Kickstarter: Virtual Reality is Here

Kickstarter has had both positive and negative stories in the past year, but here's a story that might amaze you and get you excited for the future of gaming.

I'd rather have a holodeck, but I'll take it.

I introduce to you the Oculus Rift, the concept is: a gaming headset that allows you a whole new level of immersion into your game worlds. Mananging to rake in a total of nearly $900,000 in just one day of being up as a Kickstarter - with a lot more money to come in the next 29 days.

Summer is Over

It's been a harrowing 10 days. I stapled my wallet shut just so that I wouldn't use it to buy every single cheap game that I saw in the Steam deals.

It didn't last long and I ended up picking up:

- Just Cause 2. Fun, sandbox game where you can parachute-grappling hook combo yourself as a means of transportation. Also a multiplayer mod is in beta currently so that's worth a look.


- The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. collection. Atmospheric, opressive, post-nuclear disaster survival simulator. GET OUT OF HERE, STALKER. Seriously good FPS series.


- Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet. Metroidvania title with co-op. Speaks for itself.


- Evochron Mercenary. Space Pirate/Adventurer Sim. It's like Microsoft's Flight Sim combined with EVE Online... but Offline. Has co-op too.


- Arma 2. All for the mod: Day Z.

The Co-Op Night #1

Blacklight: Retribution
Developer: Zombie Studios
Platform: PC


As someone who plays games a lot, I find the experience is enhanced 100-fold when you can play a game with one or more friends (it also helps if the game itself is good). So in these articles I'll be bringing you co-op games that I have enjoyed with my fellow gamers and introducing you to them.

Such a magnificent beast.

Today we'll be looking at Blacklight: Retribution (also known as BLR). A first-person shooter developed by Zombie Studios and recently made it's debut as a free-2-play game on Steam. Expect cash shops and a lot of negative attitudes, but a generally good game with high production values - most of all: fun!
