No, that’s not a typo. Welcome to the Weekly Warp-Up, your weekly wrap-up of the biggest and the best articles posted at Warp Zoned this week…
This week we answer the most important questions facing the video game world today. The first question involves the very nature of what we call the things that we plug into our TVs and play with our phones and click with our mouses. Is it Video Game or Videogame?
And the other important question of the week is whether Binary Domain is a ripoff of our favorite sci-fi movies from the 80s amd 90s or an homage to Deckard, Reese, and Neo. Find out in our Hands-On Preview.
OK, so one is a lot more “important” than the other.
Oh, and don’t forget, our Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand contest has been extended through this weekend. Not really a question, but if you’re looking for a code for the PS3 version, be sure to enter!
More important questions will be answered if you hit the jump to read the latest Weekly Warp-Up.
