I got the chance to speak with Marc Clement from Skreens at PAX East in Boston over the weekend. We discussed the Skreens streaming box, a cool little HDMI pass through box that connects to the internet to allow you to not just switch between HDMI devices but also do use multiple in the same screen. It’s an extremely interesting concept that definitely has use in the gaming space. Unfortunately, Screens’ biggest drawback is it’s price point. As we discussed...
If you haven’t seen the recently released Angel Stone cinematic trailer, you’re missing out on two things. A stunningly unknown story beautified with top of the line renderings and our Angel Stone and Munitio giveaway (ending soon); both of which will blow you away. One thing that kept me going back to watch the cinematic trailer was the centerpiece of the trailer, the woman in black, yet her mystique was so far from being able to pinpoint (her back-story, who she is...
This weeks 20 Questions will be with Paul aka WDA Punisher [PP] (Dont Revie Me Bro Youtube Manager, NoScope Gaming Glasses Sponsored) @WDA_Punisher 1)What do Youtubers do that annoys you? and gamers? [PP] Youtubers: What irritates me is when someone tries to be something/someone they’re not.

This weeks 20 Questions will be with Dan Mitre (Community Manager BF Hardline) @dan_mitre Seven million players got their hands on the Battlefield Hardline Beta from February 3-9, allowing EA and Visceral Games to gather a mountain of data to mine, feedback to read, and videos to watch. But rest assured, as Dan Mitre says, “We still hold strong to the March 17th ship date”. That’s great to hear that Visceral Games has dedicated so much time to listening to...
This weeks 20 Questions will be with Ryan Duffin (Senior Animator at DICE) @AnimationMerc You can not look anywhere today without seeing some sort of animation. From a logo on your phone to a commercial about car insurance animations are everywhere and in everything. Animations or the process of creating motion thru a series of pictures has evolved from simple pictures to clay motion, puppet, model, pixilation, 2D, 3D, mechanical, and special effects among many variations of...
This weeks 20 Questions will be with Dan Sheridan (EA UK Marketing Battlefield, BioWare, Need for Speed & Titanfall) @EA_ActionMan. Thoughts of the competition between the UK and the USA— police procedures, living standards, video games, laws, all crossed my mind. I read numerous articles on the all the aforementioned items and found it all quite boring. What I did find very interesting was that while United Kingdom and Canada continue to give tax breaks to game...

This weeks 20 Questions will be with Dan Mitre (Community Manager Battlefield EA) @dan_mitre As I write this over 159,456 players are playing Battlefield 4 online, just about half the amount who bought the first console Battlefield back in 2005. Compare that to the 11.5 million copies of Battlefield 4 sold across the world you can see that the series has become a giant in the FPS world— if not the giant. While the Battlefield player count will always grow, is the...
