Why some games make the simple task of putting one foot in front look like we've gone over on an ankle (which bloody hurts), we don't know? They should know better.
But here's a selection of our favourite comedy gaming walks, along with videos to g..."
"I played through dozens of games this year and tried at least a hundred more. And through them all, I experienced some amazing moments.

"Were just a few days short from finding out the winners of Unigamesitys Best Games of 2008 awards, but theres still a small (and rather unpleasant) step that has to be made now, just to make it easier for everybody to understand that huge budgets and obscene amounts of advertising are not the only things needed for a game to be considered a success.

"You've read about some of our favorite games of the year. Now it's time for the disappointments.
The games below, chosen by the usual panel of Wired.com contributors, is in no way supposed to be a list of the worst games of 2008. Those are all for the Wii, cost $10, are about dogs and/or babies, and we wouldn't be caught dead playing them. No, these are the games that let us down the most this year. Most of them are actually good games. But they failed to live up to the hype, or didn't del..."

"We've done our best to scour the pantheon of user-generated creatures to snag what we like to call the Top 50 Spore Created Creatures. By using an extremely experimental, and far-too-complicated-to-explain ratings system, we've been able to rank the creatures across three primary categories: creativity, execution, and tons of personal bias. We never set out to look for the run-of-the-mill creations that the internet is now flooded with. We wanted to find some user creations that take their cu..."
