If there's one thing that Commander Shepard, Nathan Drake, Agent 47, Marcus Fenix, and ... uhh ... Mega Man all have in common, it's not just that they're all video game characters -- they're also all white dudes. And Raven Software's Manveer Heir takes umbrage with that fact (and, more importantly, the fact that being caucasian is a rather pervasive theme across game characters), telling Develop in a recent interview that "There are a large number of hispanic and black children playing...

When Dell and its Alienware unit announced the Alienware M11x gaming laptop at CES last month we were genually thrilled. The promise of a small-ish laptop (11 inch display and 4.5 pounds) that could run even high end PC games well would seem to be the Holy Grail. Now comes word that the product is available for sale at Dell's online store.
The starting price for the product is $799. That gets you a PC with a Intel Pentium SU4100 at 1.3GHz and a 2MB Cache, a NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M... [Read More]

Last August, on the heels of poor sales of Wolfenstein, Activision made the decision to lay off a number of team members at its Raven Software dev studio. This week two separate reports claim the publisher has cut more team members from another studio and shut down a third one entirely.
The gaming PC peripheral company SteelSeries is staying busy with yet another new product announcement this week. This time it's for their new Siberia V2 gaming PC headset. This is actually the second version of a product line that SteelSeries launched five years ago.
The headset has 50mm speakers that SteelSeries says will give gamers "crystal clear high, low, and mid-tones" sounds in their ears. There's also a retractable microphone for chatting with others. The new... [Read More]
It seems the unfortunate rumors we've been hearing to this effect for some time are true -- Raven Software has confirmed that a round of layoffs recently hit the developer (reports range from 30 to 56 folks cut from the studio's 180-man staff). Raven and Activision issued a statement explaining that after releasing X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Wolfenstein so close together, the Raven is "slightly reducing its workforce to better reflect the studio's upcoming slate," which only...
