A look at the worst game mechanics ever employed in gaming. From level scaling to escort missions, these need to go. There is nothing worse than getting amped up for a game and realizing it employs a mechanic you dread. Game mechanics range from currency system to turn-based battles. Every game is littered with them. Not all of them are equal.
"It's that time of year when Federal regulations mandate that all media organizations publish their Top Ten lists. All of Player Affinity's gaming department will be rolling out our choices for Best Of in these last few days of 2011, and the PC Department is starting off with Fergus Halliday's choices for Ten Best PC Games of 2011:"
"2011 was another year of amazing gaming experiences and, for me and select other gamers, it passed virtually without issue. Unfortunately, many others seem to have gotten the short end of the pointy gaming stick. In other words, even though 2011 offered some of the greatest games released this gen, a few screw-ups, mishaps, let downs and straight-up bad decisions made some gamers feel like the industry’s only real goal was to get them to grab their proverbial ankles. Without further adieu –..."
"Every year, a handful of titles are released that just don’t meet the standards of the players. This isn’t about the licensed super-hero games based on the movies, like Captain America or Green Lantern. While these licensed titles are stinkers, the gaming community expects them to be. When it comes to the most disappointing games of 2011, hyped up games with potential need to be taken into account.

NoobFeed.com watches the VGA too, but was rather surprised at one particular entry. Therefore, Daav has come up with his own batch of selected trailers of other deserving participants. Some trailers are rightfully familiar, but there are also a few surprises which shouldn't go unnoticed. And hey; it's yet another way to watch clips instead of studying for exams.
"For gamers everywhere, E3 is the most exciting gaming event of the year. Announcements for new games, new hardware, and trailers are shown left and right. While not open to the public, with each passing year websites become better and better at sharing up to the minute information of the goings on. This year, it seems every large press conference will be streaming live for anyone interested. While no one can ever predict what will happen at E3 it's always a sure bet they'll release new game d..."
"In an industry flooded with generic first-person shooters and role-playing games, a common complaint among gamers is the lack of fresh and original content in the form of new intellectual properties. Sequels have become a driving force within the industry as the eighth Call of Duty is set for release later this year, and nearly every high profile title this holiday season has a number at the end of the title. While there certainly are benefits to sequels – building upon a universe, improving ..."
"We don’t know what it is about Deep Silver’s Dead Island trailer that keeps drawing us in. We’ve seen a bazillion zombie products before it (like A & E’s brilliant The Walking Dead series and a number of films), but the way that a family on vacation succumbs to the power of the undead is riveting, unsettling…and really sets the mood for the game that’s coming later this year. With that, we’ve decided to dig our way into the hordes of the undead to bring you our top ten favorite zombie games o..."
