    Robbers target games cafe, get beat-up

    Have you ever been to Hawaii? I hear they have some pretty crazy gamers. A trio of would-be robbers are testament to that claim, having been beaten up by a group of customers at a games cafe in Kaneohe just last week. Three masked assailants stormed the cafe collecting money from patrons, but when they asked one gamer to hand over his Nintendo DS, a line in the sand was drawn. SHORYUKEN! ...

    Sega Megadrive back on sale at Kmart

    It turns out Sega was planning to get back into the console hardware market after all, sort of.

Yes, it's legit, and it comes with two seemingly original-spec controllers as well a cartridge slot for your old games if they're still lying around. And it's only $49!

For starters, by pre-purchasing now, you'll get a free copy of the original game to re-explore, or explore for the first time if you for whatever reason missed it!

    DLC the way of the future?

    If you've ever felt that game you bought recently felt unfinished, 'then there's probably some basis to those thoughts. It seems that might be the trend for games to come. Comments from both Codemasters and Namco Bandai in recent weeks point to the companies looking to sell 'incomplete' games with consumers then having to purchase additional content and/or monthly fees.

    Happy 10th birthday, GU!

    It feels like an eternity since we first launched GU. In fact, it was ten years ago when what you know as Gamers-Underground.com began as Gamers@Octa4. When the Darwin-based ISP was purchased by iiNet, we decided rather than let the community die, that we would re-brand and venture off down our own path.

    Violent video games could 'reduce hostility'

    Almost strangely, and most certainly conversely to many studies publicised by the mainstream media, a new study by Texas A&M International University's associate professor, Dr. Christopher J. Ferguson, suggests that violent video games could actually make for more stable personalities among youth.

  • Mass Effect 3 review
    by cmdr_lynchie
    The first two instalments of the Mass Effect series are widely considered to be some of the best games ever made. Certainly they rank among the greatest RPGs. With the outstanding quality of their story telling, and their stunning audio and visuals, they set the bar so high for the third instalment that some began to wonder if disappointment was inevitable.
