GamesCom ads around Cologne
Aug/090
GamesCom advertisement is everywhere in Cologne at the moment. Not only that, but it seems like the electronics retailers are certainly taking advantage of the demographic currently in town. With 200,000+ attendees expected during the five-day event and GamesCom being open to the public (unlike E3 and GDC), it’s really no surprise. We typically don’t see marketing taking advantage of situations like this in the States — well, excluding really big Final Fantasy XIII ads.
Note: If you’re attending GamesCom and see interesting gaming-related ads around Cologne, drop us a line. Please make sure to put “GamesCom ads” in the subject and have the pic linked (we can’t take files, sorry) — and make sure we get your name for photo credit.

Impressions of Halo 3: ODST campaign — Life in a sandbox
Jun/090
Call us foolish, but walking into the Bungie demonstration of Halo 3: ODST at E3 last week, we had no idea that the main campaign mode consisted of, more or less, a sandbox environment. Truth be told, we knew of stealth bits and that, as per the title of the game, there was something to do with Orbital Drop Shock Troopers in the story, but not much else. Bungie’s Lars Bakken commandeered “the rookie” — the character you’ll basically use as a vehicle through New Mombasa’s variety of flashback missions — introducing us to the character in an opening cutscene rather reminiscent of previous Halo games from a style perspective.
