Street Fighter 4 Officially Announced

Somewhere in the back of our minds, we all knew it was going to happen. Courtesy of Game Videos, I give you the teaser trailer for Street Fighter 4. I actually haven’t played Street Fighter since it came out for the SNES. I remember breaking a hole in the wall because Ken was such a […]

Zero Punctuation does Halo 3

I 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 […]

Rock Band: Big F*ckin Trucks?

As a contrast to Guitar Hero III’s face-melting song demo, Harmonix has dropped a Rock Band trailer featuring…uh…Car Surfing. Think Death Proof with Drums. That is, if anyone actually saw Death Proof. Regardless, there’s no gameplay footage, just some dudes (and a girl, because chicks dig rhythm-based games) hopping from vehicle to vehicle to the […]

Guitar Hero III: Good F*ckin’ Luck!

There’s a run through of a new song on Guitar Hero III that will make most people want to pack up their plastic guitars and cry in a corner somewhere. The song is called “Through the Fire and Flames” (which automatically makes it the best song ever) and it is pure GH insanity. Wrap your […]

Call of Duty 4 Hands-On

IGN posted a hands-on report of the Call of Duty 4 Beta a few days ago, and just now, Screwattack.com has posted 30 minutes of commentary and video, with the promise: “We’re gonna go on record and say we don’t think ANYONE on the net will have this much video of the beta this soon.” […]

We only have to kill 65,340,285 boars…

We’ve all seen that episode of South Park where the “hardcore” gamer is seen in a very satirical manner, as having no life. The episode finds its hook in the fact that in order to compete with him, the boys have to abandon their own lives. One of the hottest debates over MMO gaming in […]

Contra 4: It’s About Damn Time

1up has been teasing this for the past week, and I have to say I’m hella excited. (Did I just say hella? Shoot me now. With the spread gun.) I haven’t played an actual Contra Game since Contra 3 for the SNES, so I guess I haven’t missed anything. According to the preview that 1up […]

Call of Duty 4 Pre-Alpha Gameplay

GameVideos.com has a new vid up showing some pre-alpha gameplay for Call of Duty 4. The game has a new modern setting, which I must say I’m excited for. I got pretty burned out on all the World War II shooters that have been coming down the pike in the last few years. And, yeah, […]

Manhunt 2 banned in England; ESRB bestows AO rating in US

Well, it had to happen sooner or later. Because of its violent content and (ostensibly) its Wii-specific interactivity, Manhunt 2 has been banned in England. Hot on the heels of this decision, the ERSB slapped the game with an AO rating here in the States.
In a statement released to the press, Rockstar said:
We are […]
