Zelda: The Lost Oracle Trailer
The trailer for a new Zelda game? The Lost Oracle is what every fan wants and, unfortunately, not something we are likely to see. The trailer was created by Joel Furtado – ‘just for fun’. The animation was clearly inspired by The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker – but still has it’s own style [...]
Angry Birds Live Action Fan Film Trailer
To carry on from the Half Life Live Action movie trailer I posted last week, here’s a live action trailer for Angry Birds. To be honest I wasn’t entirely sure how this would work, but having watched it I found the whole thing quite clever and entertaining. Not convinced about the fact they call the [...]
Half-Life: Origins (Live Action)
What would the intro to the original Half-Life game, look like if it was turned into a movie trailer? Something like this I reckon. Apart from a few instances the effects work really well, and this looks like it was a lot of fun to make. It also doesn’t have the stereotypical cheese factor that [...]
Lego Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3
Lego + Cool of Duty Modern Warfare 3 = this How can you not like something that combines the best toy in the world with one of the biggest video gaming franchises ever.
New Amanita Design Game Trailer: Botanicula
Over the years Amanita Design have become the masters of the flash, point and click adventure game. With every game their graphical style has improved, and Botanicula looks as beautiful as you could hope. Based upon their previous efforts – such as Machinarium (I could have sworn we reviewed Machinarium, but I couldn’t find it [...]
Back again, but for how long?
If you’re subscribed to the RSS feed then you will likely have noticed that Binary Joy has come back. I don’t know how long I will post about video games here, but I have recently been noticing an increasing number of games that interest me, so I thought I would start writing about them once [...]
Voxatron Preview Video
Voxatron is an indie game being made by Joseph White (who also made Jaspers Journey, and Chocolate Castle). The game was first announced quite some time ago – and the video intrigued. Voxatron is a lot more action oriented that Josephs earlier games – most of which were puzzle based. Joseph has now announced that [...]
Miniclip Gamebar
Last week Miniclip.com released the Miniclip Gamebar. Not normally big news, a new video game toolbar, but since I led the project I thought I would mention it The Gamebar is a way for users to keep up to date with the latest Miniclip games. In addition they can get access to some exclusive ‘bonus’ [...]
The Simpsons Intro in Minecraft
It’s official – Minecraft can do absolutely anything! There’s some really creative solutions for the different bits of the animation (carts for cars etc). And I like the big square Maggie!
Mafia Wars 2 Trailer
Like many people I went through a Mafia Wars phase, but once you get past a certain level it becomes too much work – and you lose the satisfaction you get. Add on the constant drive to earn money (who do they think they are? A business or something?) and I just found it rather [...]
Game of Thrones – Genesis Trailer
Unfortunately this isn’t tied to the recent tv adaptation of George RR Martins awesome ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ series, but it still’s another way to immerse yourself in a complex world of intrigue and wonder. What I want to see next is a third person action adventure game, where I get to play [...]
Toren’s Tales
As someone who has done quite a lot of dabbling in game development I have quite a few ideas for games. One of my dream games to build has been a Zelda/ ICO hybrid – and it seems like Toren has beaten me to the punch. Of course – this hasn’t stopped my ideas, and [...]
Retro Super Smash Brothers – Super Smash Land
A video has been posted on YouTube for a new Gameboy game called Super Smash Land. Ok – not really. It’s a fan made game, showing what Super Smash Brothers would look like on the original Gameboy. The PC release has six recognisable characters (including a guest appearance from Mega Man!), eleven stages, an arcade [...]
PS3 – The Game
I first heard about ‘The Game’ on Sony’s Playstation Blog, and it seemed like a very interesting concept; You choose to join one of two teams, simply named Team A or Team B. Once you have picked a team, you can get straight into the action and take part in challenges which consist of mini-games, [...]
Modern Warfare 2 gameplay trailer
For some reason Infinity Ward have dropped the “Call of Duty” prefix but the game looks like a lot more of the same goodness that made Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, so popular. Some have said that the Call of Duty games were getting stale (and I think I’d agree with the WWII theme), but [...]
Just finished Serious Sam 2
Wow, I just finished Serious Sam 2 by Croteam. It’s an oldish FPS shooter from 2005 and it’s CRAZY! I loved the original Serious Sam because when it came out most games only ever had a few high-poly enemies on-screen at once. However Serious Sam brought back “Hordes” for more or less the first time [...]

Being a big fan of the Wonderland games I thought you might be interested in their latest news Wonderland Archive Online The Wonderland Archive is a one-stop destination for free custom content for the Wonderland game series. The archive is home to a plethora of user-made material, including over 13,000 free levels for Return To [...]

A Boy and his Blob is a re-imagining of a classic NES game with the same name. It’s a side scrolling platformer in which the character and his friend Blob (full name Blobert) travel together in a quest to defeat the evil emperor. As seen in the new video below the Blob can change into [...]
Felicia Day plays with Project Natal
Felicia Day, she of Buffy and The Guild fame, was caught playing with Microsofts new Project Natal tech during E3 2009. For those who missed it, Project Natal is a technology designed to allow you to play games without a controller. Taking cues from the Wii it removes control systems relying on watching the user [...]
Fairytale Fights
You wouldn’t know it from watching the demo or browsing all the delicious screenies below but Fairytale Fights, a hack-in-slash platforming fighter, is powered by the Unreal Engine; YES the same one turning the Gears of War. It was an easy game to miss at this year’s E3 but as I was picking thru a [...]
