Maybe you first heard ofPathfinder: Kingmakerfrom following the career of Chris Avellone, famed CRPG pioneer and games developer. Or maybe you saw it on Kickstarter and thought the idea of a video game based off of a tabletop game was a badass idea. Or maybe, like me, you first heard about it when you read CJ “The Human Torch But Only The Part Where He’s Flaming” Andriessen’shands-on preview....

A lot of amazing things were shown yesterday at the Microsoft conference, and adding to that long list of snazzy new things is footage for the Xbox Live title:Shadow Complex. Made by Epic Games, the footage of their title looks to be pretty promising. One of the first things that you can notice about the title is the fact that it looks like a cross betweenSuper MetroidandBionicCommado: Rearmed. Being a person who still wishes that Nintendo would get off their asses and make an updated 2D-esque version ofMetroid, I’ll take the next best thing if it’s out there....

At firstResident Evil 4seemed to have it in the bag, butWind Wakerrallied on page two, only to relinquish its lead several times. The trophy changed hands many times in the final minutes, but when the dust settled, here were the results: This week we take a break from our continuing theme of odd debate console-by-console tournaments, and move on to more pressing matters....

I don’t know if they are worth buying, though I honestly had no clue that a lot of more recent EA titles were available at GOG.com. I’ve kind of sworn off of the publisher ever since it created Origin, but having its titles in a DRM-free manner could persuade me to pick up some older “classics.” Then again,Crysis,Crysis: Warhead, andMedal of Honor: Pacific Assaultaren’t really worth much. I still have my DVD for the “Director’s Edition” ofPacific Assault, a game which nearly killed theMedal of Honorfranchise....

Both versions will get simultaneous updates Upon seeing thatGuild Wars 2was getting a Mac version, I had to rub my eyes and look again.

It’s worth pointing out that this is technically a beta version, but it is hooked up to live servers, meaning Mac gamers can play with the currentGuild Wars 2populous....

My Black Friday excursions aren’t about fighting crowds; they’re about blending into crowds....
