but given I was already there for the Final Fantasy XIV restaurant, I figured I would use the…
With my book, Game Art, being about a month away from release now, I’ve been out and about talking to the media about it. The kind people at Vice did an interview with me about the book, and asked some pretty awesome questions, which I had a chance to rant…
