Happy New Year

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! to everyone - yeah, it’s late by a week but it’s better late than never right? Honestly 2008 was a superb year for gamers and gaming in general - with sequels dominating the scenes.Surprisingly, 08 was also the year for small developer as XLBA and PSN opened new doors for downloadable games.

However, the new year is not as bright for some especially for team 1up which saw a major shift of famous bodies in wakes of UGO acquisitions. Pretty sad to the gaming communities as the popular 1up shows/podcasts was one of the more informative and fun.
