You know, for all the big sequels and big new games due in the next year, none have me as excited as Red Dead Revolver. What can I say. I’m a sucker for scowling cowboys.
A Boy and His Blob was first released in 1989, but this trailer throws back to a slightly earlier time. I can see this running in a cinema, in 1985. And I mean that in a good way.
Dark Forces & Battlefront fans, you may want to watch this clip from Galactic Warfare, an upcoming Star Wars mod for Call of Duty 4. Oh, sorry, I just called it a “mod”. It’s not just a “mod”, it’s a total conversion, meaning the entire game – from handling to graphics to the menus –…

You mention “in-game ads”, people get shirty. Don’t like the fact they’re being sold stuff within something they already bought. But there’s less ground for complaint with in-game ads bought for a good purpose. The Transport Accident Commission of Victoria, a state in Australia’s south-east, have signed a contract with Massive – the Microsoft-owned in-game…
At the IFA Consumer Electronics show in Berlin last week, a Sony rep told Engadget that 3D gaming would be coming to “all” PS3 games via a firmware update in 2010. Turns out he may have been slightly exaggerating. Sony corporate quickly reached out to clarify the rep’s statements, saying that when it comes to…
Digital Foundry’s long-running blog on Eurogamer often throws up some interesting technical studies on games, but few have ever been as interesting, or as comprehensive, as this piece on controller latency. What’s controller latency? DF explain it neatly as: In basic terms, controller latency is very easy to define. It’s the time, usually measured in…
Keen for some visuals to go with Totilo’s description of one of Uncharted 2‘s singleplayer levels? Here’s your images.
As Stephen found out earlier today, Contra Rebirth is tough. Tough as nails that lived through two world wars and a great depression, only to emerge the other side looking for more ass to kick.
Fat Princess is soon to get a little fuller in the content department, with developers Titan Studio announcing at PAX earlier today a new map for the game. Called “New Pork”, it’s an urban map, with a sewer system running underneath and plenty of rooftops overhead. No idea on when it will be out, but…
Glad this ends up being a trailer for PS3 multiplayer shooter MAG. For the first five seconds or so, I thought it was a Streets video. In actuality, it’s a nice touch; the trailer features voice-over work done by some of the game’s community members and beta testers, giving the clip an air of people…
Introducing the Uncharted 2: Fortune Hunter Edition. It’s the game’s fancy-pants version, and includes a copy of Uncharted 2, art book, collector’s case and a replica of the game’s mysterious, ancient artefact. Sounds good. Only, there’s a catch. See, Naughty Dog & Sony want this to be a genuine limited edition deal. Not something anyone…
With a new PS3 comes a new PS3 logo, and with a new PS3 logo comes a new PS3 box. And a new PS3 box means all the cover art we’ve seen for upcoming games needs to be changed. First off the blocks is Uncharted 2. Old art on the left, new one on the…
We see so much Mass Effect 2 stuff that sometimes it’s easy to forget that the game isn’t out this year. It’s out next year. Bummer.
As expected, Sony have announced at the IFA Consumer Electronics show in Berlin that stereoscopic 3D will be coming to the PlayStation 3 in 2010. This kind of 3D doesn’t need a “special” TV (catch: you will need a 200hz+ set); rather, you just need a set of stereoscopic glasses, the likes of which you’ve…
As seen on Offworld.
Capcom do a pretty good job getting console games to the PC, but then, those are just ports. Building games specifically for the PC, well, that’s something else. But it’s something they’ll be doing in the next few years, with Capcom’s Christian Svensson telling VG247 “We do have a couple of products in development which…
Bit of a confusing message on the European PlayStation Blog this week. Fate/Unlimited Codes should be out this week, but a note on the blog says that it’s been delayed to…this week. So hey, it might be there, it might not be. Roll the dice, try your luck! If it’s not there, there’s a new…
It’s been a turbulent week for Wii box art, with two games – Sin & Punishment 2 and Ju-On: The Grudge – hitting the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. First, the highs! And, yeah, it’s Sin & Punishment’s Japanese box art (via Tiny Cartridge) up top there. It’s classy, in an early-90’s…
Scans can get you by in a pinch, but official, proper screenshots are much better if you’re interested in looking at a game. In this case, Capcom’s Okamiden. The first official screenshots and artwork for the game have been released by Capcom Japan today. And here they are!
