Just like starting over In a marked change of pace for typical Windows releases, Terry Myerson, head ofMicrosoft’sWindows and Xbox software division, demonstrated a prototype build of a hybridized Start Menu.

Nani!? Shenmueis a strange game that always fascinated me. The open-world adventure follows Ryo as he pursues his father’s killer across Japan and China, but sometimes he’s on an urgent search for sailors, and others he’s just hanging out by that old capsule-toy machine. Much like the Dreamcast itself,Shenmuewas ahead of its time in a lot of ways. An open world with a large cast of characters, tons of mini-games, and brawler-style combat might have been a little ambitious for the Dreamcast....

I can’t believe I’ve played all 16 years Ever since I created my Orc Warlock 16 years ago, I’ve been playingWorld of Warcraftannually. That sounds pretty crazy out loud now that I think about it. Nearly two decades of playing the game same: a sentiment that many have eye-rolled over the years as they waxed poetic about the “good days” ofWoWand how they no longer play it (or in the case of several people, have gotten out of games entirely)....

Martin Hollis, director and producer ofGoldenEye 007on the Nintendo 64, gave a postmortem on the development of the critically acclaimed shooter here at GDC Europe today. One of the more fascinating, and somewhat hilarious, aspects from the talk was how Martin went about giving007a quick last minute fix to save themselves some time. Martin interviewed his past team for the talk, and was reminded of this particular incident by his former programmer Mark Edmonds, who considers it his “craziest coolest time” during the development....

Simple, fun, and oddly addicting, 2006’sWii Sportsis perhaps the game most credible in establishing Nintendo’s early dominance in the casual market. In a fashion similar toWii Sports, Ubisoft’s upcomingSports Connectionfor Wii U aims to emulate that same formula for similar results.

The game pretty much plays like aWii Sportsclone with some added functionality for the Wii U controller pad....
