Vader and Yoda in Soul Calibur 4
Wednesday, January 9th, 20081up has a story up today about the first batch of bonus characters that will feature in Soul Calibur 4. Thus far, Namco has only revealed Darth Vader and Yoda, but 1up’s James Mielke speculates that they’ll probably release other characters as well, possibly as DLC, since they already went to the trouble of obtaining […]
Bionic Commando Can Jump!
Thursday, December 13th, 2007GameVideos.com has just released a new video of the upcoming XBox version of Bionic Commando. And as you’ll see, not only can the dude pick up and whip boxes, vehicles, and even unsuspecting Nazis (Probably not Nazis), he can also JUMP! Since the NES version is notorious for the Commando’s lack of ups, […]
I Hate 9-Year-Olds.
Sunday, December 2nd, 2007Okay, so I know I’ve posted my fair share of Guitar Hero III stuff (and Dragonforce in particular, those bastards), but I couldn’t resist this one. Above is a 9-year-old who most likely doesn’t have any friends. Not because he plays Guitar Hero III, but because accomplishing what he does requires that you sit […]
GTA IV Box Art Revealed. How Exciting.
Thursday, November 29th, 2007Rockstar Games revealed GTA’s box art this week, letting everyone get a glimpse of what will be hidden on their shelf for the next 3 years. Since the game has already been delayed until next year, this splashy new reveal does nothing for me. Who gets excited about the cover of a game? […]

Greenpeace has released a ‘Guide to Greener Electronics‘ List, ranking the top manufacturers based on their policies on toxic chemicals and recycling. And guess who ended up in DEAD last? Family-friendly Nintendo!! How bad did they do? Here’s a brief snippet from Greenpeace:
Nintendo - New to the guide - first global […]
Assassin’s Creed Alternatives
Wednesday, November 14th, 2007The reviews are starting to come in on the uber-hyped Assassin’s Creed (did I really just watch a South Park episode that only took breaks to show Assassin’s Creed commercials?), and the consensus is that it’s totally…well, you know…fine. Many of the complaints ( IGN, 1up) cite the repetition of intelligence gathering and […]
DragonForce: A Video Game Paradox
Monday, November 12th, 2007According to Wired Magazine’s Blog, the band DragonForce’s music sales have increased 183% over the past week due to the inclusion of “Through the Fire and Flames” on Guitar Hero III. Now, there’s something incredibly strange about this, because after massacring the song during an online faceoff a few days ago, I realized I […]
Rare Talks Viva Piņata And The Future
Thursday, October 18th, 2007Gamasutra had an interesting interview recently with Rare software engineer James Thomas and designer Justin Cook, both key figures in the Viva Piņata franchise, about being overshadowed by Gears of War, and the company’s history and future.
After the company’s founders, the Stamper brothers, left after finishing Viva Piņata, there was a lot of doubt as […]
Zero Punctuation on Orange Box
Thursday, October 18th, 2007Before I say anything else, you NEED to go buy The Orange Box. I don’t care whether you get the boxed copy from EB (although I’ve been hearing some backlash around the community over the box art; I don’t think it’s that bad) or you get it from Steam. BUY IT. Anyway, here’s another installment […]
Zero Punctuation does Halo 3
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007I have posted in a while, and it was about Halo 3 last time, too. Last time, I promise. Anyway, if you haven’t yet, you NEED to check out this guy’s work here. This is his latest video, but he’s got about 10 more. Every video absolutely skewers the game in question. If you don’t […]
OH EM GEE!! A Real Life Warthog
Tuesday, September 18th, 2007This video surfaced today of what appears to be a real, breathing, warthog vehicle. The accents lead me to believe this was shot in New Zealand. Speculation on other sites is that it’s a prop for the Halo film which was being produced in part by Peter Jackson - hence the New Zealand […]
eBoobs! Mass Effect To Feature Sex And Breast Nudity
Tuesday, September 18th, 2007As if Mass Effect didn’t already have enough reasons to attract droves and droves of geeks …
RPG? Check. Science Fiction setting? Check. Developed by Bioware? Check.
Well, now you can chalk up a few more reasons. Our friends at Pro-G (okay, we don’t really have any friends at Pro-G … at least, none […]
