How Do You Make Something Work That Already Hasn’t Worked? Twice.
I’ve been in search of a new project for months now. Pretty much my whole life I’ve had something creative to do in my spare time but I’m struggling to come up with anything at the moment. There are ideas, but I seem to run out of motivation for them really quickly. In the last few months, I’ve wanted to write a sitcom, sketch show, film, start a gaming fanzine, start a geek fanzine, and more…
Trouble is, my mind keeps pulling back to an idea I’ve already had. Something I’ve wanted to make work for a really long time - since 1998, truth told - is a show about videogames. It’s not easy, the competition is excellent and I’ve already failed at it twice in recent years! But that just makes we want to keep trying. I’m passionate about games and love putting TV shows together, I’ve got an amazingly talented group of friends and acquaintances who I know could knock this out of the park if we got it right and ultimately it’s the only thing I want to do.
Maybe I’ll have a bigger think about it this week. Not next weekend though, The Last Of Us is out, so I’ll probably just play that!

Tomb Raider Community Event: Paris
Over the last few days I’ve been lucky enough to host a pair of TR community events in Paris, showing off the game to webmasters, cosplayers, fan artists, and more! The first event took place at the Musée de la chasse et de la Nature, in a similar vein to the press demo earlier that day. Attendees were treated to an extended gameplay session, some great grub, and exclusive souvenirs. The following day a second batch of fans visted the Square Enix France office and given a sneak peek of new gameplay followed by a nice Parisian lunch. We concluded the outing with an afternoon at The Guimet Museum, inspired to check out the ancient Japanese collection by ties to the upcoming Tomb Raider.
To the Tomb Raider community in France - thank you for such a lovely couple of days!
Remember Me FIRST LOOK
Thanks for the memories! Remember Me - coming May 2013 - places you in the role of Nilin in a 2084 surveillance state version of Paris called Neo-Paris. Nilin has had her memories wiped by her former employer Memoreyes, and is out to rediscover who she is and why she’s was neutralised by her old paymasters. The game will start with Nilin in prison. Remember Me will intorduce the gameplay mechanic of ‘memory remixing’ and will allow you as the player to go into other peoples memories and alter them in order to change their perceptions and reactions to the situations around them. Through the Combo Lab portion of the game, you’ll also be able to build and chain together your own combos for the fighting parts of the title. Sounds good, right? Check out our brief first look, featuring Remember Me gameplay footage, and keep it GameTank as we’ll be following this up in the coming months! BANG! // With: Dan & Brendan
