	Fable (video game) - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		An extended version of the game, Fable: The Lost Chapters, was released for both Windows, Mac OS X and Xbox on September of 2005 (although the Windows and Mac version was leaked by a warez group in August).
		The game centers on the only playable character, a male referred to by his title or only as the hero (all of the members of the Heroes' Guild, even those who are evil, are referred to as "Heroes").
		That quest was never implemented in the original XBOX version of the game although some of the elements of the quest are still in the game such as the letter written by her dead sister.

	Geek.com Geek News - California Govenor and Leland Yee comment on video game law injunction
		Recently, the California violent video game law that was supposed to go into effect January 1 was blocked by a Federal District Court (see previous coverage).
		Leland Yee, the sponsor of the bill is obviously displeased with the video game industry blocking the measure by claiming, "The $31 billion video game industry is not concerned with the health and welfare of our children; they are simply concerned with their own financial interests...
		Video games are protected under free speech laws and targeting something that isn't the solution, just an easy way out is not right.

		Exidy was one of the largest creators of arcade video games during the early period of video games, from 1975-1983.
		It was most famous for its lightgun games, beginning with the game Crossbow.
		These games were also the first to feature fully digitized sound, for all sound effects and for music (far more advanced then any other games up until the 16 bit generation).

	2Cool.Net - Video Game Reviews
		The game takes place in a set of four Volumes, which can be played in any order (even though the story makes more sense when you play them in order).
		The game gives you specific instructions on how to set your lighting for the game, and when played in a dark room, the pre-rendered scenes and unique lighting truly shine.
		The gore factor is pretty high in the game, especially when it involves body parts you carry leaving extensive blood trails and little imps doing back flips even though you've just blown off their head.

	Phosphor-Dot Fossils: Crossbow
		Armed with a crossbow - controlled with a fancy light gun mounted on the arcade cabinet - your job is to pick off any threats, be they nasty critters, falling projectiles, snipers, or what have you, and allow your friends to pass safely.
		Y'know, I had to play Crossbow on MAME to remember what the heck the game was about...but once I did, I remembered that it was a very influential game on me at the time it was released.
		The novel concept of picking which game screen you'd explore next by shooting a representative icon on a menu-style screen was very cool, as was the watered-down, vaguely-DandD-ish atmosphere of the whole thing.

	Crossbow Reviews Crossbow for the Atari 7800
		The game plays on the basic principle that you are protector for your friends.
		Also there is no 2 player mode which makes sense in a game like this but still the ole round robin method of two player gaming could have been done for some competition.
		If you like the arcade version or like any game of this type of genre, my advice is that you own a 7800 and you don't have this game...then you don't really own a 7800.

		This game used digitized speech to alert the players to their situation...
		This game was a huge hit in the arcades.

	CNN.com - New 'Dragon's Lair' disappoints - Feb. 13, 2003
		It was "Game Over" for folks who pushed the joystick in the wrong direction or if the timing was off by a second or two.
		Similar to games like "Tomb Raider," "Dragon's Lair 3D" is considered a "platformer" as the emphasis of this third-person perspective or "over-the-shoulder" title is on running and jumping, combat against bad guys and some simple puzzle solving.
		Visually, the developers at Dragonstone Software (www.dragonstone.com) obviously tried to match the classic 1983 game by using the now-popular "cel-shading" graphic technique, but "Dragon's Lair 3D" isn't nearly as attractive as its forerunner, not to mention the animation is stiff and choppy.

	Viewing Review @ Video Game City
		Instead, depending on whether you hack down the enemy with a giant axe (melee), dispatch your foes from afar with a bow or crossbow (skill), or pump arcs of lightning into their bodies (magic) you will get a certain number of experience points in one of those three areas.
		The game makes up for this by automatically dropping a potion or food item into the quick item/emotion selection that the D-pad serves as.
		In addition, the textures are a little low-res, particularly on villagers (of which there are many duplicates), for a game of this level.

	Walkthrough: Hamlet
		The only way to save the game is to exit, and once you are engaged in a puzzle you must complete it to exit the game (your other alternative is to shut down the game using Ctrl-Alt-Del!).
		The game introduces you to a "murder most foul." A video of the ghost of Hamlet's father reveals he was murdered and Hamlet is told that he must avenge his father's death.
		Aim the crossbow at the pennant of the Norwegian army.

		In the game lets say you need to stop a burning fire if there is a fire extinquisher around you can interact with it and use it to put out the fire (You can also use it to kill the creatures)
		If they are anything like the hunters, this game would be one hell of a terrifying experience.

	Coin-Op Museum: Chiller
		The game's four basic screens are a vice/guillotine room (or torture chamber), rack room (with a river of blood), haunted house hallway, and graveyard.
		Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operatos might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up.
		Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector.

	Ubi Soft Dragon Riders: Chronicles of Pern Game Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Although this does show D'Kor as a servant of his community, it detracts from the fun of a video game, which is supposed to give us relief from our daily chores, not add to them.
		Most of the game revolves around conversations and thankfully there's a voice track properly synched to the character models, supported by a set of subtitles.
		Between save games, you'll need to flip through both of these to remind yourself as to which particular story plot you were chasing down last.

		Which means it both melded with the game perfectly and added to the immersion or it just didn’t stand out.
		Though it’s great when any game has LIVE play, it’s disappointing that the max player count is limited (though its worse on the PS2).
		XIII is proof that mixing tried and true game play with good ideas borrowed from other games and adding a huge dose of style do make for a truly great game.

		The game was created specifically to coincide with the release of the much-anticipated movie by the same name, starring Hugh Jackman as the legendary vampire hunter.
		For the game, the Utah crew arm him with a variety of weapons, including a grappling hook and a crossbow.
		The result of the 18-month collaboration is a T-rated (for teen) game that has more than a dozen familiar monsters and a lack of actual gore, though there's plenty of fighting and even dying going on.

	Video Game Talk \| Reviews \| Enclave
		While I was initially wary of a game coming from the Xbox to the PC, rather than the other way around, Enclave pulls the transition off well and is a very impressive game with exceptional immersion and a unique money/weaponry system that pays off.
		With the gold you collect, you can buy weapons, armor, potions, etc. But where this game differs from most, is everything you buy can be sold for the same amount, so basically, you equip yourself for the level, run through it collecting gold, and then sell your stuff and get ready for the next.
		The game does take up quite a bit of hard drive space (2.2 gigs), but with hard drive prices this low, it shouldn't be a problem for most gamers.

		The only difference is if you complete the game you see a short sequence that says "Do not pick up any items at the police station!".
		To get the "S" rank on mission 1, complete the game in under 1 hour 30 minutes, only use up to one green herb, do not save, and only use a knife, handgun and shotgun/bowgun or magnum/grenade launcher.
		Successfully complete the game in two and a half hours or less, you can pick up items (only important things such as keys, card keys and maps recommended) but do not save.

		Games that my loved ones purchased for me for Christmas were all for the XBOX and PC.

	Video game makers win with P2P business model
		Trymedia Systems, a San Francisco distributor of video games, has confirmed what supporters of file trading have long argued - that the availability of free digital content does not dissuade consumers from paying for the same material.
		Video gaming is swiftly becoming the first industry to make money with the P2P business model.
		Trymedia conducted a survey of 500 game purchasers and found that the average P2P game buyers each month received three full-version games from friends and downloaded four games hacked from authorized copies.

	Another appreciated Oddworld video game - The Scene (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Hybrid first- and third-person games are usually watered-down versions of two genres instead of one, but that's not the case here.
		And most of the good things about Oddworld games - brilliant art direction, stunning CGI sequences, a great story with terrifically original characters - are back in full force.
		The crossbow holds two different types of ammo at once, and you're free to mix and match different types of ammo to match your attack strategy.

		Similar to games such as Tomb Raider, Dragon's Lair 3D is considered a "platformer," as the emphasis of this third-person perspective or "over-the-shoulder" title is running and jumping, combat against bad guys and some simple puzzle solving.

		As a followup to yesterday's news post on age ratings and gaming, there's a story out in the New Scientist on a new study that examines the effects of video game violence on the brain.
		I think that an earlier study should've been performed on people who've never played video games at all, instead of starting with MRI scans of men who play video games for two hours a day.
		Borland argues that video game violence is simply a form of problem solving, and that the brain treats it as such.

	It's Not A Video Game -- 07/28/1999
		Developed just as the millennium began, the crossbow itself was considered by many historians as perhaps the most significant weapon introduced in medieval times.
		It was with the crossbow that the French opened their attack.
		The danger is to see warfare as a video game and be seduced by the attractiveness of believing that you can secure foreign policy and national-security objectives with little to no cost in lives.

	Kids Domain - Review - Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Oddworld games have an undeniably quirky sense of humour, feature non-standard puzzle-oriented gameplay, and usually tend to purvey a strange kind of leftist, socialist dogma (previous games in the franchise have made subtle statements against consumerism and have been centered around workers who rebel against their evil employers).
		The game play is fun and well designed, but it’s also the stuff of standard action adventure games.
		The last three or four hours of the game are outstanding, providing the kind of peculiar, semi-socialist narrative the franchise is known for.
