9x – 7i > 3 (3x – 7u) – Translating Nerd into Valentine!

Ahhh l’amour! That wonderful, pit-of-your-stomach feeling you get whenever the apple of your eye crosses your path. Every touch, every smile, even the sound of them saying your name sends shivers down your spine. There’s only one problem: what gift do you get for a nerd that is both romantic and says “I get you”? You don’t want to buy a gift just because you have to – you want to get something that will make your love’s eyes widen to compliment that beautiful smile, and create a special moment you can both cherish. It also doesn’t hurt to look good in the eyes of the person you think is so awesome. Read On »

Talking Castlevania with Producer Dave Cox

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was one of the surprises of the year when it was released back in 2010. Taking a beloved 2D side-scrolling franchise and turning it into a 3D action adventure, all while rebooting the series as a whole was a bold move, but one that paid off, with Lords of Shadow gaining strong critical response across the board and becoming one of the best selling Castlevania games. With a sequel, Mirror of Fate, releasing for the Nintendo 3DS at the start of March, I sat down with Dave Cox, one of the producers of the series, to ask about the upcoming game and the future of the Lords of Shadow series.

Andy Borkowski – Interview With Cord Smith On Hitman: Absolution

***EDITOR’S NOTE*** – Andy Borkowski is a guest features writer and video game aficionado in the Toronto Area.  You can check out some of his articles and interviews over here, or on the VideoGameSophistry‘s YouTube Channel.  The video of this interview can be found below.  Enjoy!

Borkowski: Hi, I’m Andy Borkowski with VideoGameSophistry. We’re talking today about the game that I want to play more than anything, come the end of the year: Hitman: Absolution. Can you tell us a little bit about it?

Smith: Absolutely. It’s been six years since we’ve seen Agent 47 in action, and Hitman: Absolution is his most personal journey to date. It actually involves, at the beginning of the game, assassinating his long-time handler, Diana. This flips everything on its side, and it turns out he needs to protect a young girl through a series of events that span from Chicago out to the badlands and back again. Read On »
