Gamebits - by Liza

Spore

May 17th 2008 04:54
On September 7, 2008, the world will finally lay eyes on Will Wright's new baby - SPORE. And boy, the world is excited. A game of infinite possibilities, a game with Pac Man, Sims, and Civilizations type gameplay all in one. A game where you can make a tribe of Tweedy Birds and watch them invent weapons and perform rituals.

Creative gameplay? Yes.
Procedural animation? Yes
A whole bowl of awesome - YES.

Gamebits Waiting for Guild Wars 2

May 14th 2008 07:18
It has been a while since Arenanet announced the development of Guild Wars 2 and I have been ready and waiting for the new game! Now, an official release date has not yet been announced, but nosing around some local game shops, I was told that GW2 should be released sometime in September of 2008 - not long to go (crossing fingers).

I have been a fan of all of the past Guild Wars campaigns and the Eye of the North expansion for a while - right from the launch of the Prophecies campaign. But I must say, I am thoroughlly excited about the upcoming release of Guild Wars 2.

Some major points of the new game include:


-Different races to play as opposed to just humans.
-A more MMORPG style of gaming as opposed to the current COORPG setup.
-Massive battles for territory.
-Introduction of the Z axis - meaning jumping, swimming, and other such frivolities.

I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it
