- Roll7 announces NEW Multiplayer Action Title – Laser League! - 9 June 2017
WE MADE A NEW THING! A multiplayer thing with more lasers and neon lights than you can shake a stick at. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTxNX2r7I9I WHAT IS LASER LEAGUE?! In Laser League, the exhilarating, high-octane contact sport of 2150, players battle against the opposition for control of nodes that bathe the arena in deadly light. Evading rival colored beams, teams attempt to fry their opponents with speed, strength and strategy. Special offensive and defensive abilities, as well as game-changing power-ups on the arena floor, provide an edge at the crucial moment. Like all great sports, it is accessible and immediately understandable, but rewards dedication with deceptively complex strategic possibilities. Interested? We hope so, as we’re going to need your help in the Laser League BETA! At Roll7 we are extremely greatful for the love and support our fans have shown us over the ye…

- Have You Played OlliOlli? - 15 August 2016
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. Or OlliOlli 2 , whatever you want. I prefer the look of the first one, with it s crunchy pixels and bloodied sprites. Because that s what happens in this skateboarding game, you mess up your trick, fall from 10 feet, crack your bones, roll, bleed and eventually come to a stop. It s delightful. …
- Do A Bodacious Grind In OlliOlli2, Out Today - 12 August 2015
Because I know what a rad bunch of dudes, dudettes and dudeys you are, I bring news of the release of OlliOlli 2 on PC. Fully titled ‘Welcome to Olliwood’ it’s the follow-up to 2014’s hottest PC skateboarding sim that let you kick-flip on a dinosaur’s back. This one features just as many mad locations and odd places to grind, with a bunch of new modes, options and variations as well. They’re all laid out in the below launch trailer which my decidedly uncool brain understands roughly 20% of. At most. …

- Wins For Braben, Mordor And Alien: BAFTA Game Awards - 13 March 2015
Last night, BAFTA gathered in London to dish out sinister metal masks to a chosen few gamesfolk who had been found worthy of such an honour. I tend to be dismissive of Awards Shows, unless something that I really like wins a tiny trophy – then I’m quite happy and momentarily convinced that the world is just and right. It happened with Cave Johnson at this year’s Academy Awards (I’m ambivalent about Birdman) and at the 2015 BAFTA Game Awards it happened with…Destiny as best game? Oh no. Full results below. …
- OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood announced, not yet confirmed for PC - 25 September 2014
As if the OlliOlli/Tony Hawk Pro Skater connections weren't already strong enough, the newly announced OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood is much like Tony Hawk's first sequel adding manuals to the trick mix. Just announced at EGX in London, it's currently only confirmed for PS4 and PS Vita. But, given the trajectory of every other seemingly console-exclusive indie game, and the fact that OlliOlli 1 has recently arrived on Steam, I think an eventual PC release is all-but guaranteed. A trailer shows more of those sweet 2D combos: I've a lot of love for OlliOlli, as should be obvious from my recent review. It's a clear return to the skill-based skaters of the kind that, for some reason, aren't really being made any more. In addition to the grind-to-surface-to-grind enabling manual manoeuvre, the sequel will add ramps, reverts, "epic hills" and multiplayer. The game is due out on the aforemen…

- OlliOlli review - 22 July 2014
If OlliOlli proves anything, it's that skating games, unlike the sport that inspired them, aren't yet pass . It perfectly captures the layered thrill of not only mastering a route, but also enhancing it through a performance of tricks and personal flair. There are missteps, for sure, but the core act of flipping, grinding and spinning ensures the action remains stimulating across its many challenging levels. OlliOlli looks like a more colourful Canabalt, sounds like the final hours of an electronic club set, and plays like a cross between Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and EA's Skate. The action is centred mostly around the left analogue stick. Yes, you can technically use WASD, but don't the keyboard controls aren't pretty. With a 360 pad in hand, you flick the stick to launch your side-scrolling skater man into a trick, and once in the air hold it down in any direction to grind a rail. Once i…

I only see a black/white screen when I start the game, how can I fix this? A. There is a known issue with a limited number of graphics cards where this occurs.
