That game's not using all of the screen which makes it appear to be some kind of port or emulation. The name of the thing suggests it's also an in-car GPS unit similar to the Gizmondo.

Can you give us more info.?

It really doesn't matter which network you go for because they'll all perform very similarly. Problem with QuakeNet is that you must maintain a presence there so you may have to shell out for an IRC bouncer or ask someone with a dedicated server nicely if you can put one on theirs. It's a good netwo...

I like the client Dan suggested. It's basic but clean and simple in Simple and Normal modes. Heavy and JS Support modes aren't worth bothering with IMO, not in this case. I guess this is left to Ben after Dream staff have done some experimenting. Now you know the public response and the pros and con...

One character was dressed in a white suit and hat, the other was dressed in a black suit and hat. Each had a pointed nose and a wicked grin. Each character was in the same profession as James Bond but probably not working for governments. The name of the game was simple and consisted of three words....

Two humans could play against each other or one could play against the CPU. Players laid traps for their rivals in doors and cupboards, which were actually the locations of the special items that must be collected. If the two players met, a sword fight ensued and the loser was temporarily knocked ou...

An electronic arm shoots out of the vending hole and grabs your palm. It attempts to read your fortune but abruptly cuts short after going into a description of a mysterious figure from the North, coughing and making excuses about the sight not being clear at this time. // INSERT COIN! // INSERT COIN!

"Go directly to Jail. Do not pass GO. Do not collect £200."

OT: Are you saying inserting a coin into the new machine caused the old one to rematerialise? They don't seem to be vending much but destruction!

The main characters were actually born in a magazine, before featuring in these games. This track is from the first game. The sequel took place on an island. I should point out that the in-game location in the original games on older formats didn't really resemble the one in the first version on the...

I have lots of community experience and advice. The idea to launch a chat room, like Dan said, usually pops up somewhere down the line but it's born out of thin air with no real reason behind it. If you want it to be used properly you should have scheduled chats as well as inviting Dream regulars to...

You receive a trip to a traditional French restaurant! However you are somewhat perturbed to find that you are only allowed to use the service entrance. Must be a VIP thing, LOL.

It's an old game that spanned multiple formats but version 1 was remade on the Amiga, and the sequel was released on it. It was a fast-paced game involving collecting shared items and reaching a goal.

Turn the controller on its side and it looks like a retro rectangular pad. Nintendo made profit on the Gamecube whereas Sony and Microsoft made losses on their last consoles. Have you seen the video of Japanese people using the Revolution controller as it might be intended, from a TV's point of view...

QWAK is a simply enjoyable game which is very challenging, cute but lots of fun. Me and my brother spent many hours playing it, sometimes p***ing ourselves with excited laughter.

I'm sure I've played a Lemmings game in the past that allows you to issue commands to your lemmings whilst paused. Having to rush around the screen clicking different lemmings whilst the clock is ticking and lemmings are doing what they do best, falling off cliffs, is more challenging but not a cruc...
