The state of 1UP

by Jonathan Downin in Blog, Features, Games604 days ago

As many of you may have heard, 1UP has been bought by UGO and this means many things, many of which we don’t know yet.  One thing we do know is that The 1UP show is done.  It really is shame to see such a great and unique take on the gaming scene go away.  It was certainly something that made Fridays worth the wait every week for me. It will be interesting to see what happens to the other 1UP productions like 1UP Yours, 1UP FM and LAN Party in the wake of this.  This story will be updated as more information comes in.  We wish everyone ...

The 1UP Show: Episode 12/19/08

by Jonathan Downin in Games622 days ago

Last 1UP show of the season here.  Can we possibly hold out for a special or anything next week?  We can only hope. I haven’t been following Noby Noby Boy much but it really looks crazy.  I was a fan of this the creator’s previous series, Katamari Damacy, so count me as eager to give this one a shot.  As much as it seems innovation and quality of western developed games are surpassing there eastern counterparts, you just don’t see this kind of thing out of the west. Street Fighter 4 looks good in that “does anybody still...

The 1UP Show: Episode 12/12/08

by Jonathan Downin in Games629 days ago

This week the 1UP guys and gals are covering Flower.  This is the next game from the people who brought is flow on PSN.  I wasn’t a big fan of flow, but I could appreciate the style.  Flower looks to continue the avant garde style, but with even more chilled out gameplay this time around.  Can’t wait. On this week’s 1UP Show, we import LocoRoco 2, preview Flower, and give impressions on Wrath of the Lich King. Is LocoRoco 2 more fun than its predecessor? How mesmerizing are the visuals in Flower? Is World of Warcraft more addicting...

Coming in at a hefty 35:58 this week we get to see and hear about three games this week; 2 big, next-gen affairs and one PS2 game.  One great thing about The 1UP Show is getting so many different perspectives on the games covered. Killzone is looking great, which almost nobody expected and Prince of Persia is beautiful as almost everyone expected.  Persona 4 looks… like an RPG.  Check it out. Killzone 2′s single player gets previewed and we give impressions of Prince of Persia and Persona 4 in this week’s 1UP Show. Runtime –...
