Blueonic and King Baby Duck interview the Newburyport-based developers Muzzy Lane. In the past they have brought us many awesome educational games, and now they bring us the concept of being a congressmen in Government In Action.

At PAX East this past year we checked out a game that really knew how to scare the pants off of us: Outlast, the first title from Red Barrels.

A familiar scene unfolded in the opening moments of BioShock Infinite. One lone lighthouse within a vast ocean, inside a strange kind of transport that leads to a destination that is beyond your wildest dreams. This time around you aren't going down to Rapture; rather, it is the opposite. High above the clouds you soar in a rocket ship, towards what some may claim to be the next-best thing to Heaven: Columbia.

The Vagabonds guest-star in this post-PAX East episode.

We got a sneak peek of Twisted Pixel's upcoming title, and you'll be able to see it with a first-person perspective.

Ah yes, I love shooting many robots so much I just had to download the Android version of Shoot Many Robots. No, it's not just because I'm the only one in B3 that owns an Android phone; it's because this game is really that fun!

King Baby Duck and Blueonic chat with two game developers at PAX East that were showing off their goods: one favorite of theirs and a newbie that's hoping to make waves with a new horror title.

As a game reviewer I need all the concentration I can get when playing through any title. It's not because I don't want to bothered (okay, maybe a little bit), but rather it's due to the fact that I need to be able to point out every single pixel, sound, action, and just about everything else that is featured in a video game. I won't lie when I say it's hard to do this when even the smallest sound outside of your gaming realm can sometimes distract you. Fortunately I've found a great solution to this little gaming issue in the form of Plantronics' GameCom Commander, the official headset of the Electronic Sports World Cup.

Recently I got to do a video interview with the Senior Technical Marketing Analyst of NVIDIA Andrew Coonrad. He showed me their upcoming controller, Project SHIELD,  that features a built-on screen, giving you the capabilities of walking away from the computer and enjoying the game in another part of your house without dragging a wire around. Using the video graphics card of NVIDIA this new controller will get those very sweet graphics right in the palms of your hands.
