Dance music superstar DJ Tiësto will be providing two mixes and appearing as a playable character in the upcoming DJ Hero 2.
Wing Commander. X-Wing. Elite. Privateer. Some of my favourite games of all time, yet all were missing one thing that upcoming MMO Infinity has: the ability to fly seamlessly from space to a planet’s surface. Sounds trivial, but if you’ve ever played a space shooter (or space trader!) you know exactly what I’m talking about;…
These are a few of my favourite things. By Efrain “Fenryk” Farias, as seen on deviantART
Selling individual 250GB hard disk drives for the new Xbox 360 S seems like a predictable move, sure, but also one that until now had never been officially disclosed by Microsoft. Packaging shots for the 4GB version of the console, however, have shown Microsoft’s hand, revealing that in addition to controllers and Kinect, another accessory/upgrade…
Rapper and TV cop Ice-T is a man of strong opinions. He is also a man who loves him some video games. So what does he think of Medal of Honor’s beta? It’s hard to tell whether that’s Modern Warfare fanboyism shining through or not. I’m actually enjoying the beta, especially the objective map. Or,…
Pokémon games are normally quite tame affairs. The worst that happens is some weird animal gets knocked out for an hour or two. But in Pokémon Black, there is death, nothing but death, and it is all around you. Pokémon Black is apparently a hacked, unofficial version of Pokémon Red, which Tiny Cartridge’s Eric Caoili…
Minecraft is a neat little indie game that until this week had been getting by on word of mouth and forum recommendations. All that changed when Team Fortress 2 developers Valve gave the game a shout-out. Since highlighting the game in a recent Team Fortress 2 blog update, sales of the game have gone through…
They’re some of the most recognisable faces in modern pop culture. But have you ever wondered just who the men and women are providing the voices behind gaming’s biggest characters? Master Chief (Halo): Steve Downes What Else Has He Done? Steve is known to millions around the world as the voice of Master Chief, but…
Here’s your first look at some of the new NBA Jam’s old stars: Magic Johnson and Dennis Rodman. While we knew that retro stars like Johnson and rival Larry Bird were going to feature in the game, this is the first we’ve seen any of them in screenshots, and is the first we’ve seen or…
Capcom’s profits for the April-June quarter were down an astonishing 90.4%. A lack of AAA hits and the fact nobody bought Lost Planet 2 are being blamed.
You can keep your quasi-3D, Nintendo. This is the only black & white Pokemon we’ll ever need. By questionthemajority
Britain, here is your PlayStation Move pricing! £50 for the full bundle, £35 for just the Wand, while the Sub-Controller and PlayStation Eye are £25 each.
Meet Sony’s RayModeler, an autostereoscopic platform that can display 3D content not just without the need for glasses, but without the need for a traditional TV screen. Don’t think of it as a monitor. Think of it as something that can display schematics of the Death Star. Something many Bothans would die to get their…
It’s so simple; all you need is a mirror, some blue paint, and a love for Valve’s masterpiece in virtual teleportation. Suitably, considering this comes from Sweden, the mirror is from IKEA (a Kolja, if you’re taking notes), and the rest really is as simple as it looks. Just paint a two-tone blue border around…
To promote the upcoming retail release of the DSiWare series Art Academy in Europe, Nintendo Spain commissioned these classy videos illustrating the humble little program’s artistic chops. While it would take a deft touch and some serious focus to really emulate the classics – like those of Van Gogh and Carvaggio – the clip does…
Scott Campbell, art director at Brutal Legend and Psychonauts developers Double Fine, has marked the studio’s tenth birthday with this rad cartoon. It manages to work unused concept art, classic Double Fine characters and Eddie Riggs all into the same strip, giving us a history lesson and putting a smile on our faces all at…
Nintendo today released its financial results for the period April-June 2010, and amidst all the boring stuff are some points of genuine interest. Money Comes, Money Goes First up, Nintendo continues to see a massive decline in both net sales and operating income, the former down 25% from the same point last year, the latter…
One curious omission from Starcraft II at launch was the ability to jump in an in-game chat room with friends. But don’t sweat. It’s a feature that’s on its way. “Chat channels are something that will be added in a patch sometime after the initial release”, writes a Blizzard community manager on the game’s forums.…
That’s what Dead Rising 2 co-producer Shin Ohara reckons, anyway. Speaking with Gamasutra, the Japan-based developer says “Last year at Captivate we did a demo. We had a strip — It was probably like 10 meters wide and 200 meters long. We filled it with about 7,000 zombies. After about 3,000, you can’t really tell…
There are many games on the PS3 lining up to support either PlayStation Move or 3D. Or both! Valve’s Portal 2, however, is not one of them. For that, you’ll have to wait until Portal 3. “[Move and 3D] will have to wait for Portal 3 or another title,” Valve’s Doug Lombardi tells PSM3 magazine.…
