Misfits Attic has been busy preparing for the launch of A Virus Named TOM. First, this game has you playing as a virus. A bit of code hell bent on the destruction of a retro-future Jetson’s-type world. This virus, as you may have guessed, is named TOM. The game plays like a 2D grid-based spacial puzzler and has you avoiding what I can only call antibodies. I assume they are little antivirus bits of code which are out to chomp some malware flesh. You go about and turn...

Notch just posted some very comedic tweets; Step 1: Wake up. Step 2: Check email. Step 3: See we’re being sued for patent infringement. Step 4: Smile. — Markus Persson (@notch) July 21, 2012 But it looks like Notch is prepared to put up quite the fight, and, considering Minecraft has sold over 3 Million copies, that shouldn’t be much of a problem. Unfortunately for them, they’re suing us over a software patent. If needed, I will throw piles of money at...

You can vote once a day and each bracket lasts a week. So hop to it, because Celebi is...

The announcement at E3 that Criterion was developing the next Need for Speed game, and that the game was a remake of Most Wanted made me feel like a kid at Christmas. With the premise of a completely open world environment in which friends can race each other and likely compete by building their bounty, I’m more excited for a Need for Speed game than I have been in quite a while. In a recent press release, Electronic Arts announced some of the pre-order bonuses for...
