Microsoft gave us a rather lengthy gameplay walkthrough for Middle-earth: Shadow of War, which lets you conquer Mordor and improves upon Shadow of Mordor's iconic nemesis system.

Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor was a big deal when it came out. It seemingly came out of no where, to end up not only taking several Game of the Year awards, but also, potentially laid the foundations for emergent storytelling with its unique Orc spawning system. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, it seems a second game might […]

Monolith have released statistics about Middle-Earth:Shadow of Mordor, showing some frankly absurd numbers. It turns out that if every person was an Uruk, nearly the entire earth's population has been slain by players […]

I've only caught one or two from this year as they've happened over the last two days, but I'll no doubt fall back into the show when I get some time over the weekend.Last night the whole affair ended with its annual game awards, and despite Dragon Age: Inquisition being given Game of the Year, Middle Earth:[...]

As you may have seen at the end of last year, I really love "Game of the Year"s. They are silly and asinine, but I can't help myself. I love rewarding games, and looking back over the last 12 months to congratulate excellence has always been important to me. The Game Developers Choice Awards offer […]

So here it is, Game of the Year, where I'm gifting the grand title that acknowledges the excellence in gaming in 2014. If you didn't check out the list of individual awards I handed out yesterday you should take a look. It has been an eclectic year for games with no real front runner emerging […]

It's not often audiences remember the names of game directors. There are of course recognizable names like your Kojimas and Miyamotos, but it's rarer in the West.
