Eurogamer Expo 2010 Tickets Available
Posted in Events by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Thursday 22 April 2010 1:21 pm
Like promised, the Eurogamer Expo is back and ready to cement their place as the UK’s biggest dedicated video games event for a third year running. Taking place in London Earls Court for three days straight, this Expo just screams bigger – they could not have picked a better venue. Kicking off a little earlier this time around will give you a chance to play more “unreleased” games before they hit the shelves and makes the long wait that much easier. What are you waiting for? Get your tickets now and check out our coverage from last year!
MAG: Our Smaller Action Game
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09 by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Friday 20 November 2009 8:51 pmUnfortunately we weren’t able to take part in MAG‘s 256-man war, we did however have a stab at a smaller battle and can come out saying we thoroughly enjoyed it. A lot of tweaking needs to go on in terms of balancing the weapons but it’s looking promising, as well as requiring a lot of co-operation, patience and headsets.
Out of Her Hair Came a Dog
Posted in Bayonetta, Eurogamer Expo 09, PS3, Xbox 360 by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Friday 20 November 2009 12:46 pmBeing the first game I laid eyes upon, Bayonetta lived up to expectation and didn’t disappoint. Was this because it felt like Devil May Cry? Was it the fact she looked like a hot Sarah Palin? Or was it the giant dog that came from within her hair leaving her half naked? It was probably all of the above which can be seen in the video, above.
Lost Planet 2 Multiplayer Gameplay
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09, Lost Planet 2, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox Live by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Friday 20 November 2009 10:38 amDespite our terrible performance in other games that day we did manage to get our own back in Lost Planet 2‘s Online Multiplayer, even if it meant spamming the Vital Suit Machine to do just that. You’ll sense some familiarity if you ever played Bionic Commando earlier in the year, the online multiplayer mode will feature up to 16-player versus, 4 player cooperative mode, and will contain game modes from the previous game.
AVP: Respawn in 3,2,1…
Posted in Alien vs. Predator, Eurogamer Expo 09, PC, PS3, Xbox 360 by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Thursday 19 November 2009 11:00 pmPlaying above is Alien vs. Predator, and we’re the first to admit we’re awful at it. I think at one point the rep walking us through it decided to wander off – I don’t blame him! Read More »
Super Yum Yum: Baby Rescue Interview
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09, Interviews, PC, Super Yum Yum: Baby Rescue by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Tuesday 17 November 2009 10:39 pmDuring our wander through the Indie Games Arcade at the Eurogamer last month, we had a chat with James Wright from Airplay after going hands on with their latest – Super Yum Yum: Baby Rescue.
Developers of the BAFTA-nominated Super Yum Yum series, Airplay UK are looking to create an established console brand. With a DSiware version slated for Christmas, and the chance of multiple console releases on the horizon the future is looking awfully colourful… and that much more delicious!
What a Show, See You Next Year
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09 by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Sunday 1 November 2009 3:25 pmThought it’d be fitting to end the show with a montage, huge thanks to the Eurogamer Expo and HMV who made everything possible, they really put a lot into this and it showed. Thanks to my team (you know who you are), without them none of this would have seen the light of the day. Enough of me yapping, enjoy the clip and we’ll see you next year!
Wrap Up: Eurogamer Expo 2009
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09 by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Sunday 1 November 2009 2:48 pm
Just got back from London’s Eurogamer Expo and boy was it worth it! We arrived on the Thames nice and early and were amongst hundreds of gamers already in line, eager to get their hands this year’s must-haves. Kudos to the door staff who managed to get the line moving at an impressive rate, it wasn’t too long before we’d gotten through registration, secured our wristbands and we were inside!
More God of War 3 Demo Gameplay
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09, PS3, Sony by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Sunday 1 November 2009 2:47 pm
I feel like you’ve seen this footage 100 times already, it’s the same demo that’s on your hard drive by now and the same old thing Sony showed at E3, awesome nevertheless I might add. Incase you’ve just crawled from out a rock, served time in a federal prison, if shaky cams are your thing, or if you’d just prefer to see how we played it then this video is for you! Read More »
Here’s Some Red Steel 2 Footage
Posted in Eurogamer Expo 09, Nintendo, Wii by Raphael Essoo-Snowdon on Sunday 1 November 2009 2:46 pm
Didn’t manage to get my hands on the Wiimote seen as a lot of people were already in line waiting anxiously, so I decided to just watch from the sideline. The game itself looks bloody awesome and led me to purchasing a Wii MotionPlus the second I got home. Being dragged through the desert in first-person almost makes the game worth the 40 quid alone. You, the last remaining member of “The Protectors” are on a mission to avenge your fallen clan, revenge begins this Spring. Hit the jump for the video! Read More »
