Animal Crossing isn’t the only game that has real staying power in my Wii/Wii U… five years now after the release of Wii Fit (Seriously? Five years? That’s insane!), I still use it nearly every day. And as you can see from the chart...

Dear Diary,
Well, I made the big move to Geneva this week. It was hard saying good-bye to my friends in Narnia (especially since I didn’t really have the ability to bid anyone farewell), but I’m ready to turn over a New Leaf (get it?) and...
As you can tell from my shirt (not that you can see it in the thumbnail), I went to see Star Trek Into Darkness this weekend. And despite what a lot of people on the interwebs seem to be saying, I rather enjoyed it. A lot more than this last series of Doctor Who, which is getting a lot of love for some reason. And I’ve been playing more than Animal Crossing: New Leaf this time around! Swear! Make the jump and watch the video to find out what!
The Game Developer’s Conference may have been just about a month ago, but that doesn’t mean it’s too late to talk about some of the conference’s biggest stories while sipping mimosas. Join myself, David Edison, and special guest Matt Conn (founder of GaymerConnect) as we spill some GDC tea. What does Yetizen actually do? Is Brenda Romero our flawless queen? (hint: yes) And can the FOX Engine outdo grindr when it comes to camera angles?
The answers to these questions and more can be found in our belated GDC Recap:

Gay gaming documentary Gaming In Color has officially reached its Kickstarter goal, meaning that the project is fully funded and can begin production! It was a close race to the finish line, but this past Friday the film managed to reach its $50,000 funding goal during the last 48 hours of its campaign.
“With the minutes ticking on the remainder of the Kickstarter, we want to give everyone a change to get those upgrades in the last minute! Fancy a shirt? Perhaps you want to try out that new game?
We also wanted to say “Thank You”. Not only because you helped make this film a reality but because this is your story. Even if you aren’t marginalized, even if you don’t consider yourself much of a gamer this is the story of people who want to make a safer space for themselves and others. It is people like you wanting to share their stories and have them be heard and it is thanks to you that those stories WILL be heard.
So from the start of Gaminig In Color and gamers everywhere,
Thank you!
And we can’t wait to show you just what we can do!”
While the project initially gained a lot of buzz, and nearly $30,000 in its first day online, progress halted for nearly a month before jump starting again during the final stretch. Over the last week gay gamers of all kinds sent their videos to Gaming In Color, putting their faces to the cause and making sure that this film becomes a reality.
Shadow of the Eternals, the episodic spiritual successor to Eternal Darkness, is coming from Canadian developer Precursor Studios through a crowdfunding campaign that has raised over $100 000 in one day for the title. Precursor recently released a nine-minute in-game preview of an early scene – one which should be familiar to fans of Eternal Darkness(this writer included) as it appears to be a re-creation (or a re-imagining, perhaps?) of a sliver of the Charlemagne-era Anthony mission from the original game, now bracketed by vaguely sapphic cutscenes about a handmaiden and her lady.
So why is Shadow a “spiritual successor” and not a direct sequel? Why isn’t this on Kickstarter? What, if any, involvement is there from Eternal Darkness developer Silicon Knights and producer Nintendo? Hit the jump to find out.
If you’re looking for some more information on the soon-to-be-released Animal Crossing: New Leaf… well, you’re in luck!
If you’re looking for me to talk about something else… well, you’re probably better off waiting until next week, because New Leaf has pretty much taken over my life, and I haven’t spent much time on anything else. Sorry! But if you want more details about how awesome New Leaf is, and a peek at my pretty pink house, make the jump and watch the video!
Bethesda announced quite the blast from the past today with the reveal of Wolfenstein: The New Order, due out towards the end of this year. Personally, I wasn’t into PC gaming when Wolfenstein basially created the super-popular FPS genre. I think my first shooter was actually Doom. But hey — Nazis are always a great villain.
“We are excited to bring a new chapter of Wolfenstein to gamers everywhere,” said Jens Matthies, creative director at MachineGames. “As fans of the series, working on this game is an honor, and our team is driven to create an unforgettable action-adventure experience that will make FPS fans proud.”
Judging from the deliberately teasing trailer above, it seems to me like you’re going to be playing as a WWII soldier who is awoken in present day where Nazis have taken over the world. I mean, that’s what I got from it. I could be wrong, but I hope not — that sounds like a premise with a lot of promise! And I’m cautiously excited for this one because MachineGames was founded by members of Starbreeze Studios, and they were responsible for The Chronicles Of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay and TheDarkness. So they know shooters! (Seriously, Riddick was great!)
More information on Wolfenstein: The New Order will be forthcoming shortly, so we’ll see if I’m on the wrong track. The game is set to appear on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC and “next generation consoles,” whatever that means. Wii U? Perhaps. More likely versions for the PS4 and Xbox Whatever-they’re-going-to-call-it when they’re released.
