I came across Shilo after watching their amazing Burma PSA the other day and I am really diggin’ these guys. All the ads that they have made are ultra original and creative. Oh and when I was looking at their site, their latest ad was for Mercenaries 2! Go figure! I am glad studios like [...]

Yep, that’s what we have been up to as of late, good ol’ brainstorming. As our artist Eric H chips away at the seemingly impossible amount of work we dropped on him earlier this month, we have been actively working on some smaller projects. I know it seems like we have vanished from the radar, [...]

Much to my delight rumors are buzzing that the awful upcoming Dragonball Z movie is being axed. I can’t get over this…maybe it was because they cast a girl whose filmography includes several season of ‘Real World’ and ‘The Inferno’ or maybe it was due to the fact that (as you can see to [...]

This week’s Duo Groupie of the Week is IGN’s Jessica Chobot. We are trying to get the easy ones out of the way up front, but Jessica is a staple in the gaming industry. Jessica is a video host at IGN.com and a staff writer on their website. The first thing that makes [...]

Yes Sadly, the games are over, and for the developers of these games (the masterminds who can figure out how to make tapping A until you get carpal tunnel an entertaining event), so is their moment in the gaming spotlight. I’d love to sit on their meeting today… “well people, sales were way up for about 3 weeks, highest they [...]

Blizzard’s cinematic team is unreal. If they all jumped off a bridge I am pretty sure I would do the same. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed every single video they have released and this one is no exception. This new cinematic is for the ‘Wrath of the Lich King’ an expansion pack for WoW and it is [...]

I hope this isn’t the first time you have read about Braid because if it is…well I’m disappointed in you. Braid, as the creator explains it, “is a platform game in a painterly style where you manipulate the flow of time to solve puzzles.” Sounds like a normal puzzler right? Wrong. Right from the get [...]

So Gametrailers.com just released a pretty substantial chunk of gameplay footage for the new Prince of Persia game coming out. We have already seen, and reviewed, their cinematic trailer which was pretty sweet. You can see our review here: http://www.theduogroup.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=52

I know exactly what you are thinking. How in the world did the Xbox 360 outsell this breathtaking piece of beauty?

Remember SimCity? Not 2000, not 3000, not 4 – but plain ol’ SimCity – the one where you had to run it out of a DOS prompt, and had a choice of three squares – Commercial – “C” – Residential – “R” or Industrial – “I”. Of course, there were other things to place like police, fire [...]

So, with our new blog we are going to start a few weekly posts. Graham is covering the “Studio Spotlight” and I will be covering the “Gamer Groupie of the Week.” Basically its like every other gaming site where I will try harder then a World of Warcraft player doing a pushup to find hot [...]

Most of the success of TheDuoGroup comes from the group of friends and atmosphere we were raised in. We have always been and always will be gamers, and most of our friends are gamers. To that end, we wanted to give a shout out to one of our good friends Matt Grevers, who has been [...]

So Batman: The Dark Knight has reached the #2 spot for all time grossing films already. They aren’t predicting it to beat Titanic, but that pretty much guarantees it a sequel. Now there are a lot of rumors flying around out there since the last movie did so well. Me being a [...]

T.A.G. SF, a unit of the Mccann Worldgroup, is a “Creative and Strategic Think Tank” located in San Francisco. Blah blah blah….Basically these guys are the ones responsible for the Halo 3 – Believe Campaign and Gears of War – Mad World and Rendezvous trailers we all know and love. Joseph Kosinski seems to be [...]

So most of our forum members already have this information, but we figured we would share it with the public. After the great success of our Metal Gear Solid: Cold Blooded Animated Short, we have decided to go ahead and make another one.
Despite many requests, this short will not be about the MGS universe, but [...]

So I finally got around to playing some Bionic Commando last night. I’ve been on a little bit of a hiatus from Xbox Live and haven’t really seen all the new games. Graham brought this one to my attention so I bought it. My initial impressions are that the controls could be better. You really [...]

We will be covering lots of different topics, ranging from movies and games to general tomfoolery…oh and of course updating you on our [...]
