For eight consecutive years PC gamers have known that the excitement and pure glee of Christmas arrives early in the form of the adrenalin charged 53-hour NAG LAN @ rAge, brought to you this year by Alienware.  The giant of South African gaming LANs will see 2,080 players prepare to defend their honour with their [...]

As we draw closer to the Christmas rush, and the chaos caused by E3 has cooled, we take a good look at the massive lineup of games and gaming hardware coming our way over the course of the next year. We get hands-on with Mafia II and Medal of Honour, and give you our full [...]

This Christmas, there will be two ways to purchase Kinect in South Africa: The standalone unit for R1999.99, or the bundle package for R3699,99. Let’s take a look at what you get for your money: The bundle, which is arguably more attractive from a price perspective, will include the new “slim” Xbox 360, but not [...]

We just can’t get enough of zombies. No matter how many games arrive that contain this loveable undead menace, every time new info pokes up we get as giddy as a pack of rabid school-girls preparing to watch their first Jonas Brothers concert. Testament to that is this, our July issue, which shares with the [...]

We like Fallout here at NAG. Okay, we love Fallout. We’re nuts for it and soak up any juicy bits of information about upcoming titles like a $2 hooker, but what we don’t like is when legal wrangles prevent us from getting our fix. Hmm, perhaps we have more in common with prostitutes that we [...]

We knew it was coming, but this year’s E3 has given Nintendo a chance to put all the rumours to rest. The design itself isn’t complete just yet, but this is pretty much what you can expect the 3DS to look like when it reaches retail shelves on or before March 2011: Here are the [...]

If you like guns, and games, and logically games that have guns in them, then the EA Gun Club is exactly what EA thinks you want. No, this isn’t one of those things that involve Americans with Southern accents and trucker caps, the Gun Club will give gamers early access to beta programs, exclusive demos, [...]

…finally! Not just SA, but Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Poland and Russia will all be receiving their share of love from Microsoft. The service is set to go live before the end of the year [UPDATE: or sooner, if rumours are to be believed], which is the first time we’ve ever actually [...]

Microsoft’s motion-sensing addon for the Xbox has finally been named: it’s called Kinect. We’re going to pronounce that as kigh-nekt, because we’re cool like that. The device looks much the same as the Natal prototype we’ve seen all along, albeit a little shinier and slightly slicker. Microsoft revealed Kinect at a pre-E3 conference, where they [...]

It’s that time of the year again: to get all glossy-eyed over the next Call of Duty. In our June issue, which was delayed due to some unforeseen circumstances, we get up-close and personal with Call of Duty: Black Ops, mess around with XCOM behind the bleachers, peak inside the cupboards of Halo: Reach and [...]

The June issue of NAG, which you might have been expecting to see on shelf tomorrow, has been delayed until next week Thursday, the 3rd of June. Unfortunately, due to a combination of volcanic ash blah blah and the tons of FIFA World Cup stuff coming into the country, getting our cover DVD in on [...]

…Well, for five people at least. We received a ton of entries for our MW2 map pack giveaway, and here are the five lucky winners:

Okay, so we’ve been making a fuss about this, but to be honest this is as exciting for NAG as it is for everyone else involved. Fresh from the heart of Dremelland comes this press release, filled with all sorts of interesting facts about Ettienne, Dremel, NAG and stuff. Read on… Image courtesy Ophra for [...]

According to the press release we received this morning, there’s been a lot of speculation regarding the upcoming DLC for Metro 2033. While I don’t know about that, what I do know is that I like DLC, so here’s an opportunity to lay those rumours to rest, or spread some good news, whichever you’d prefer. [...]

If you’re bored or just can’t get enough of the new, buff Prince of Persia, then head over to Ubisoft’s dedicated website (or grab the the Facebook version if that’s how you like to roll) and get stuck into this little flash game. For something that plays like a slightly more  elaborate, brown version of [...]

[Update: Entries close tonight. Hurry up if you want to stand a chance to win!] When it comes to Modern Warfare 2, we’re about as obsessed as one could possibly get. As a result, all of us here at the NAG offices pre-ordered the Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package, but it seems that too few [...]
